‘South – South cooperation’ and ‘regionalism’ have been the buzzwords used to describe new forms of inter-state collaboration after the end of the Cold War. This paper attempts to trace the emerging linkages between ASEAN—particularly Malaysia—and the newly independent states of Central Asia. It argues that it is a revival rather than an establishment of new contacts on the political, economic and security level that takes place here. Not only can contacts between the two regions be traced back to the ancient Khorazan, but also, during the cold war era, trade, non-alignment and multilateral cooperation were already important issues; they are reformulated and reshaped today. Cold war security has turned into post-11 September terrorism concerns, the debate on shared Asian and Islamic values has replaced former rigid ideological barriers, and ultimately contacts between the regions' corporate sectors have led to the emergence of altogether ‘alternative foreign policies’
