20th ASEAN Lecture - How to think about the Indo-Pacific? by Mr Bilahari Kausikan

The Indo-Pacific is a concept that holds multiple meanings. These uncertainties have not prevented Indo-Pacific from progressively becoming part of the regional discourse. ASEAN has also proclaimed its Outlook on Indo-Pacific at the 34th ASEAN Summit, a document which is read by many as differentiating the regional organisation's position from those of the major Indo-Pacific proponents. Mr Bilahari Kausikan will share his perspective on why this new concept developed, how ASEAN ought to view the Indo-Pacific, and how ASEAN should position itself in this nascent strategic concept. This lecture was delivered on 16 August 2019. For more information, visit https://www.iseas.edu.sg/medias/event...
