Solving Asian Maritime Security Issues to Promote Global Economic Growth: What Should Be Done?
The American Enterprise Institute presents a discussion on Asia-Pacific maritime security issues.
When:
January 28, 2010 2:30pm to 4:00pm
Where
The Asia-Pacific maritime domain has become central to a worldwide economic growth dependent on open sea lines and secure ports. Island nations like Japan and those of Southeast Asia rely heavily on the sea for resources and trade. China, whose global orientation is increasingly maritime-based, has a particular stake in maintaining free and secure passage on the seas. Yet competition over resource development, regional instability, and the security of global supply chains continues to affect the stability of this nexus of international commerce. How will competition over resource development play out in the coming years, especially in the East China Sea? How will trade be affected by piracy and other threats that endanger safe passage? Will India’s increasing economic and diplomatic relationships with countries in the region counter China’s expanding influence? What should be done about nontraditional maritime security issues such as sea lines of communication, shipping routes, world trade, and resource development?
These and other questions will be discussed by AEI resident fellow Dan Blumenthal, a commissioner of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission; U.S. Chamber of Commerce expert in trade and security Adam Salerno; AEI adjunct scholar and former U.S. Commerce Department official Neena Shenai; and Captain Gordon Van Hook of the Maersk Line. AEI resident scholar Michael Auslin, who directs AEI’s Japan studies program, will moderate the discussion.
