2013年日本对东南亚外交新动向

Abstract:In the year of 2013，Prime Minister Abe and other Japanese leaders in the government have frequently visited Southeast Asia，in order to further strengthen the strategic ties with AESAN countries. Japan attempts to improve its influence in Southeast Asia by political，economic，and military means. On one hand，Japan publicly intervenes in the disputes over South China Sea，persuading AESAN countries to contain against China together. On the other hand，all sectors of Japanese society accelerate its economic and political penetration in ASEAN countries，seeking to expand new consumer market and investment markets for Japan’s economic growth. In 2013，there has been rapid progress of Japan-AESAN economic partnership;However，it is less likely for Japan’s tactics of frustrating China’s rise by making alliances and combinations in AESAN to succeed.
