Comparative Connections, Volume 13, Number 2 Pacific Forum CSIS Comparative Connections A Triannual E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations edited by Carl Baker Brad Glosserman May – August 2011 Vol. 13, No.2 September 2011 http://csis.org/program/comparative-connections Pacific Forum CSIS Based in Honolulu, Hawaii, the Pacific Forum CSIS operates as the autonomous Asia- Pacific arm of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1975, the thrust of the Forum’s work is to help develop cooperative policies in the Asia- Pacific region through debate and analyses undertaken with the region’s leaders in the academic, government, and corporate arenas. The Forum’s programs encompass current and emerging political, security, economic/business, and oceans policy issues. It collaborates with a network of more than 30 research institutes around the Pacific Rim, drawing on Asian perspectives and disseminating its projects’ findings and recommendations to opinion leaders, governments, and publics throughout the region. An international Board of Governors guides the Pacific Forum’s work. The Forum is funded by grants from foundations, corporations, individuals, and governments, the latter providing a small percentage of the forum’s annual budget. The Forum’s studies are objective and nonpartisan and it does not engage in classified or proprietary work. Comparative Connections A Triannual E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations Edited by Carl Baker and Brad Glosserman Volume 13, Number 2 May - August 2011 Honolulu, Hawaii September 2011 Comparative Connections A Triannual Electronic Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations Bilateral relationships in East Asia have long been important to regional peace and stability, but in the post-Cold War environment, these relationships have taken on a new strategic rationale as countries pursue multiple ties, beyond those with the US, to realize complex political, economic, and security interests. How one set of bilateral interests affects a country’s other key relations is becoming more fluid and complex, and at the same time is becoming more central to the region’s overall strategic compass. Comparative Connections, Pacific Forum’s triannual electronic journal on East Asian bilateral relations edited by Carl Baker and Brad Glosserman, with Ralph A. Cossa serving as senior editor, was created in response to this unique environment. Comparative Connections provides timely and insightful analyses on key bilateral relationships in the region, including those involving the US. We regularly cover key bilateral relationships that are critical for the region. While we recognize the importance of other states in the region, our intention is to keep the core of the e-journal to a manageable and readable length. Because our project cannot give full attention to each of the relationships in Asia, coverage of US-Southeast Asia and China-Southeast Asia countries consists of a summary of individual bilateral relationships, and may shift focus from country to country as events warrant. Other bilateral relationships may be tracked periodically (such as various bilateral relationships with Australia, India, and Russia) as events dictate. Our Occasional Analyses also periodically cover functional areas of interest. Our aim is to inform and interpret the significant issues driving political, economic, and security affairs of the US and East Asian relations by an ongoing analysis of events in each key bilateral relationship. The reports, written by a variety of experts in Asian affairs, focus on political/security developments, but economic issues are also addressed. Each essay is accompanied by a chronology of significant events occurring between the states in question during the four-month period. A regional overview section places bilateral relationships in a broader context of regional relations. By providing value-added interpretative analyses, as well as factual accounts of key events, the e-journal illuminates patterns in Asian bilateral relations that may appear as isolated events and better defines the impact bilateral relationships have upon one another and on regional security. Comparative Connections: A Triannual Electronic Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations (print ISSN 1930-5370, online E-ISSN 1930-5389) is published three times annually (January, May, and September) at 1003 Bishop Street, Suite 1150, Honolulu, HI 96813. Table of Contents Regional Overview:………………………………………………………………………………1 Rays of Hope? by Ralph A. Cossa and Brad Glosserman, Pacific Forum CSIS Rays of hope were seen in several areas across the region. Dim rays of light pierced what has been the darkness of the Six-Party Talks since their suspension in December 2008, even though prospects for actual Korean Peninsula denuclearization remain low. US-China relations continued to mend at the Shangri-La Dialogue and the ARF; Vice President Biden’s trip to China added to the light. Hopes have also been raised for an end to political turmoil in Japan and Thailand with the election of new prime ministers. Aung San Suu Kyi’s release from house arrest provides a ray of hope for progress in moving Burma/Myanmar toward democracy. Meanwhile, the self-inflicted debt crisis in the US has further dimmed hopes for US leadership in Asia and globally. Looking forward, there are flickering hopes that this year’s APEC Leaders Meeting in Honolulu will shine a new spotlight on this increasingly overshadowed institution. Finally, the death of Osama bin Laden has raised the hope that this signals the beginning of the end for al Qaeda; others hope it will hasten the US exit from Afghanistan as well. US-Japan Relations:…..………………………………………………………………………..17 Kicking the Kan down the Road by Michael J. Green, CSIS/Georgetown University, and Nicholas Szechenyi, CSIS Kan Naoto resigned as prime minister on Aug. 26 after promising to step aside almost three months earlier amid dissension within his ruling Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) and dwindling public support after a clumsy response to the tragedies of March 11. He was succeeded by Finance Minister Noda Yoshihiko, who prevailed in the DPJ presidential race despite little evidence of support in the polls, but strong backing within the party. The US and Japan convened the first Security Consultative Committee or “2+2” in four years to outline common strategic objectives and strengthen alliance cooperation in a regional and global setting. The two governments also consulted on the margins of international events to discuss cooperation on various issues. Vice President Joseph Biden visited Japan in late August to reiterate US support for the recovery effort and met victims of the disaster in Tohoku. Public opinion polls in Japan and the United States revealed a solid foundation of support for the US-Japan alliance. iii US-China Relations:……..……………………………………………………………………..27 Friction and Cooperation Co-exist Uneasily by Bonnie Glaser, CSIS/Pacific Forum and Brittany Billingsley, CSIS In pursuit of agreements reached between Presidents Hu and Obama in January, the US and China worked to strengthen their relationship, while managing friction on a number of issues. Renewed tensions in the South China Sea put maritime security at the top of the agenda in many bilateral and multilateral interactions, including the inaugural US-China Consultations on Asia- Pacific Affairs, at the ASEAN Regional Forum meeting in Bali, and in a bilateral meeting between Secretary Clinton and State Councilor Dai Bingguo in Shenzhen. In early May, the third annual Strategic and Economic Dialogue (S&ED) convened in Washington, DC. Despite protests from Beijing, President Obama met the Dalai Lama. In May and July, PLA Chief of the General Staff Gen. Chen Bingde and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen exchanged visits. In August, Joe Biden made his first visit to China as vice president. US-Korea Relations:...………………………………………………………………………….45 A Return to Dialogue by Victor Cha, CSIS/Georgetown University and Ellen Kim, CSIS The summer months saw a potentially new cycle of US-DPRK dialogue. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s invitation to DPRK Vice-Minister Kim Kye Gwan to visit New York for two days of official talks raised the specter that the North may be ready for re-engagement. Meanwhile, South Korea named a new unification minister, which some perceive to be the harbinger of a shift in its North Korea policy. But reliable sources say that President Lee Myung- bak will not cave so easily on his principles. Elsewhere, the Korea-US free trade agreement remains in limbo as it remains caught in partisan strife within the legislatures of both countries and the US received another lesson in Korea’s preferred terminology for Asian geography. US-Southeast Asia Relations:…..……………………………………………………...............55 Deep in South China Sea Diplomacy by Sheldon Simon, Arizona State University Diplomacy related to the South China Sea disputes dominated US actions at regional meetings as it endorsed an independent ASEAN role in the South China Sea negotiations. The US also supported the Philippines’ gradual buildup of its archipelagic security capability by funding projects for the ill-equipped and underfunded Philippine armed forces. Manila, sought a specific defense commitment from the US in the event of a military conflict over South China Sea islands. The Cambodia-Thai border dispute continues as ASEAN mediation efforts have established a timetable for military disengagement. In Indonesia, radical Jemaah Islamiyah cleric Abu Bakar Bashir

  • Ambassador Kenneth M. Quinn for All the Innovations That We Do They
    THE WORLD FOOD PRIZE 2019 Borlaug Dialogue International Symposium “Pax Agricultura: Peace Through Agriculture” October 16-18, 2019 - Des Moines, Iowa TRACKING THE TREND LINES: REGIONAL PROSPECTS FOR PEACE AND CONFLICT Panel Moderator: Mr. Joseph Jones October 17, 2019 – 11:15 a.m.-12:05 p.m. Introduction Ambassador Kenneth M. Quinn President - World Food Prize Foundation For all the innovations that we do they have to be done in a stable climate. Conflict is such a critical threat to everything that is going to occur. And having peace through agriculture is an absolute essential. So is it going to be a peaceful world, or are we going to be facing continued threats and upheaval. So I've invited four of my former colleagues from the State Department, four of the most distinguished ambassadors, career ambassadors with whom I worked, for whom I have such enormous respect. Collectively, they have been representing the United States as ambassadors in 14 countries. And if we throw in John Negroponte, who’s on the program tomorrow, I think we’re up at about close to 20. So Kristie Kenney, and they’re all career ambassadors, the highest rank and several above what I attained in the State Department. And Kristie Kenney has come. She has incredible experience in Southeast Asia. George Moose, who is a graduate of Grinnell College in Iowa is amazing— He and I went to Vietnam together—but amazing experience in Africa. Nancy Powell, also an Iowan from Le Mars and Cedar Falls. See, I have the two Iowans in the middle here.
