Each of the authors in their respective chapters give explanations of the policy and analysis of events for the reader to better appreciate and understand Malaysia’s posture in the South China Sea historically and as a guide for the future. The responsibility for mapping the area was given to the National Survey and Mapping Department of Malaysia. They were supported by various agencies from the Ministry of Defence and the National Security Council. The Royal Malaysian Engineers and their colleagues from the National Survey and Mapping Department would not have been able to undertake their dangerous and arduous task of surveying the uncharted area. The data they collected were transformed into the 1979 Map on the Continental Shelf of Malaysia. Producing the map was indeed a national cooperative and collective effort during the reign of Tun Hussein Onn as Prime Minister. However, it was Prime Minster Dr Mahathir Mohamed who was the architect and champion of Malaysia’s policy in the Spratlys. Without his personal commitment, the entire project to acquire territories in the Spratly would not have materialised. The first chapter presents a historical perspective by describing the involvement of the Royal Malaysian Navy’s Special Forces Unit (PASKAL) in making Malaysia’s first steps in staking its claim in the South China Sea by occupying a feature and placing markers on five other nearby marine features to indicate territorial gain. The Royal Malaysian Air Force played its part in the process of the occupation of the marine feature of the Spratly Archipelago. This chapter recalls the first tenacious moments when a team of Malaysian naval personnel put their feet on a rocky coral outcrop (a reef) in the southern sector of the South China Sea within Malaysia’s natural continental shelf. 1 Malaysia And South China Sea: Policy, Strategy and Risks The narrative offers a factual and serious, yet at times humorous and light-hearted

  • Southeast Asia Was Impacted Greatly by the Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) in 2020
    NIDS East Asian Strategic Review 2021 Summary Southeast Asia was impacted greatly by the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in 2020. In Indonesia and the Philippines, infections continued to spread or level off even into the start of 2021. While some countries in the region largely contained new infections, others experienced a resurgence of cases from the second half of 2020. In the region as a whole, there is no sign of the pandemic ending. Measures taken in response to COVID-19, such as border closures, city-wide lockdowns, and other restrictions, had serious repercussions on domestic economies with the poor particularly hit hard. At the same time, some governments resorted to authoritarian approaches under the pretext of the response to COVID-19, raising concerns about the impact on democratic practices that have been implemented in the countries. Although the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) played a role as a platform for international support to deal with COVID-19, its role as an independent actor to deal with problems was limited. Notwithstanding the pandemic, the situation in the South China Sea remained tense as China’s activities to claim its rights unfolded with a greater show of force. Southeast Asian countries responded militarily and diplomatically to the extent possible, taking into account the disparity in their forces with China’s and the impact on economic relations. Western countries, on the other hand, became increasingly wary of China’s actions, and the United States in particular embraced a more active engagement on this issue. As differences in opinion between the United States and China become prominent in the ASEAN diplomatic arena, the organization appears to be distancing itself from this great power competition.

To the international community Southeast Asian waterways such as the Straits of Malacca and Singapore and the South China Sea are vital sea lines of communication for trade and navigation. The task of securing the region’s maritime realm rests with the navies of Southeast Asia. The size and order of battle of these navies reflect the maritime security requirements of the different countries and it is not possible to group the navies under a single category. Southeast Asian navies typically provide traditional maritime security services and also perform limited constabulary role particularly in resource protection. Increasingly however, Southeast Asian navies as with other navies of the world are being looked upon as guarantees against non-traditional maritime security threats such as crime at sea and terrorism.

First published in the year 2000, the ARF Annual Security Outlook serves as an essential instrument for the promotion of confidence building through greater transparency. The voluntary sharing of information and perspectives on political and security issues compounding the region, continues to strengthen mutual understanding among its members. This is the essence of the ARF framework that we have been advocating since its inception in 1994. The ARF has certainly made a big contribution towards the sustained period of peace and stability, which led to greater level of prosperity in the region. The year 2015 is a historic and a significant year for ASEAN as it is the year the ASEAN Community is to be realised. As Chairman of ASEAN and concurrently the Chairman of the ARF, we intend to work towards the promotion of regional peace and security through moderation as a shared value in addressing conflict and finding solutions to issues concerning regional peace and security.
