THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CHINA’S DEFENSE POLICY IN SINO-MYANMAR DEFENSE COOPERATION TO INCREASE ITS INFLUENCE IN THE INDIAN OCEAN IN THE CASE OF BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE (2013-2017) By Cici Ernasari ID no. 016201400032 A thesis presented to the Faculty of Humanities President University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Bachelor Degree in International Relations Major in Strategic and Defense Studies 2018 i ii iii iv ABSTRACT Cici Ernasari, International Relations 2014, President University Thesis Title: “The Implementation of China’s Defense Policy in Sino-Myanmar Defense Cooperation to Increase Its Influence in the Indian Ocean in the case of Belt and Road Initiative (2013 – 2017)” The rise of China has been a great phenomenon in the world particularly in this 21st century. This rise has led China becomes the world’s second largest economy and also the world’s largest military. This situation however pushed China to fulfill the increasing demand of energy and to seek for the alternative route. By sharing 2,204 kilometers of its border with China and has direct access to the Indian Ocean, Myanmar becomes a land bridge to get the access to Indian Ocean. Myanmar locates on tri-junction Southeast, South and East Asia and very abundance with natural resources. In the name of Pauk-Phaw, China and Myanmar relations has been existing since the ancient times and both countries have maintained substantive relations. In the context of belt and road initiative, China has implemented its defense policy through the economic and military cooperation with Myanmar. This research therefore explains the implementation of China’s defense policy in Sino-Myanmar defense cooperation to strengthening its position in the Indian Ocean in the context of belt and road initiative from 2013 until 2017. -
Section 3: China's Strategic Aims in Africa
SECTION 3: CHINA’S STRATEGIC AIMS IN AFRICA Key Findings • Beijing has long viewed African countries as occupying a cen- tral position in its efforts to increase China’s global influence and revise the international order. Over the last two decades, and especially under General Secretary of the Chinese Com- munist Party (CCP) Xi Jinping’s leadership since 2012, Beijing has launched new initiatives to transform Africa into a testing ground for the export of its governance system of state-led eco- nomic growth under one-party, authoritarian rule. • Beijing uses its influence in Africa to gain preferential access to Africa’s natural resources, open up markets for Chinese exports, and enlist African support for Chinese diplomatic priorities on and beyond the continent. The CCP flexibly tailors its approach to different African countries with the goal of instilling admira- tion and at times emulation of China’s alternative political and governance regime. • China is dependent on Africa for imports of fossil fuels and commodities constituting critical inputs in emerging technology products. Beijing has increased its control of African commodi- ties through strategic direct investment in oil fields, mines, and production facilities, as well as through resource-backed loans that call for in-kind payments of commodities. This control threatens the ability of U.S. companies to access key supplies. • As the top bilateral financier of infrastructure projects across Africa, China plays an important role in addressing the short- age of infrastructure on the continent. China’s financing is opaque and often comes with onerous terms, however, leading to rising concerns of economic exploitation, dependency, and po- litical coercion. -

The Kwanyin Clan
e-ISSN 2385-3042 ISSN 1125-3789 Annali di Ca’ Foscari. Serie orientale Vol. 55 – Giugno 2019 The Kwanyin Clan: Modern Literati Graffiti Writers An Aesthetic and Text Analysis of their Main Artworks Adriana Iezzi Alma Mater Studiorum, Università di Bologna, Italia Abstract After illustrating the varied artistic production of the Kwanyin Clan, one of the most important Chinese graffiti crews, this paper analyses six of their main artworks in detail (styles, techniques, aesthetic conceptions and artworks texts). In these artworks, the Kwanyin Clan tried for the first time to merge Euro-American graffiti practice with the ancient traditional arts practiced and appreciated by the Chinese literati (calligraphy, poetry, painting, seals and ceramics). Comparing the Kwanyin Clan members to ‘modern literati writers’, the present article shows how this crew succeeded in reinventing ancient Chinese art forms using Euro-American graffiti vocabulary, paving the way for a new development of graffiti art in China. Keywords Kwanyin Clan. Graffiti. Contemporary Chinese art. Chinese literati. ‘Three perfections’. Summary 1 Introduction: the Kwanyin Clan in Beijing. – 2 ‘Modern Literati Graffiti Paintings’ by the Kwanyin Clan: Shanshui PIC (2007) and New Style (2008). – 3 ‘Modern Literati Calligraphy Graffiti’ by the Kwanyin Clan: Shirupozhu (2008) and Shengongyiji- ang (2010). – 4 ‘Modern Literati Graffiti Ceramics’ by the Kwanyin Clan:Blue and White Porcelain (2009-2010) and the Artwork Made for the Exhibition ‘Street Art, a Global View’ (2016). – 5 Conclusion: the Kwanyin Clan as ‘Modern Literati Graffiti Writers’.

The Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference Report 2009 is co-produced by the Boao Forum for Asia and the Deloitte China Research and Insight Center on behalf of Deloitte as the Intellectual Supporting Partner to the BFA's Annual Conference. The report is intended to provide an overview of the topics discussed but it is not a complete documentation of the conference itself. References to speakers and panelists have been drawn from the Boao Forum for Asia's recordings of the sessions. The Boao Forum for Asia wishes to thank all the speakers and panelists at the Annual Conference 2009 for their participation and willingness to share their views, ideas and experience. Following the turmoil of the global financial crisis and in the midst of the global economic downturn, the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2009 on 17-19 April, provided a valuable and timely opportunity for leaders of government, business and academia to meet and exchange views and ideas on the way ahead for the global economy, and the role of Asian economies. We would like to share with you this special report which we invited Deloitte, as our Intellectual Supporting Partner to the Boao Forum for Asia's Annual Conference, to co-produce with us. It encapsulates the key topics and ideas discussed last April as more than 1,400 delegates from approximately 40 countries around the world focused on "Asia: Managing beyond crisis", our Annual Conference 2009 theme. The consensus of delegates attending the Annual Conference 2009 was that a new global financial order is inevitable. -
