China's "charm offensive" in Southeast Asia has begun to show up the US and US foreign policy in Southeast Asia is seen as being increasingly out of sync and behind times.

An eclectic approach will be used, instead of a single theoretical framework, so as to be able to adequately analyze and understand the complexity of the situation in Southeast Asia. |
