EAS

　ASEAN belongs to a number of organizations.I think this time I would like to introduce in the EAS.
　EAS is the abbreviation for the Easｔ Asia Summit.EAS is engaged in an open dialogue between the leaders on key issues of regional and international community. For ｒegional common issues, launched in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in December 2005 in order to advance concrete cooperation at the initiative of the heads.EAS is engaged in an open dialogue between the leaders on key issues of regional and international community.In the first EAS, setting priority areas of cooperation in energy, financial services, education, avian influenza, infectious disease control, and disaster prevention. Connectivity has been added to the priority areas of opportunity to the adoption of the "Declaration on the connectivity EAS summit ASEAN" in the Sixth EAS in 2011. Since 2011, the United States and Russia are participating formally, we have confirmed to strengthen efforts in the field of politics and security.
　December 10, 1990, Prime Minister Mahathir of Malaysia proposed the East Asia Economic Group for nation geographically close to each other to build closer economic zone further from the countries participating in APEC.However Japan and other countries, "said regional economic integration is meaningless without the United States".However, the criticism of disrespect Asia against Japan was not a member of quite in consideration of the Japan-US alliance as compared to China, which joined the early Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia from Southeast Asian countries that has maintained a close relationship until now came out. Also, I will consider positively from rivalry to China are trying to strengthen its influence in Southeast Asia.In addition, the Japanese idea that the United States should be added to the East Asia Summit. Had a summit meeting (then) during his visit to Japan and Korea, and Mongolia during U.S. President George W. Bush. This is to restrain the movement of the East Asia Summit and the establishment of an East Asian community "without the United States." China has taken the idea that Russia should be added, are actually the way to participate guest.This conference are mainly economic issues. However, it is likely to place the struggle for supremacy in Asia, such as Japan, China and Southeast Asia.Reasons influential and decreases with the inclusion of countries like India and Australia in the East Asian Community, Japan that want to on the basis of a community participating countries East Asia Summit basically and China that want to limit the ASEAN +3 will clash behind the scenes .
　In particular, this time I will write about the contents of the EAS for the first time and the second time.
