This thesis utilizes geopolitical, geo-economic, constructivism, and complex interdependence approaches to analyze China’s Maritime Silk Road (MSRI) geostrategic implications in the Southeast Asia region. Besides, the framework of this thesis is to systematically analyze the South China Sea claimants’ and non-claimants’ perceptions, responses, and expectations to China’s MSRI program, which is an important research foundation to probe into the Maritime Silk Road connections and effects on South China Sea tension. This thesis analyzes Southeast Asia countries’ official documents, think tank reports, and local newspapers from 2013 to 2019 and groups ASEAN countries’ perceptions of MSRI into three categories of opportunities, challenges, and threats. Lao and Cambodia consider MSRI as an opportunity to reinforce the domestic economy and improve regional connectivity. Vietnam and Myanmar consider that the MSRI threatens their national security and sovereignty. The other ASEAN countries, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia view the MSRI half for opportunity and half for threat. Besides, this thesis categorizes ASEAN countries’ responses to China’s MSRI program into four types that opposed to approval, conservative and prudent, openness but discreet, and friendly and embracing responses. Furthermore, this author examines the United States, Japan, and India’s responses and interventions of China’s MSRI strategy in the Southeast Asia region.參考文獻 Government DocumentsA speech delivered at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China by Xi Jin-ping, October 18, 2017, “Secure a Decisive Victory in Building a Moderately Prosperous Society in All Respects and Strive for the Great Success of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era,” 2017, http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/download/Xi_Jinping`s_report_at_19th_CPC_National_Congress.pdfAIIB official website, “AIIB Approves First Project in Lao PDR,” 2020, https://www.aiib.org/en/news- events/news/2019/20190404_001.htmlAustralia Government Department of Defense, “Joint Statement on the Sixth Indonesia-Australia Foreign and Defense Ministers 2+2 Meeting,” 2019, https://www.minister.defence.gov.au/minister/lreynolds/statements/joint-statement-sixth-indonesia-australia-foreign-and-defenceASEAN official website, “Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia,” 1976, https://asean.org/asean/about-asean/overview/ASEAN official Website, “ASEAN Political-Security Community Blueprint 2025,” 2016, https://asean.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ASEAN-APSC-Blueprint-2025.pdfBelt and Road Initiative official website “The Belt and Road Initiative Progress, Contributions and Prospects,”2019, https://eng.yidaiyilu.gov.cn/zchj/qwfb/86739.htmBelt and Road Initiative official website, “Belt and Road Initiative,” 2018, https://www.beltroad-initiative.com/belt-and-road/Belt and Road Initiative official website, “China promises 9 billion US Dollars to Support Philippines Build Build Build program,” 2017, https://www.yidaiyilu.gov.cn/xwzx/hwxw/30860.htmBrunei Department of Economic Planning and Development, “Gross Domestic Product 2019 First Quarter,” 2019, http://www.deps.gov.bn/DEPD%20Documents%20Library/DOS/GDP/2019/GDP_Q12019.pdfBrunei Ministry of Finance and Economy, “His Majesty Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah Mu`izzaddin Waddaulah Ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar Ali Saifuddien Sa`adul Khairi Waddien,” 2020, https://www.mofe.gov.bn/SitePages/Minister-of-Finance.aspxCambodia Council of Ministers Office, “Prime Minister Hun Sen Shares Cambodia’s Experience with Participants of WEF on ASEAN 2017,” 2017, https://pressocm.gov.kh/en/archives/5228Cambodia SSEZ official website, “Cambodia Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone,” 2020, http://www.ssez.com/en/company.asp?Ione=3China Chongging Liangjing official website, “China Singapore Agree to Enhance BRI Trade Cooperation,” 2019, http://english.liangjiang.gov.cn/2019-10/16/content_37516053.htmDepartment of Finance of Philippines, “Build, Build, Build to Roll out 75 Projects worth $35.5 Billion,” 2018, https://www.dof.gov.ph/index.php/build-build-build-to-roll-out-75-projects-worth-35-5-b/DOC Official Document, “2002 Declaration on Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea,” 2002, https://cil.nus.edu.sg/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/2002-Declaration-on-the-Conduct-of-Parties-in-the-South-China-Sea.pdfEmbassy of Brunei Darussalam, “Brunei Vision 2035,” http://www.bruneiembassy.org/brunei-vision-2035.htmlEmbassy of Brunei Darussalam, “Introducing Brunei,” 2018, http://www.mfa.gov.bn/bahrain- manama/SitePages/bruneiintroduction.aspxEmbassy of China in Thailand, “H.E.

Besides, the framework of this thesis is to systematically analyze the South China Sea claimants’ and non-claimants’ perceptions, responses, and expectations to China’s MSRI program, which is an important research foundation to probe into the Maritime Silk Road connections and effects on South China Sea tension. This thesis analyzes Southeast Asia countries’ official documents, think tank reports, and local newspapers from 2013 to 2019 and groups ASEAN countries’ perceptions of MSRI into three categories of opportunities, challenges, and threats. Lao and Cambodia consider MSRI as an opportunity to reinforce the domestic economy and improve regional connectivity. Vietnam and Myanmar consider that the MSRI threatens their national security and sovereignty. The other ASEAN countries, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia view the MSRI half for opportunity and half for threat. Besides, this thesis categorizes ASEAN countries’ responses to China’s MSRI program into four types that opposed to approval, conservative and prudent, openness but discreet, and friendly and embracing responses. Furthermore, this author examines the United States, Japan, and India’s responses and interventions of China’s MSRI strategy in the Southeast Asia region. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents Chapter 1 Introduction 11.1 Research Purpose and Motivation 11.2 Research Approach 21.3 Research Method 61.4 Literature Review 81.5 Research Scope 221.6 Research Limitations 221.7 Research Questions 23Chapter 2 China’s Belt and Road Initiative and Strategy 252.1 China “Belt and Road” Initiative 252.2 Purposes of the Maritime Silk Road toward ASEAN 272.3 The Strategic Means to Fulfill the Maritime Silk Road in ASEAN 312.4 The Integral ASEAN Countries’ Views and Responses to the MSRI Program 362.5 Chapter Summary 39Chapter 3 ASEAN Response: Countries Having Territorial Disputes with China 413.1 Vietnams’ Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 413.2 Philippines’ Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 473.3 Indonesia’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 543.4 Malaysia’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 613.5 Brunei’s Perceptions, Responses, and Expectations of MSRI 663.6 Chapter Summary 73Chapter 4 ASEAN Response: Countries Don’t Have Territorial Disputes with China 774.1 Cambodia’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 774.2 Laos’ Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 814.3 Thailand’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 854.4 Myanmar’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 914.5 Singapore’s Perceptions, Responses and Expectations of MSRI 994.6 Chapter Summary 104Chapter 5 Responses and Interventions of Big Powers 1075.1 The United States’ Responses and Interventions of China’s MSRI 1075.2 Japan’s Responses and Interventions of China’s MSRI 1165.3 India’s Responses and Interventions of China’s MSRI 1245.4 Chapter Summary 135Chapter 6 Conclusion 1396.1 Research Findings 1396.2 Suggestions for Further Research 150Bibliography 155 zh_TW dc.format.extent 2261791 bytes -
