Journal Title: International Journal of Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Studies (IJIMS) - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
In today’s world,ASEANhas matured into a leading economic block with strong trade and political relations with almost all nations and regional organizations.India’s economic liberalization and ‘Look East Policy’ introduced in the year of 1991, heraldeda new beginning in India-ASEAN relations.Besides, India has also given its effort to maintain mutual bilateral relations with the ASAEN countries in particular from time to time.In fact, at the broader regional level, India has continued to make a strong case for its growing relevance in the Southeast Asian regional security and economic architecture.Both India and ASEAN hold mutual diplomatic approach to each other with regard to the fulfillment of their respective national interests.India’s “Look East Policy” is now at the stage of “Act East Policy”.At this time, India is in a position where it has to act, take part in the affairs of Southeast Asia region and cooperate with the ASEAN states more actively and effectively in all aspects with the goal of emerging as a major global power in the present world.Therefore, India should pursue and conduct its foreign policy more diplomatically in relation with ASEAN, to serve its own national interest and also at the same time to establish its influence in the Southeast Asia region,and in future India’s diplomatic triumph in establishing foreign relations with the major global powers will depend to a large extent on preparing, widening and strengthening various fields of common interest with the nation-states of Southeast Asia and other regions.
