Abstract:
In the first quarter of 2020, ASEAN became China's largest trading partner despite the tense political climate of clashes in the South China Sea and the US-China Trade War. This is an indicator of the deepening economic ties and regional integration of the two bodies; however. to sustain this mutually beneficial relationship ASEAN needs a comprehensive plan to negotiate its role in the Belt and Road initiatives, implement transparent economic policies and further South China Sea negotiations. This report gives an overview of the Belt and Road initiative, economic relations and the South China Sea issue in relation to ASEAN- China relations and recommends strategy ASEAN should pursue in regards to them.
