■ expert interpretation
Summit five Aspect
Chinese Academy of Social Sciences of Southeast Asia, Indonesia scholar Xu Liping, said this year’s ASEAN Summit has five concerns.
1 ASEAN expansion
a hot spot will be the first expansion of ASEAN, which is accepted as a member of East Timor. Brazil also signed the “Treaty of Amity,” in preparation for joining the East Asia Summit. ASEAN may be extended to 12 countries.

its sixth year, the East Asian Summit, the Summit had previously been the main focus on five topics related to economic, technological, food safety, to prevent avian flu. U.S. to join, I hope that more discussion of political issues and security issues, hoping to Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member countries into the TPP (“Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement”), economic organizations, to counter China and ASEAN. Xu Liping said, “after the East Asia Summit is likely to move in this direction, the rotating presidency of the summit in Indonesia expressed the hope that the East Asia Summit eliminate interference, continued toward the established direction.”

debt crisis in Europe in the context of world economic recovery is weak, the East Asia Summit to maintain rapid growth in Asian economies in the context of strengthening global cooperation.
4 East Asian integration
Aspect Four is how to deepen the integration process in East Asia. China stands for “10 +3″, that is practically the “ASEAN + Japan and South Korea” mechanism. Japan hopes that on this basis, to join Australia, New Zealand and India. In the present case, in order to avoid being TPP effect, China may agree to “10 +6″ program.
5 ASEAN new position
