Abstract

The process of regionalization is seen in most parts of the world. There are many Asian regional cooperation mechanisms in the region, such as ASEAN, Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS), Ayeyawadi-Chaopraya-Mekong Economic Cooperation Scheme (ACMECS) and other regional development corridors. The East Asian regionalism is an emerging topic for discussion. The author tries to focus analysis on how to reconcile ASEAN with East Asian Community: whether ASEAN+6 or ASEAN+3 and +3. Is it possible to include more countries in the so-called “East Asian Community”? The paper presents a future scenario for East Asian Regionalism. While the East Asian Community is still a long way to go with many speculations and expectations, East Asian Summit should continue to be a political forum for leaders to frame strategic policies and visions.
