ABSTRACT Title : India’s Look East Policy : Future Role in Asia Pacific Region
Field : Strategy
Name: Brig Gen Rajeev Sirohi,VSM Course : NDC Class : 56
The aim of the research is to critically examine the rapidly changing geo-political
situation, emergence of new regional groupings, re-defined political and security architecture in
the Asia-Pacific Region and review the current status and the drawbacks in India’s ‘Look East
Policy’ with a view to formulate India’s strategy for the future.
The hypothesis being pursued in the research is that in view of the changed contours
of the dynamic geo-political competition in the Asia Pacific Region, India’s ‘Look East Policy’
needs to be realigned, to base it on ‘interest based collaboration’ with ASEAN and countries in
North East Asia, with a view to maximise India’s strategic options, enhance economic growth,
bring stability to the region and optimally serve India’s national objectives.
The research methodology is by qualitative research method, data available from
relevant books in libraries, on the internet, from journals/periodicals, interview with Indian
Ambassador to Thailand, views of eminent think tanks, policies of the Government of India,
ASEAN and other countries in the region, personal travel within Thailand as well as visits to
Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and border regions of Myanmar.
The research is multi-dimensional to cover all facets of India’s Look East Policy
with a view to generate options for future foreign policy, economic cooperation, defence
engagement and integration into the future regional economic and security architecture in the Asia
Pacific region.
While the introduction is in Chapter 1, the background of India’s ‘Look East Policy’
and current engagement with the region are in Chapters 2 and 3. The geo-political and geoeconomic landscape of the region are covered in Chapter 4. The final Chapter highlights the
implications for India and gives out recommendations in three spheres ie geo-political, future
engagement with ASEAN and India-Myanmar relations.
The research is an attempt to provide an in-depth study of India’s ‘Look EastPolicy’
and aims to provide recommendations for the future contours of the Policy in view of the rapid
geo-political changes taking place in the region.
