The establishment of ASEAN poses a considerable threat to the republic, and all eight ASEAN countries are countries with territorial waters or territorial disputes with the republic. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIt is clear that this time ASEAN was created to fight against the republics. This is a huge threat to the influence of the Republic in the Asia-Pacific region, but the Republic has no good way to do it, and can only watch the actions of the eight ASEAN countries. Now that eight Southeast Asian countries have established ASEAN, it is foreseeable that other countries in Southeast Asia will certainly join this ASEAN in a few years. At that time, if all the countries of Southeast Asia join this ASEAN, it will be an even more serious threat to the Republic of China. If nothing else, if Singapore, a Southeast Asian country, joins ASEAN and the rest of ASEAN to advance and retreat together, it will be a huge threat to the Republic in terms of maritime transportation.

The Republic's ties with African countries are largely through the maritime aspect, and if Singapore joins ASEAN, the Strait of Malacca, the most important passage from East Asia to Africa, will be completely under the control of ASEAN countries. If the Republic wants to go to Africa, it must pass through the Strait of Malacca, and if the Republic bypasses the Strait of Malacca, it will not only increase the voyage, but also increase the cost of transportation. The most important thing is that it will greatly extend the time for the Republic to reach Africa. A lot of times, time is of the essence. Maybe some African country will have to establish some kind of cooperation with the Republic today, but because of the delay in time, they are likely to change their minds. This will have a great impact on the strategic layout of the republic in Africa, and these things have to worry the top level of the republic. At this time, the top level of the Republic was also discussing how to deal with the establishment of ASEAN by several Southeast Asian countries.

Beijing, the capital of the republic, the Zhongnanhai conference room, the seven leaders of the republic.

"The establishment of ASEAN this time is obviously to confront our republic. In recent years, in order to achieve a rapid rise of our republic, we have chosen to retreat in many aspects. After years of development, the influence of our Republic in the international community has been increasing day by day, especially on the domestic economy of those countries in Southeast Asia. Now the establishment of ASEAN is obviously a sign to our country that they are seeking to get rid of the influence of our Republic on their domestic country! Now everyone is talking about how we should deal with ASEAN!"

Over the years, the Republic's Swift Staff has continued to increase its influence in the country, especially in the Asian region. With the economic development of the Republic, the influence of the Republic in Asia has been expanding in recent years, and even the proportion of Chinese businessmen in several southeastern countries is very large. The current republic can be said to be able to affect the economy of any country in Southeast Asia, which is obviously not a good sign for the countries of Southeast Asia. This is also the fundamental reason why Southeast Asian countries have been moving closer to the U.S. government in recent years.

The United States is in the Americas, too far away from Southeast Asia, and even if the US government wants to completely influence Southeast Asian countries, they will have no will, unless they are like Japan. The U.S. government has always been in the midst of conspirators capable of subverting the regime of the republic. Since the end of the Cold War, the United States has increased its emphasis on the Republic. In recent years, the Republic has been developing rapidly, both economically and militarily, which has made no government feel that the Republic is a serious threat to its U.S. government. Therefore, the U.S. government has continuously increased its assistance to Japan, South Korea, and several Southeast Asian countries, with the aim of curbing the development of the republic.

In recent years, the US government has been increasing its assistance to several countries in Southeast Asia, and several countries in Southeast Asia can understand its purpose. As the Republic's influence in their country increases, they certainly want to get rid of the Republic's strong influence in their country. The two sides hit it off, and now several countries in Southeast Asia believe that they have nothing to fear the Republic with the assistance of the U.S. government. This is also the reason why, in recent years, several countries in Southeast Asia that have territorial and territorial disputes with the Duchy have been constantly provoking the republic. In order to achieve a rapid rise, the Republic has completely ignored the provocations of several Southeast Asian countries, although many of them are protests and condemnations, which has further boosted their arrogance, which is also an important reason why several Southeast Asian countries have been able to establish ASEAN. Up to now, the US Government has continued to increase its assistance to several Southeast Asian countries, and the establishment of ASEAN by several Southeast Asian countries this time has not been without the US Government pushing waves behind it.

"I wonder if we are stepping up our efforts, because the establishment of ASEAN this time has seriously affected the influence of our Republic in Asia, especially in Southeast Asia. In recent times, although we have implemented proper press control. But there is still a lot of noise on the Internet, and now ordinary people in China generally think that the government of our republic is incompetent. Now that the Internet is developed, we have implemented appropriate news control in China, but we cannot control some news on the Internet at all. Although our domestic news media and online media have not reported the news about the South China Sea, several Southeast Asian countries have continued to report on their achievements in the South China Sea. Now there is already a lot of complaints on the domestic Internet, thinking that the government of our republic has completely lost its blood, that we are now a soft egg, empty of strong comprehensive national strength, but there is no tough attitude. So I think we should now step up patrols in the South China Sea, and if we can, even expel several Southeast Asian countries, especially Vietnam, from operating in the South China Sea. ”

The third leader spoke as soon as the first leader finished speaking. Reading between the lines, it means a completely hard-line response to the behavior of several Southeast Asian countries in the South China Sea. It's not that these chiefs don't care about some problems on the Internet, it's just that sometimes they can't do anything about it. After all, they are all in high positions, and they look at problems in a completely different direction than ordinary people. Several leaders have to take into account all aspects when facing some problems, and cannot act solely on personal preferences. Sometimes they are angry at the actions of certain countries, but they have to look at the problem holistically, so that they can better lead the whole country forward.

Now many people on the Internet are clamoring for this war, but war cannot completely solve the problem. At present, the mainstream of the international community is peace, and once a war breaks out between the republic and certain countries, it will not only affect the image of the republic in the international community, but more importantly, war will kill people. War is often equated with death, and whether a war is lost or won, it is a great trauma for a country. Take the Afghan war some time ago, for example, although the republic won, the republic is not without any costs. The death toll alone reached nearly two thousand, not to mention the injured. Of course, the casualties of the Afghan government forces are greater, which also brings significant benefits to the republic. But the casualties are painful for families. So sometimes the top of the republic has to make some compromises.

"If we step up our operations in the South China Sea, will it cause unnecessary friction?" asked the second chief, a little worried. Although more than a month has passed since the bombing, it is clear that several countries in Southeast Asia will not rest on their laurels. At this time, if there is any friction with several countries in Southeast Asia, it is likely to cause war. In the event of a war, the impact on the economy of the republic will be too great.

The No. 2 chief is in charge of the economy, and now that the republic has managed to get the economy up, in the event of a major war, the economy of the republic is likely to decline for several years. So the second chief is a little worried. The economy is everything to the country, and if the economy declines badly, there will be a lot of problems. Although military power is the foundation for protecting the country, there are many things that cannot be done without the economy. Therefore, the first concern of the second chief is the economic problem.

"It's been more than a month since the bombing, and we don't need to be afraid of them at all. Although they have the U.S. government behind them, I think if we had taken a tougher stance, then the U.S. government would not have intervened at all. It's not really going to be a war. The words of the No. 3 leader were loud, and he looked like he was not afraid of big things.

"However, let's take a look at the next moves of several countries in Southeast Asia. Although they are now forming ASEAN to deal with our republic, they are not doing anything excessive now. So, I think we should keep a close eye on their movements during this time, and if they really go too far, then it's not too late for us to take a tough stance!" said the Fifth Leader.

"Well, we should look at the next moves of ASEAN countries, so that we can decide our next policy towards ASEAN countries. However, it is suggested that now we should come into contact with the ban on fishing, which has made many fishermen unhappy. The main source of these fishermen is fishing, and if we really continue to ban fishing for a long time, the impact on these fishermen will be too great. And if we lift the ban, then we can also see the reaction of ASEAN countries. Chief Seven thought for a moment and said.

"I also think we should lift the ban on fishing now, after all, it's been more than a month since the explosion. I don't think ASEAN countries will do anything unfavorable to our fishermen. Chief Six said.
