depends on bold recalibration

Rubio’s trip is the best window since the Trump-Biden transition for ASEAN to reclaim balance, trust, and agency in U.S. relations. To delay this pivot is to risk falling deeper into asymmetric dependency on China economically, strategically, and politically. ASEAN’s future depends on bold recalibration and that starts now, in Kuala Lumpur. This new rebalancing is vital for the long term survival for the region, and also sending a clear message to China that it is not the inevitable regional and neighbouring hegemonic power that the region has been fixated on for decades now. ดูหนัง2025
