Abstract:
|
While both the Philippines and Thailand are treaty allies of the US in Southeast Asia, they exhibit different
levels of support to the US renewed focus on the Asia-Pacific. The vibrancy of Washington’s ties with Manila
and Bangkok is influenced by perception of a common security threat as well as domestic political and
economic concerns. |
