Title: | The political economy of a rising China in Southeast Asia : Malaysia’s response to the belt and road initiative | Authors: | Liu, Hong Lim, Guanie |
Keywords: | Social sciences::Political science | Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | Liu, H., & Lim, G. (2018). The political economy of a rising China in Southeast Asia : Malaysia’s response to the belt and road initiative. Journal of Contemporary China, 28(116), 216-231. doi:10.1080/10670564.2018.1511393 | Project: | MOE2016-T2-02-87 | Journal: | Journal of Contemporary China | Series/Report no.: | Journal of Contemporary China | Abstract: | Disputing research that depicts weak states getting overwhelmed by China’s financial might, this article argues that the political elites in a relatively weak and small state such as Malaysia are adept in engaging with a rising China to advance key projects, furthering their own agenda. In the case of Malaysia, the eventual outcome of this interaction is dependent on three key conditions: fulfilment of Malaysia’s longstanding pro-ethnic Malay policy, a mutual vision between the state and federal authorities, and advancement of geopolitical interests for both Malaysia and China. The article puts forward a typology illustrating various possible outcomes to examine the interconnections between key players at a time of Chinese ascendancy. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/82314 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/46634 |
