|
East
Asia Summit
Criterion
for Participation
The
ASEAN Foreign Ministers have facilitated the entry of India along
with Australia and New Zealand through setting up a three-point
criterion for countries outside the region joining the summit, The
Asian Wall Street Journal reported on April 13, 2005.
According
to the three-point criterion, for attending the summit, the non-ASEAN
countries must have substantive relations with ASEAN, have full
dialogue partnership with ASEAN and be signatories to ASEAN’s
Treaty of Amity and Cooperation.
Since
India qualifies at all the three criterions, it will definitely
be included in the first Summit, while the other two contending
countries Australia and New Zealand will have to sign the TAC for
their inclusion.
India’s
inclusion was strongly championed by Singapore. The Economic
Times (April 13, 2005) reported that there were some objections
to India’s inclusion, notably by Malaysia. “ But India’s
friends were led by Singapore which played the lead role in bringing
the other ASEAN members around”, the paper highlighted.
The
decision was made at the ASEAN Foreign Ministers Retreat in Cebu
Philippines. The formal announcement though will be made at the
ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meeting in July to be held in Laos, Cambodia.
