This book, originating from the proceedings of the Delhi Dialogue V, seeks to highlight India's increasing engagement with ASEAN countries and explores the agenda for consolidation of their relationship in the coming years. It draws from the knowledge and insights from political and economic leaders, officials, academics and opinion-makers of India and ASEAN countries to find out ways to intensify and broaden political, strategic, economic and civil society interaction between the two regions. In the wake of Delhi Dialogue being mentioned in the Vision Statement issued at India-ASEAN Commemorative Summit in December 2012, this book holds particular importance. It also assesses and incorporates issues and perspectives which emerged from this Summit to help identify areas of greater engagement between India and ASEAN countries. It is hoped that this volume will make a significant contribution towards the ever expanding scholarship on India-ASEAN relationship.
