Foreword by

Asia’s New Battlefield is a timely book on the
brewing rivalry between two powerful nations—
USA and China—for hegemony on the Western
Pacific territories, middle-power nations such as
Japan and South Korea joining in the claim for
the territories, how smaller nations in Southeast
Asia like the Philippines and Vietnam resist
China’s advances, the discussions on settling
territorial disputes, and the implications of this
tug-of-war among nations on Asia’s future.
