Southeast Asian countries want to form a bloc similar to the United States.

In fact the group wants to include the U.S. in the bloc.

The initiative has come from Japan which is urging leaders of Southeast Asian nations to establish an east asian community which would include the United States as a member.

During a second day of summit meetings of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations in Thailand, the Japanese prime minister, Yukio Hatoyama (pictured), talked of Southeast Asian countries building a strong economic community that could act as a world leader.

He said Japan wanted the U.S. to play a strong role in the region, perhaps as a member of a new body.

A spokesman for Japan's government Kazuo Kodama said the prime minister told the Association of Southeast Asian Nations that the Japan-U.S. alliance was the fundamental cornerstone of Japan's diplomatic policy.

"At the same time, he said, he now upholds a long-term vision of establishing an East Asia Community in accordance with the open regionalism," Kazuo Kodama said. "He very much intends to promote intra-regional cooperation in east Asia."

its good for u.s. and them

Yes, the Japanese, Thais, Tawanese, South Koreans all want us there - we are partly why they exist (we help keep the communist chinese at bay currently and historically). We are also their prime markets for many of their industrial goods. And we help support Indonesia’s freedom from fundamental islam.

Global Federral Integrration

Global Federral Integrration

This is a good thought. The world should integrate in to a democratic federation for peace, progress, prosperity of human being based on equality of opportunity and status. Man should be liberated from geopolitical boundaries for peaceful and harmonious integration or variety of cultures and civilizations so that future generation may divert its resources with full concentration on peaceful, equal and harmonious development across the globe. A system should be devised to iron our and resolve all the conflicts and disputes peacefully by consensus based on justice, fair play, reasons and mutual understandings. So that united mankind may explore the universe for common benefits and transform this world into heaven for all.

chinese democracy

STOP FIGHTING AND GROOVE TO THIS BEAT....

It don’t really matter
Gonna find out for yourself
No, it don’t really matter
You’re gonna leave this thing to somebody else

If they were missionaries
Real time visionaries
Sitting in a Chinese stew
To view my disinfatuation

I know that I’m a classic case
Watch my disenchanted face
Blame it on a Falun Gong
They seen the end and it can’t hold on, now

Cause it would take a lot more hate than you
To end the fascination
Even with an iron fist
All that you got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time

It don’t really matter
Yes I keep it to myself
Said it don’t really matter
Each time I look around for somebody else

'Cause it would take a lot more time than you
Have got for masturbation
Even with your iron fist
All that you got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time
All that you got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time

It don’t really matter
I guess you’ll find out for yourself
No, it don’t really matter
So you can hear it now from somebody else

You think you got it all locked up inside
And if you beat them all up they’ll die
It’s like a walk in the park from a cell
And now you’re keeping your own kind in hell
When your brain won’t rot like yourself
Like if your ass were your head you can tell
And you’re out of time

oh wait, i just realized that this song is banned in china....oh well, you noodle suckers can’t enjoy this tune then.

ASEAN + China

An outsider like Japan wants to push ASEAN into a new activity. Get a life.

ASEAN and China are already going for free trade by next year. Take a look at www.caexpo.org. The 11 countries have been working on this for 6 years now.

Japan, a small country of 100+ million population, has no weight.

ASEAN has 500 million. China has 1.3 billon.
