    Lecture Abstract:

    The paper will identify key issues and questions for a study being undertaken by the Maritime Security Programme at RSIS of the future maritime security environment in Asia. Possible maritime developments in the region over the next decade will be considered, including the evolving strategic environment, shifts in the maritime balance of power and the likelihood and impact of particular threats and challenges in the maritime domain. Asia is increasingly a globalised maritime environment and particular attention will be given to trends in shipping and seaborne trade, including in energy and resource materials, so as to have a better sense of the importance of sea lines of communication (SLOCs), the South China Sea, and the Straits of Malacca and Singapore. Issues to be considered include the consequences of the maritime sovereignty disputes in the region; developments in regional naval forces; increased exploitation of marine resources, both living and non-living; projected developments with key maritime legal regimes; and trends in illegal activity at sea, including piracy, smuggling in drugs, arms and people; and illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. As the study by the Maritime Security Programme is work-in-progress, the seminar’s discussion period should provide useful input for the further development of the study.
