An East Asian community of nations - akin to the economically powerful European Union - was floated by Japan's new Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama in his visit to China, but the idea was dismissed by Chinese political experts who said it cannot be realized in the near future and poses too many difficulties.
Today, Campbell,America's assistant secretary of state claimed that no leadership mechanism has been established in Asia, but the important mechanism on security, economy, business should include America.
If East Asia Union could be established, do you really think America should be included in East Asia Union?
Besides, there are two proposals -- 13 countries & 16 countries
13G--ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) , China, Japan, South Korea;
16G--ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) , China, Japan, South Korea, Austrilia, New Zealand, India;
China inclined to the proposal of "13G", while Japan tended to "16G".
OK, Let's vote. In your Opinion, which countries should be included in East Asia Union?
