dc.description.abstractMålet ved denne oppgaven har vært å se hvilken påvirkning Kinas økonomiske og politikse ekspansjon har på den strategiske situasjonen i Sørøstasia. Kinas ledere må balansere det voksende behovet for energi med evnen til å garantere for sikkerheten under frakt av olje og gass. Det meste av oljen Kina importerer kommer fra Afrika og Midtøsten. Den raskeste ruta fra Afrika og Midtøsten til Kina går gjennom Malakkastredet, et av de mest traffikerte stredene i verden. Kina prøver å finne alternative ruter for naturressurser, et av alternativene er å frakte det gjennom Burma. Burma er regnet som det mest strategisk plasserte landet i Sørøstasia, og de andre nabo statene er uvillige til å la Kina få for stor innflytelse over Burma. India er spesielt bekymret over at Kina vil få for mye makt i det Indiske hav om Kina får utvikle baser i Burma.nor
dc.description.abstractThe aim of this thesis has been to find out how the strategic situation in Southeast Asia will be influenced by Chinas economic and political expansion. China’s leaders must balance growing energy demands with the ability to guarantee security in the shipping lanes. Most of the oil Chinese industry depends on comes from Africa and the Middle East. The fastest route from Africa and the Middle East to China is through the Straits of Malacca. The Straits of Malacca are the most trafficked sea route in Asia and one of the most important shipping lanes in the world. China is trying to find additional ways to transport natural resources. One possibility is to transport resources through Burma. Burma is considered to be the most strategically important country in Southeast Asia and the neighbouring countries are unwilling to let China gain total control over Burma. India in particular is worried that China might gain too much power in the Indian Ocean if China is allowed to develop and use ports and naval bases in Burma.eng
