Summary
A timely look at the impact of China's booming emergence on the countries of Southeast Asia.
Today, Southeast Asia stands uniquely exposed to the waxing power of the new China. Three of its nations border China, and five are directly impacted by its claims over the South China Sea. All dwell in the lengthening shadow of its influence: economic, political, military, and cultural. As China seeks to restore its former status as Asia's preeminent power, the countries of Southeast Asia face an increasingly stark choice: flourish within Beijing's orbit or languish outside of it. Meanwhile, as rival powers including the United States take concerted action to curb Chinese ambitions, the region has emerged as an arena of heated strategic competition.
Drawing on more than a decade of on-the-ground experience, Sebastian Strangio explores the impacts of China's rise on Southeast Asia, the varied ways in which the countries of the region are responding, and what it might mean for the future balance of power in the Indo-Pacific.

Great stuff.
Detailed, surprisingly impartial and any bias is offset by the huge quantity of information. As of writing this review still very up to date.

Highly relevant and researched
Want to understand modern China and the near peer environment? This is the book for you. It looks at the issues around China, its territorial expansion or BRI scheme with other countries. It explains it from the Chinese perspective and individual countries with a chapter on each country covered. Very informative and well researched.
