“You must be the change you want to see in the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi
"Our political relations are infused with goodwill, warmth and trust".
Talking about the tare and commerce ties, he writes that with the ASEAN-India Free Trade Area (AIFTA), ASEAN-India trade has risen steadily from $2.9 billion in 1993 to $58.4 billion in 2016.
"Twitter is delighted to join the celebration with a customised emoji of the India Gate".
This does not mean that India was completely oblivious to the strategic importance of Southeast Asia. "These [ASEAN] nations also view China as a challenge and are hoping to find a trustworthy, reliable partner to counter China's bullying tactics", Vinay Kaura, coordinator at the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies in Rajasthan, told BenarNews, referring to tensions over the South China Sea. So a combination of several factors kept India and Southeast Asia apart for a considerable length of time.
Singapore is a window to the heritage of India's ties to the region, the progress of the present and the potential of the future. But this was also because of its economic reforms in 1991.

Puerto Rico residents grateful after OG&E crews restore power
DeLauro remains concerned with the lack of access to bare necessities and said it's "unacceptable". Virgin Islands for activities meant to revitalize the areas hit hard by Hurricane Maria.
More than two decades ago, India opened itself to the world with tectonic changes. Opening its economy also in a way opened up India's foreign policy. For long, India has talked of improving road and rail connections and a new port on Myanmar's Arakan coast, but its slothful energies have generally generated wariness. India was forced to reorient its approach toward global affairs in general and toward East Asia in particular. For the first time, the President of India (S. Radhakrishnan) could not take the salute at the Republic Day parade due to ill-health. India's Aadhaar system creates many new opportunities, for instance, to harmonize India-ASEAN Fintech platforms or connect e-payment systems.
Since the end of Cold War the world order has been changing even more rapidly. The region's geography dictates that the onus of region-wide connectivity devolves on India. Our defence ties are among the strongest for both. You can see a man blowing the Sringa, an ancient musical instrument; Kathputli, a form of traditional puppetry used to narrate folk tales; and the spinning wheel, an important symbol of India's history. Some of the key aircrafts who have participated so far are Sukhois, Jaguars, C-130 Transport Aircraft and India's home-grown Light Combat Aircraft Tejas. India's "Act East" policy is part of this larger dynamic.
With competing territorial claims in the Asia-Pacific region, Mr Modi said India favoured a "rules-based order for the oceans and seas" and respect for worldwide law. Instead of whining at China's bid to extend its rail network to Kathmandu, India could well deliberate with Nepal that recommended ten years ago a 174-km rail line to be built, connecting Birgunj with Kathmandu.
Instead, they re-doubled their efforts.
Over 20 per cent of India's outbound investments go to ASEAN.
