Followed by a two panel discussion on Friday, November 9. The first panel will concentrate on how the FOIP concept applies to East Asia and the Pacific. The second panel will focus on the concept’s relevance and impact in the Indian Ocean region, extending from the Middle East to the Malacca Straits.
