ASEAN has 10 countries but China is only forging closer relationships with 6 ASEAN countries leaving out Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore & Philippines.
However, Philippines has managed to foster a strategic relationship with China by becoming the facilitator between China & ASEAN. Therefore, Philippines and China will have a closer working relationship since Philippines has become the mouthpiece for China. Malaysia has also managed to build a port alliance with China with the Melaka Gateway development.

Thus, only Singapore and Indonesia are left out of the ASEAN equation.
We need to monitor the ASEAN situation closely or we'll be ostracized.
