ISAS Working Papers

South Asia is att racting more and more concerns in the international political arena , and it is China's close neighbour in the southwest . International political observers generally agree that South Asia is not only the subcontinent closely adjacent to China but also the w restling field full of geopolitical competitions, while it is also more of a breeding ground for terrorism in recent years .
