Read the following passage
carefully and answer questions 11 to 15:
Singapore
has long advocated for India to take up its role as an integral part of the
region. It is gratifying to see how Asean – India relations have grown during
the past 25 years. In 1991, when the Cold War ended and India began its
economic liberalization, Singapore saw an opportunity to deepen ties and build
on its historical and cultural links with the Asian region. Singapore pushed
for India to become a full Asean dialogue partner in 1995 and join the EAS in
1995 and since then, Asean – India ties have strengthened. All in all, around
30 platforms for co-operation exist, including seven ministerial
dialogues and the Annual Leader Summit. However, there is scope for more and it
is a must. For instance, there are tremendous opportunities in enhancing
physical and digital connectivity between India and Asean. Asean is committed
to strengthening land, air and sea linkages with India. These linkages will
enhance people-to-people flows, as well as boost business, investment and
tourism. The India-Myanmar Thailand trilateral highway will connect India’s
Northeast to mainland Southeast Asia. While one can y directly between India
and several Asean countries, there is still much room to expand air links to
support growing business and tourism. Beyond physical linkages, digital
connectivity, is the new frontier in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. India
has made great progress in innovation, Start-ups and digital inclusion. There
are opportunities to apply initiatives such as Aadhaar in our region.
E-commerce and FinTech are two other areas potential collaboration. As
an economic hub, Singapore can serve as a springboard to launch these ideas to
Southeast Asia and beyond. India’s role in Asean should be anchored by growing
economic ties with Singapore. The economic integration involving 16 countries
with one-third of global GDP and trade will create an integrated Asian market.
