Some Aspects of India’s Cooperation in Science and Technology with ASEAN Countries

The purpose of the article is to analyze the main direction of the East Asian vector of Indian foreign economic policy in 2007-2018 - India’s ties with Southeast Asian countries. The article covers a wide range of analytical methods: statistical analysis, forecasting, comparison, theoretical generalization, statistical data processing, as well as abstract-logical analysis (to systematize and summarize the main directions of scientific and technological cooperation).The combined indicators of India and the countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) on R&D expenditures and their results were analyzed in detail. The author examines in detail the main objectives, principles and directions of technological interaction of the Indian government with the countries of South-East Asia. The article provides data on significant projects in the field of scientific and technical cooperation between India and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. India has shown great interest in expanding cooperation with the poorer members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, namely Cambodia, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Malaysia and Vietnam (CLMV), by implementing capacity building programs in areas in which India has proven its expertise, such as information technology, agriculture and outer space. It was noted that the interaction between the countries is characterized by much greater activity on the Indian side. India-ASEAN cooperation in science and technology is based on complementarity, with India generously sharing its “technical knowledge” and “resources” with ASEAN member countries at various levels. In general, scientific and technical cooperation contributes to the development of relations between India and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
