Asia Sentinel reported on the implications of US President Barack Obama's visit to Asia:

  • Mr. Obama’s Asian Vacation

    Security issues trumped everything else. Is China being ‘contained?’

  • Maintaining America’s Roots in Asia-Pacific

    United States must be seen as something more than a visitor if it intends to continue its 150-year presence in the Pacific

Obama in Japan:

  • Waving the Bloody Shirt in China and Japan

    Are Sino-Japanese relations heading for the rocks again?

  • Obama’s Mission Impossible: Japan and the TPP

    Abe won’t or can’t give on agriculture trade

  • Obama Visit to Japan a Test for US

    Alliance Faces Challenges in a Changing Asia

Obama in Malaysia:

  • Obama’s Cynical Malaysian Sojourn

    State visit avoided hard issues and gave Najib a pass on human rights

  • Accelerated Anwar Case Seen as Insult to US

    Numerous opposition figures also under intense court pressure as Obama heads to KL

  • The US Looks Good as Obama Heads to Malaysia

    In the contest for influence with China, Washington has played MH370 the right way

Obama in the Philippines:

  • Manila Gets Its US Protector Back

    But must make up for year of corruption and inattention to military affairs

  • US Nears Defense Pact with Philippines

    Signing could be during Obama’s visit
