Shangri-La Dialogue 2012

Arguably the biggest military-security meeting in Singapore is here with us again. Keynote for this year is Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. 

As usual, the Plenary Sessions (presentations and discussion) will be on the record, while the Special Sessions will be strictly off the record.

Topics for the special sessions below
  • Session 1:  Containing the South China Sea Disputes
  • Session 2:  The Armed Forces and Domestic Emergencies
  • Session 3:  Northeast Asian Dangers and Opportunities
  • Session 4:  Submarines and Regional Security
  • Session 5:  South Asia’s Growing Security Threats
Good topics selected. Almost all are problems that countries in our region are facing, in one way or another.
