[Pages:5]Free and Open Indo-Pacific
"Diplomacy that takes a panoramic perspective of the world map"
"Proactive Contribution to Peace" based on the principle of international cooperation
Based on the accomplishments of the Abe Administration, Japan intends to further expand these diplomatic concepts
Free and Open Indo-Pacific
A key for stability and prosperity of the international community is dynamism that is created by combining
"Two Continents" : Asia that is rapidly growing and Africa that possess huge potential of growth; and "Two Oceans" : Free and open Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean
broaden the horizon of Japanese foreign policy by envisioning the above as an overarching, comprehensive concept
Africa
Full of potential
population around 1.3 billion (17% of global population) around 2.5 billion in 2050
account for 30,000,000 (22% of global area
high economic growth rate (4.8% on average (2000-2016))
rich in natural resources and promising markets
progressing as a "developing continent" whereas still facing challenges including by poverties and terrorism.
Japan will provide nation-building support in the area of development as well as politics and governance, in a way that respects the ownership of African countries, and not by forcing on or intervening in them.
The Indo-Pacific region is facing various challenges such as piracy, terrorism, proliferation of WMD, natural disasters and attempts to change the status quo. Under such circumstances, Japan aims to promote peace, stability and prosperity across the region to make the Indo-Pacific free and open as "international public goods", through ensuring rules-based international order including the rule of law, freedom of navigation and overflight, peaceful settlement of disputes, and promotion of free trade.

The Pacific Ocean
Asia
Increase of awareness of confidence, responsibility and leadership, as well as democracy, the rule of law and market economy taking root in ASEAN and South Asian countries
Currently expanding its success to Africa and bring out the potential of Africa as a "global main player " through a free and open Indo-Pacific.
Japan will further promote quality infrastructure development, trade and investment, and enhance business environment and human development, strengthening connectivity in ASEAN region. Japan will expand ASEAN's success to other regions such as the Middle East and Africa.
Basic concept to realize free and open Indo-Pacific
Develop a free and open Indo-Pacific region as "international public goods", through ensuring the rule-based international order, in a comprehensive, inclusive and transparent manner, attaching importance to ASEAN's centrality and unity, in order to bring stability and prosperity for every country as well as secure peace and prosperity in the region as a whole. Japan will cooperate with any country that supports this idea.
Three pillars to realize free and open Indo-Pacific: Promotion and establishment of the rule of law, freedom of navigation, free trade, etc. Pursuit of economic prosperity (improving connectivity and strengthening economic partnership including EPA/FTAs and investment treaties) Commitment for peace and stability (capacity building on maritime law enforcement, HA/DR cooperation, etc.)
Enhance "connectivity" between Asia and Africa through free and open Indo-Pacific, and, with ASEAN as the hinge of two oceans, promote stability and prosperity of the region as a whole.
