Arctic Newcomers: The View from Japan, South Korea and Singapore

Aki Tonami

Abstract

Interest in the Arctic region and its economic potential in Japan, South Korea and Singapore was slow to develop but is now rapidly growing. All three countries have in recent years accelerated their engagement with Arctic states, laying the institutional frameworks needed to better understand and influence policies relating to the Arctic. But each country’s approach is quite different, writes Aki Tonami.
