Furthermore, Wang Yi's latest overture expressed willingness to work with Asean over Beijing's collective security framework, known as the Treaty of Good Neighbourliness, Friendship and Cooperation. China has already suggested the setting up of a working group to discuss this proposal but Asean is still recalcitrant. Instead, the Asean foreign ministers have tasked Indonesia to put together all security proposals submitted by Russia, India, Indonesia as well as China into one document, which would be part of the ongoing discussion on regional security architecture.
At this juncture, Asean wants to concentrate on the code of conduct process while China wants to work in parallel on both the code of conduct and the proposed treaty with Asean. The latest move would further increase constraint over the formulation of the next action plans for the 2016-2020 period, which must be completed before the next Asean-China Summit in November. During the first 15-years of Asean-China relations, the grouping gave special preferences to China due to its strong support of the grouping's positions - the Asean centrality - in all Asean-led forums. That helped explain the reason the bilateral relations have 44 committees at various levels, the most extensive among all Asean dialogue partners. The Asean perception of China is quite different following the growing tension in the South China Sea that began in 2010.
