Beijing, Nov.18 (People's Daily Online) --U.S. President Barack Obama recently gave an energetic lecture in Australia on how a more strengthened U.S.-Australia military alliance could safeguard the peace of the Asia-Pacific Region, and U.S. 

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton tried hard to persuade the Philippines to upgrade the historical alliance of the two countries so that they could meet new challenges of the 21st century. 

Then, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton will go to the Bali Island to attend the East Asia Summit. The United States is already an official member of the summit. 

The United States is a practical country, and its "return to Asia" policy is aimed at obtaining practical profits. The ultimate reason why the United States wants to occupy a dominant position in both the political and military areas is that it wants to get profits and promote its own development as much as possible. 

Actually, "returning to Asia" does not mean "returning," but means strengthening the United States' dominant position in Asia. If its dominant position is secured, it will be able to build up and shape Asia according to its own will and benefit itself from the development of Asia, especially the development of China. Then, two contradictions will emerge in the future political and economic situation of Asia. First, the United States' attitude towards China's development is mixed. The United States wants China to develop steadily, but at the same time, it also wants China to develop according the "rules of game" it establishes. 

Regarding this issue, other Asian countries have different standpoints, and that is the second contradiction. These Asian countries will try hard to balance themselves between China and Washington. In other words, they want to rely on China to develop their economies and rely on the United States to maintain the strategic balance of Asia.

The two contradictions will be a feature of the future development of Asia for a very long time. However, a common point could be found in these two contradictions, which is that no country is willing to fight a general war against China, neither the United States nor other Asian countries. 

Otherwise, it will not be a problem of profit, but will be, to certain extent, a matter of mutually assured destruction. Meanwhile, all these countries wish that China could maintain its sustainable development momentum so that they could benefit from it too. Due to these two points, we should be more confident about the future peaceful development of Asia.
