Tracing the historical development of Japan-Southeast Asia relations, this study explains the "ASEAN factor" in Japanese security policy. While actual security ties between Japan and ASEAN are quite rudimentary, the significance of the latter's stability and prosperity in Japanese security policy has been growing in recent years. The paper concludes that, as Japan's political role in the region becomes more visible, the prospect of Japan-ASEAN security collaboration may need to be explored further.
