Regional security order which is a complex combination of actors and factors is no longer
associated exclusively with political and military might. Asia has experienced significant changes
in its regional preponderance like economic interdependence and interconnectedness. The
phenomenal economic growth of some countries is attributed to its ascendance. The Asian
region has become a cauldron of global economic and geopolitical transformation. In this regard,
the specter of Maritime Silk Road China with regards to Pakistan Economic Corridor and China
Myanmar Economic Corridor are glaring examples enclusively in this region. They have
heralded metamorphosis in the pearls of the string by providing an alternate route making Indian
Ocean a hub for trans-regional connectivity through multifold alternative routes. History is
witnessed for the benefits of certain alteration in the routes such the Panama Canal and Suez
Canal. To find such alternation of routes in Indian Ocean Region (IOR) has caused a competition
between China and India which can have multiple effects.
