YOu misunderstood my point actually.
What i say is, if either Japan, South Korea or Australia Joined or have anything to do with ASEAN, then ASEAN is not an orgnaisation for Asia, but a simple Anti-Chinese Organisation
However, if ASEAN seek Indian participation, then it would be a balancing move for asiatic region.
It cannot be a more clearer indication than this.
ASEAN is a just a regional forum. The Organization serves as a "face" for the region. I don't think this whole "alliance" will ever come true. Its probably just tough talk from the Japanese mouthpiece to "scare" China. Even if they did succeed creating the alliance who are they going to bring into the table? Vietnam & Philippines MAYBE (huge emphasis), but other than that there's no country in the region who can offer anything to the alliance. Except of course the list of country you mention.
