This Whitehall Paper is an examination of China's relations over its western borders, looking at the interplay between China's relations with South and Central Asia, and its relations with other great adjacent powers. Based on a two-year research project that included travel and workshops in South and Central Asia, this Paper examines Beijing's changing impact and relationship with its near neighbourhood. Conceived prior to the announcement of Xi Jinping's 'Belt and Road Initiative' research for this report was undertaken in the shadow of the September 2013 announcement and the 'Belt and Road' ultimately proved to be the driving framework under which this report was drafted. The report sketches out the roots of the initiative, and how it is being felt on the ground, exploring in detail how it is being received in China's immediate neighbourhood where its impact is most significant for China.

ABSTRAK
Inisiatif Silk Road Economic Belt SREB dari China menimbulkan baik entusiasme maupun keresahan di seluruh penjuru dunia. Pembangunan dari SREB akan memudahkan aliran ekonomi antara Eropa dengan Asia yang kemudian meningkatkan kerjasama dan kemakmuran di kawasan tersebut. Namun motif asli dibalik pengembangan SREB masih menjadi pertanyaan besar. Uni Eropa hingga saat ini belum memberikan respons resmi terhadap inisiatif tersebut, sementara Jerman telah menunjukkan dukungan mereka atas hal tersebut. Studi ini menganalisa motivasi dari Jerman untuk mendukung SREB melalui Teori International Political Economy. Variabel Pursuit of Wealth digunakan untuk menganalisa manfaat ekonomi yang didapat oleh Jerman dari pengembangan SREB, dan variable Pursuit of Power digunakan untuk menjelaskan kepentingan politik antara Jerman, SREB, dan juga Uni Eropa. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Jerman tengah berusaha menggunakan SREB sebagai alatnya untuk merealisasikan kepentingan ekonomi dan politiknya di Uni Eropa.

ABSTRACT
China rsquo s Silk Road Economic Belt SREB initiative is raising both concerns and excitement around the globe. The development of the SREB will increase the flow of economy between Europe and Asia and in turn is supposed to raise cooperation and prosperity amongst the region. However the true motive of SREB either it be politics or economics, remains a big question. The European Union have not made an official stance towards the initiative, however Germany have shown indications of their support. This study analyzes the motivation of German in doing so through the International Political Economy Theory. The Pursuit of Wealth variable is used to analyze the economic benefits Germany may receive from the SREB, while the Pursuit of Power variable is used in attempts to understand the politics involving Germany, SREB and the European Union. The results shows that Germany is trying to utilize the SREB as a vehicle in pursuing its economic and political interest in the European Union.
