This July, CSBA hosted the Secretary of Defense Executive Fellows program for a two-week orientation ahead of the Fellows’ training appointments in the private sector.

On June 24, 2024, CSBA Senior Fellow Toshi Yoshihara joined Paul M. Kennedy of Yale University, Emily O. Goldman of U.S. Cyber Command, and moderator John H. Maurer of the U.S. Naval War College at this year’s Current Strategy Forum, American Seapower and Maritime Statecraft.

Toshi Yoshihara and Universiti Malaya’s (UM) Associate Professor Roy Anthony Rogers delve into the intricacies of the U.S.-China relationship as well as ASEAN's role in maintaining regional stability amidst varying national alignments.

Malaysia should take a more proactive approach to defending its rights in the South China Sea, an American expert on China who has advised the Pentagon warned – urging the Southeast Asian nation to reject Beijing’s “excessive claims” over the disputed waters and protect its own long-term strategic goals.
 

Maritime expert Toshi Yoshihara warns that accommodating the superpower may later come with a heavy price.

The Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments (CSBA) is pleased to announce the launch of its latest analytical innovation, the China Strategic Choices Tool (SCT). Developed as the result of a dedicated multi-year research and analysis effort, the China Strategic Choices Tool builds on more than a decade of experience with CSBA’s proprietary U.S. Strategic Choices Tool. The China Strategic Choices Tool represents a truly unique analytical capability that allows users to explore Chinese defense investments as well as the costs associated with various defense options.
