China's growing development assistance has become commonly perceived as a threat to the autonomy and development of Southeast Asian countries that had promoted by Japan in the past. This paper challenges that understanding by comparing China's development assistance with Japan's engagement in the region. The comparison supports an alternative perspective, which sees Chinese development assistance as favorable for Japan's interests.
