From what I read in OP they are discussing "connectivity", probably land connectivity. Malaysia and Singapore are too far, Phillipines doesn't have land borders.

Interesting as the UK must now kow tow to India and China following Brexit. Wanting to trade is normal and if you are not in a large trade union of states, sucking up to others will become the norm.

Or you could check which countries are included in the visits or not, and their land borders to China.

What that means is, "I'll trade you whatever you want so long as your money can connect with my bank account, of course there will be an envelope or two for you"
