Will ASEAN becomes irrelevant?
ASEAN will co-exist with BRICs, which is a much looser alliance. But until the populous nations like Thailand and Indonesia become more industrialized and bigger consumer markets, ASEAN's relevance will diminish since BRICs is now larger than either the EU or US, and has all the tech and knowhow that ASEAN needs.

Singapore as a US lackey will be in no-man's land, and will be royally screwed, we'll be deprived of a huge market for our exports.
