The U.S. is important geopolitically, but China is the 'real game' in terms of business for Southeast Asia, says Karim Raslan of KRA Group.

"Actually, to be frank, I don't think Southeast Asians really care," he told CNBC'son Wednesday. "Southeast Asians have already experienced an enormous boom in bilateral trade with China."

"The U.S. is a sideshow. It's important for geopolitics, but the real game in terms of business — and these are mercantilist nations — is China." Raslan noted that Southeast Asia is China's largest trading group, after surpassing both the U.S. and the European Union this year. "I think what we've got to bear in mind is that the perception of U.S. power, U.S. influence, has diminished enormously," he said.

Wrong, doing business with America is quite annoying with so much requirements.
