What ideas do you have on this essay topic? (About the Pacific Rim)?

Okay, i think should do some research into the economic relationships of the countries on the pacific Rim and maybe move on to assessing how those relationships affect the rest of the world. Maybe comment on their economic strong points, agriculturally successful countries and their contribution, technologically successful etc etc. Maybe do something about natural resources governing the relationships of each country - they all need them but only some can supply them etc.
