(CNN) -- President Barack Obama is visiting China, Myanmar and Australia this week for a series of key regional summits. The trip is his first opportunity since his Democratic Party's massive defeat in the midterm elections to demonstrate the power of the presidency. Surveys conducted by the Center for Strategic and International Studies show strong support outside China for the President's announced "pivot" or "rebalance" to the Asia-Pacific region. The same polls show that experts across Asia see great resilience in the U.S. economy and expect -- and want -- America to continue leading Asian integration and cooperation in the future despite the sudden rise of Chinese power. Indeed, it is largely because of the aggressive way China is using its power that allies and partners want more commitment from Washington.
