Answer 1

Bloc's are basically the groups of support each nation belongs to. Each nation usually backs nations with similiar economic, social, and politically interests. So they usually are in voting blocs.  Japan is in the East Asia bloc. It usually votes on the same side as nations like Thailand and South Korea, because these nations have similair interests, If u need more info for MUN check out cyberschoolbus.com.

Answer 2

A bloc is a group of countries that cooperate on economic and security matters such as the European Union.  Japan could lead in the formation of the East Asian Union consisting of Korea, Mongolia and China in order to have their own bloc.
