Deepening Regional Integration: A Core Theme
The ASE 2018 final program highlighted ASEAN’s commitment to deepening regional integration, recognizing its importance in navigating the complexities of the global landscape. Discussions centered around strengthening economic ties, promoting innovation and digital connectivity, and enhancing cooperation in areas such as security and sustainable development.
One of the key achievements of the summit was the signing of the landmark Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). This mega trade agreement, involving all ten ASEAN member states and six dialogue partners – China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and India – aims to establish the world’s largest trading bloc, encompassing a third of global GDP and nearly half the world’s population. The RCEP is expected to boost trade, attract foreign investment, and create new opportunities for businesses and individuals across the region.
Addressing Global Challenges: A Collective Effort
Beyond economic matters, the ASE 2018 final program underscored ASEAN’s proactive role in addressing pressing global challenges. Climate change, cybersecurity, and transnational crime were among the key issues discussed.
ASEAN leaders reaffirmed their commitment to the Paris Agreement and pledged to work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable development. They also emphasized the importance of strengthening cybersecurity cooperation to combat cyber threats and promote a safe and secure cyberspace. Additionally, the summit saw the adoption of a number of declarations and action plans aimed at enhancing cooperation in areas such as counter-terrorism, disaster management, and humanitarian assistance.
