ASIA-EUROPE MEETING (ASEM) DAY, 1 MARCH 2020
On 1 March 2020, Malaysia commemorates the 24th Anniversary of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) process. Malaysia is proud to stand with 53 ASEM Partners in celebration of ASEM Day.
Since its inception in 1996, ASEM continues to play its role as a unique platform for cooperation and integration between Asia and Europe based on the three pillars of political, economic and socio-cultural. ASEM Partners represent 60% of the global population, 55% of global trade, 65% of global economy and 75% of global tourism. ASEM Partners should capitalize on the potential and strengths of both continents in building a more stable and prosperous future.
Malaysia looks forward to the upcoming 13th ASEM Summit to be held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, on 16-17 November 2020, with the theme “Strengthening Multilateralism for Shared Growth”.
Malaysia reiterates its commitment to contribute actively in the ASEM process to address present and future global challenges while maintaining and enhancing mutually beneficial linkages.
