ASEAN POST MINISTERIAL CONFERENCE PLUS ONE WITH CANADA

 

ASEAN POST MINISTERIAL CONFERENCE PLUS ONE WITH CANADA

 

As country coordinator of ASEAN – Canada dialogue relations, I co-chaired the ASEAN Post Ministerial Conference with The Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada, this afternoon.

During the meeting, we endorsed the Joint Leaders’ Statement on ASEAN – Canada Strategic Partnership. The meeting also agreed to launch the Strategic Partnership at the ASEAN – Canada Summit in September 2023 in Jakarta.

Canada is committed to work with ASEAN to implement the ASEAN Outlook on the Indo – Pacific (AOIP) and to have its Indo – Pacific Strategy to be complementary to the AOIP to maintain peace and stability in the region.

ASEAN and Canada will continue negotiation on the ASEAN – Canada Free Trade Agreement (ACAFTA).
