New cultural hub opens in Seoul to strengthen ties between South Korea and Asean
Visitors view displays at the inaugural exhibition, 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia,' held at the Korea Press Centre on Friday. - Asean-Korea Centre via The Korea Herald/ANN SEOUL: The Asean-Korea Centre has officially opened the Seoul Asean Hall, a new cultural hub for Asean-Korea exchange, on Friday (Aug 8), with an inaugural exhibition titled 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia.' The opening coincides with Asean Day, marking the 58th anniversary of Asean. Located on the first floor of the Korea Press Centre, the Seoul Asean Hall is designed as a multipurpose exhibition venue. It aims to highlight cooperation across culture, tourism and economy between South Korea and the Asean member states. Since 2009, the Asean-Korea Centre has maintained a small information corner on the eighth floor. The newly relocated and expanded space on the more accessible first floor signals a push to increase public visibility and greater access for all, said the Asean-Korea Centre Secretary-General Kim Jae-shin during the opening remarks. 'The Seoul Asean Hall is an open space designed to introduce the rich cultures of the Asean region to the South Korean public and to foster future-oriented cooperation based on mutual understanding," said Kim. According to the Asean-Korea Centre, all 10 Asean member states took part in planning and executing the exhibitions and programmes. 'I hope this space will serve as a key platform for Asean-Korea collaboration,' said Kim. 'Through visits to the Seoul Asean Hall, I also hope the Korean public will engage more closely with South-East Asia's rich cultural resources and deepen their understanding of the region.' The Seoul Asean Hall is divided into a permanent exhibition area showcasing cultural and tourism assets from the Asean countries and a special zone dedicated to thematic exhibits. Running through Feb. 13, 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia' offers a sensory exploration of daily life in Southeast Asia and the region's heritage through the motif of tropical fruit. Once viewed as exotic and rare, South-East Asian fruits have become commonplace in South Korea, reflecting the growing trade and cultural exchange between the regions. The exhibition uses fruit as a metaphor for bridging tradition and modernity, locality and universality, through artworks, crafts, lifestyle items and digital media sourced from across Asean, according to the Asean-Korea Centre. Senior officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ambassadors and other representatives from Asean member states and leading figures from the cultural and business sectors attended the opening ceremony. The Asean-Korea Centre also operates Jeju Asean Hall at the Jeju International Peace Centre, which opened in 2022. - The Korea Herald/ANN

Aseanta launches tourism awards, digital platform on Asean Day
JAKARTA: (Bernama-Antara) The Asean Tourism Association (Aseanta) has launched two initiatives to expand tourism opportunities in Southeast Asian countries, reported Antara news agency. "The first is the 39th Aseanta Tourism Awards, and the second is the Discover Asean microsite by AirAsia MOVE,' said Aseanta President Eddy Krismeidi at the launch event held at the Asean Secretariat in Jakarta on Friday (Aug 8). Eddy said the two initiatives not only reflect Aseanta's response to current tourism challenges but also its readiness to seize future opportunities. "These initiatives reflect our determination to recover, innovate, and thrive,' he said. The Aseanta Tourism Awards, he explained, have been held for 39 editions and have long served as a platform to recognise and honour the best in Asean tourism-from community-based initiatives to large-scale innovations in marketing, sustainability, and excellence in tourism services. Registration for the Aseanta Tourism Awards is now open and will close on Oct 31,2025, with the winners to be officially announced at the Asean Tourism Forum 2026 in the Philippines. The second initiative presented at the event was the launch of the Discover Asean microsite, a digital travel booking platform from AirAsia MOVE, introduced by Aseanta in collaboration with AirAsia. "This microsite curates essential and inspiring content, from cuisine, culture, and attractive destinations to verified immigration links and the latest travel information,' he said. The application, he added, integrates tourism services that travelers need and want while also enabling easy access to flights and hotel rooms. "In this way, intra-Asean travel becomes more intuitive, informative, and inspiring,' Eddy said. Meanwhile, Indonesia's Deputy Minister of Tourism Ni Luh Puspa expressed the government's appreciation for Aseanta's efforts in realising the two initiatives. According to her, both initiatives are a tangible manifestation of a collective commitment that strengthens digital innovation, public-private collaboration, and shared sustainability values to reshape the regional tourism landscape. "The values of peace, solidarity, and cooperation that define Asean are reflected today through our shared aspirations for an integrated, competitive, and sustainable tourism sector,' she said. In addition to Deputy Minister Ni Luh Puspa, the launch of the two initiatives was also attended by Asean Deputy Secretary-General Nararya S. Soeprapto and AirAsia MOVE Head of Strategic Partnerships Yizhen Fung. - Bernama-Antara

Over 4,000 join Asean Solidarity Cycling Tour 2025
KUALA TERENGGANU: More than 4,000 participants, including those from Asean member countries, took part in the Asean Solidarity Cycling Tour 2025, at Dataran Batu Buruk, here today. Deputy Youth and Sports Minister Adam Adli Abdul Halim stated that the cycling and running event aims to promote a healthy lifestyle and strengthen Asean regional ties. "This is a testament to how sports serve as a unifying force, not only for Malaysians in general but also for strengthening regional ties under the Asean umbrella," he told reporters after flagging off the participants. He said Terengganu was chosen as the venue for the programme, held in conjunction with Malaysia's Asean Chairmanship this year, as the state has long dominated cycling events and produced many outstanding athletes in the sport. Adam Adli said it is a one-off event, but the ministry hoped that similar events could be organised again in the future. Meanwhile, Cambodian participant Kloth Karaney, 39, said the programme could also promote tourism destinations in Asean countries, particularly Malaysia, as well as nurture good communication and strong relationships among people from Asean member states. Vietnamese participant Tran Chong Thai, 36, who is visiting Malaysia for the first time, commended the event, adding that he would promote the country's tourism destinations to his friends back home. "I love this city (Kuala Terengganu). The event is good and the food here is also very nice," he added.
