He said the ASEAN Summit provides an opportunity for all ASEAN countries, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and China to discuss regional issues, strengthen ties and increase trade. 'In addition, there are many issues that exist now, but the priority in ASEAN is to resolve the issues in Myanmar, and we have a solution where Malaysia is taking an important role to bring Myanmar back to the path that we all want. 'And I think the cooperation between ASEAN and the GCC, as well as China, where we have an opportunity to build a bloc that can trade more together,' he told the media after officiating the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) International Accountants Conference 2025 here today. The 46th ASEAN Summit, organised under Malaysia's ASEAN Chairmanship 2025 with the theme, 'Inclusivity and Sustainability', is also the fifth time since Malaysia chaired the regional bloc in 1977, 1997, 2005 and 2015.
