ASEAN Community Vision 2045 Likely To Uphold Core Values Of Peace, Stability
KUALA LUMPUR, May 24 (Bernama) -- The ASEAN Community Vision (ACV) 2045, a new 20-year framework set to be launched on Monday in conjunction with the 46th ASEAN Summit, is expected to continue striving towards ASEAN's core values of peace, stability, prosperity, and sustainable development.
An expert in geopolitical and Asian studies, Prof Dr James Chin of the University of Tasmania, said the new vision will be very similar to the ACV 2025 launched in 2015, with greater emphasis towards inclusivity, sustainability, and resilience that will benefit nearly 700 million people in the region.
'Maybe there will be something regarding Timor Leste, too. With the launch of the new vision, we can expect that every country will be trying very hard towards the aims, and target towards a better ASEAN Community.
'But it will depend on each country – how far they're going to push for it; some countries will perform better than others,' said the Director of the Asia Institute Tasmania, when contacted.
