JAKARTA: Indonesia's Foreign Minister Sugiono (pic) will join his Asean counterparts in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia next week for the 58th Asean Foreign Ministers' Meeting and a series of related engagements from July 8 to 11. Indonesia's Foreign Ministry Director-General for Asean Cooperation, Siddharto Suryodhipuro, said Sugiono would participate in various sessions including regional dialogues and bilateral meetings with Asean's key partners. "The AMM is an opportunity for South-East Asia to address regional and global developments. Given the current dynamics in international politics, the ministers will discuss a range of issues, including those affecting South-East Asia and global situations impacting the region,' he told a press briefing here on Thursday (July 3). Siddharto said Sugiono is also scheduled to co-chair the Asean-Australia meeting alongside his Australian counterpart, as Indonesia currently serves as Asean's coordinator for relations with Australia. Malaysia currently holds the Asean chairmanship for 2025. It marks the country's fifth time at the helm of the regional grouping since its previous chairmanships in 1977, 1997, 2005 and 2015.
