Speech on the Occasion of the 41st Anniversary of ASEAN.

This speech was delivered at a ceremony to celebrate the 41st ASEAN anniversary. Over the past 41 years, ASEAN has become a comprehensive regional cooperation organisation which embraces all 10 countries of Southeast Asia, a dynamic and cohesive entity engaged in both political-security, economic and functional cooperation. It is also playing an increasingly important role in the region and the world.  The Association has become an indispensable partner in the world community and an important factor in promoting dialogue and cooperation at different levels in Asia and the Pacific.

ASEAN is now at a new stage of development, moving toward the establishment of the ASEAN Communities on the basis of the ASEAN Charter. ASEAN is to become an intergovernmental organization, working on the principles of sovereign equality among member countries and other purposes and principles enshrined in the Charter already ratified by many of its members.

As a member, Vietnam should actively participate and take the lead in ASEAN activities, thus making contribution to further development of the Association.
