Dr M: Asean remains relevant, should forge greater cooperation to face superpowers


PHNOM PENH (Bernama): Malaysian Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said on Monday (Sept 2) that Asean has remained as a relevant regional grouping in the world, and should continue to strengthen its cooperation in facing challenges and influences by superpowers.

He said many may claim that today’s Asean is not as active as before, but they could not deny the fact that the 10-member economic bloc is among the few regional groupings which had survived so far.
