KUALA LUMPUR: Staying responsive to the region’s most pressing challenges must be made a focus at the Asean Regional Forum (ARF), says Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan.
"Maritime tensions continue in key waterways, raising the risk of miscalculation. Cyber threats are escalating, undermining infrastructure, spreading disinformation, and eroding public trust. Climate change, once a distant risk, now presents multiple threats that worsen insecurity and displace communities," he said in his opening remarks at the ARF here on Friday (July 11).
