A HISTORIC event was achieved by the Asean grouping with their partners from China, South Korea, Japan, Australia and New Zealand to create a multilateral grouping that is focused on moving forward, especially in the context of US trade wars with China and the debacle of EU-UK Brexit.

While the rest of the world are caught up in their issues, Asean leaders have shown again that they are pragmatic and know the importance of working together to grow for their citizens. Kudos to all of them involved in this whole process. It is no surprise the next decade will be the decade of Asia.
