We acknowledge that parliamentarians in ASEAN have a critical role while ASEAN has faced several challenging issues. We acknowledge that the AIPA is our common platform to help resolve the challenges in our region as we have established AIPA for all citizens in ASEAN.

However, we need more actions to help secure regional peace, stability, security and development which must be done by strategic collaboration among member parliaments.”
