Wednesday 28 November 2018

There is a widespread view across the various UK-ASEAN societies and groups that more can be done to enhance the overall UK- ASEAN Links. These links cover all aspects of the relationship, in both directions, including trade and investment, education, tourism, and cultural links. The various bodies below welcome the setting up of the UK ASEAN Business Council in 2011 and the All Party Parliamentary ASEAN Group created in 2018. The 3 Trade Envoys covering ASEAN and the new Trade Commissioner to be based in Singapore also have an important role to play.In the context of Brexit, it is critical that there is a united voice to get the message over that the UK is Open and Welcoming to Investors, Students, and Tourists from ASEAN.
So far the Societies and groups below have agreed to join together to enhance UK-ASEAN links by holding a Reception for members and guests on 28 November 2018.
