CIL Dialogue with Ambassador Merdado Macaraig, Philippines)-page-001

The Co-Moderators of the Dialogue are Professor Tommy Koh and Dr Nilüfer Oral.

The Philippines assumes the ASEAN Chairship this year with great responsibility in the middle of global uncertainty. The Philippines reaffirms its commitment to steer ASEAN towards our shared aspirations under the theme “Navigating Our Future, Together.” Three central priorities "Peace and Security Anchors, Prosperity Corridors, and People Empowerment" guide ASEAN's work this year. The central challenge for the Philippine Chairship lies in bridging ambition and implementation - ensuring that even with external shocks and internal constraints, ASEAN continues to function effectively as a platform for dialogue, cooperation, and collective action.
