PM Reiterates Commitment to Follow ASEAN Charter

PHNOM PENH: Prime Minister Hun Sen has once again announced that he will follow the ASEAN Charter as Cambodia to start chairing the regional group next month. The Prime Minister says that as the chair of ASEAN, the head of the Royal Government of Cambodia has declared that it is not right to become the chair of ASEAN and not invite all ASEAN members to the full meeting, and when ASEAN members are less than 10 countries it’s not called ASEAN.

He says, "It is not possible if it still ASEAN 9, must rescued from ASEAN 9 to ASEAN 10, which is the most important thing for ASEAN. The situation in Myanmar is one thing, but before helping Myanmar to have a real ASEAN, this is not a joke, otherwise it will create a dangerous habit: the ASEAN chair does not like anyone to be invited in the meeting is not called ASEAN, where is ASEAN values?"

The ASEAN Constitution was adopted and came into force on 15 December 2008 by a meeting of the Foreign Ministers of the 10 ASEAN countries at the ASEAN Secretariat in Jakarta, Indonesia during the 13th ASEAN Summit 2007 in Singapore.

The ASEAN Constitution is known as the cornerstone of ASEAN in the establishment of the ASEAN Community and is framed by ASEAN, ASEAN Laws, ASEAN Values, ASEAN's clear principles and responsibilities under ASEAN law. The ASEAN Charter has become a legally binding agreement of the 10 ASEAN member states.

Regarding the case of Myanmar or Burma, Prime Minister Hun Sen will travel to Myanmar in early January 2022 to pave the way for the progress of the ASEAN Five-Point Consensus Agreement. The visit of Prime Minister Hun Sen in early January 2022 is at the invitation of the President of the State Council and the Prime Minister of Myanmar, while Cambodia will chair ASEAN in 2022.
