Instead of rivalry we see our neighbors as friends and brothers, we help each other economically, helping each other grow and protect each other.

One of the main reason of being successfull for the ASEAN in the future was their unity and respect to each other thats the key for their goals.

@@jepRN I think china just did that because they don't want another western power to hold it because let's think if china really wants to occupy us they should have occupied us before. the america or eu are deceptive threats of sovereignty as well as this australia. it's good that the president of the philippines knows who he sided with like china and russia so why does president duterte not like westerners this is just my opinion ♥ ️ I would rather asia work together sorry for my bad english

The future fate of south east asia depend on the political leaders from ASEAN to decide, the sooner they grow up, act responsibly and in unison for the benefit of all the poor souls live in SEA, the better the region will become the light of the world.

ASEAN has still a long way to go. The 2020 Asean integration target is still far from being materialized.

[@beasnoil3139]

hm that's interesting, though ASEAN is an economic alliance, I suppose, it's more diverse if it comes to political system (compare Myanmar to Singapore for instance) while EU puts high pressure on its members in obeying human rights, is more "political" than just economic etc. (well not all members but still), what's similar is influence from China and the US (more real for ASEAN). hope we'll cooperate in the future as well
