00:43to ensure that there is adequate participation, to be treated fairly as we have treated some
00:51other countries, including EU and Canada, New Zealand and Australia, for example, other
00:58than India and China, Japan and Korea, to expand this at least as dialogue partners,
01:05Turkey as dialogue partner for ASEAN, and this will be given priority in our discussions.
