00:00You also said that Malaysia is acting like a bridge between ASEAN and China.
00:09So as Malaysia is the chair of this year's ASEAN-China Summit,
00:13what are some of the things in the roadmap for Malaysia to play this role?
00:21Your first question on China and ASEAN,
00:25we have substantially concluded the China-ASEAN FTA,
00:28but we want to complete the conclusion of that.
00:33We have spoken to our member countries,
00:36we are negotiating well, we are working as a team,
00:39and we are optimistic that we can conclude the upgrade of the China-ASEAN FTA,
00:44which is an important upgrade to cover the digital economy,
00:49to cover the green economy especially.
00:52And also at the same time, since ARCEP took into place,
00:57the Regional Cooperative Economic Partnership Agreement,
01:00we have seen trade between China and ASEAN increase considerably as well.
