00:00General Assembly of the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly.

00:04Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

00:08We have our summit in October, and it's very challenging to ASEAN leaders.

00:16We'll have President Donald Trump of the United States.

00:23Here we will have Premier League Chair.

00:25I'm not too sure, Vladimir Putin has not confirmed, but he mentioned to me that the likelihood is coming.

00:34Don't envy me, it's a major task to navigate all those times.

00:40And then we have Modi of India, Prime Minister of Korea, Japan, and Canada, Italy, EU, Brazil,

00:52President Lula, and Syria Ramaphosa of South Africa.

01:00So we're not talking about just 10 plus, 11 countries.

01:04We're talking about countries that are getting enough attention and interest from countries in Asia, in Europe, in Africa, in Latin America.

01:17So the rest is up to IPA to make sure that you benefit from these exchanges.

01:24And I'm sure once this is somewhat formalized, the relations, I'm sure the parliamentarians,

01:35as we have exchanges with the EU now, with IPA, would continue.

01:42So it is a very challenging and expanded road.

01:46But we must be very clear one-on-one.

01:49We must not compromise on the issue of good governance.

01:52We must not compromise on the issue of leading our societies and countries of endemic corruption and abuse of power.

02:01And we must make sure they remain focused.

02:02about sustainability means economic growth, but care for the welfare of our people.

02:13Terima kasih.

02:13Wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
