As World Order Lab's inaugural courtesy meeting with a regional organization, this engagement marks an important milestone in our commitment to strengthening cooperation and dialogue across Southeast Asia.
The meeting served as an opportunity for both sides to exchange insights on their respective priorities and initiatives, as well as to explore potential areas of cooperation in advancing youth engagement, policy dialogue, and awareness of parliamentary diplomacy and regional cooperation within ASEAN. We were also pleased to reflect on the longstanding engagement of our members with AIPA initiatives.
