Outlines six key goals for member states, as UN chief Ban Ki-Moon backs the group's 2030 vision

 

BANGKOK: -- LEADERS AT the Asia Cooperation Dialogue summit yesterday adopted a vision and action plan for cooperation to build the Asian Community in the next 14 years, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-cha said yesterday. 

During the 2nd summit of the 34 member forum at the Foreign Ministry, Prayut highlighted the need for states to realise the ACD Vision 2030, one of several goals of the Bangkok-hosted summits - to try to achieve a community for the countries across the continent.

 

"[It would] envisage Asia as a continent of inclusive and sustainable growth," Prayut said, with "seamless connectivity, people-centred stability and peace, dynamic innovation, research and development, as well as qualified and capable human resources".
