How will ASEAN tackle recent growing challenges?

ASEAN recently concluded its 48th summit – but it looked unlike any in recent memory. Shortened to just a day and a half, the meeting in the Philippines focused heavily on three urgent issues: oil, food and migrant workers. Regional anxieties have deepened following the strikes by the US and Israel on Iran, alongside sweeping tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on ASEAN economies such as Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. So, how serious is the energy crisis in the ASEAN region? What do these converging pressures mean for its member states? And what solutions might be available to address these growing challenges?
Guests in this edition of Dialogue are Zhou Mi, senior research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation; Anna Rosario Malindog-Uy, director and vice president for external affairs at the Asian Century Philippines Strategic Studies Institute; and John Pang, senior fellow of the Belt and Road Initiative Caucus for Asia Pacific (BRICAP) and former Malaysian government official.
