MANILA – Timor-Leste will chair the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in 2029, Foreign Affairs Secretary Ma. Theresa Lazaro announced on Saturday.
The decision comes following the convening of the ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Pasay City on Saturday.
The Philippines is set to turn over its chairship to Singapore for 2027, which will then be succeeded by Thailand in 2028.
Timor-Leste’s upcoming chairship will be its first since its admission to ASEAN in 2025.
Last year, Timor-Leste Prime Minister Kay Rala Xanana Gusmao said the country will contribute to the shared goals and aspirations of the ASEAN Community — fostering economic growth, social progress and cultural advancement across the region. (PNA)
