The 55th ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting and Related Meetings: Strengthening Multilateralism

With such optimism and multilateralism on show, it is imperative to analyse how ASEAN and Cambodia, as ASEAN chair in 2022, defend and promote multilateralism, an effective mechanism for fostering international collaborations in tackling current regional and global issues.
