Message from the Prime Minister
Malaysia is pleased and honoured to chair ASEAN in 2015 - the year the ASEAN Economic
Community will be actualised. We are also delighted to welcome all delegates to the
ASEAN and related Summits and associated events. As Chair of ASEAN, we hope to focus
on People Centred ASEAN so that ASEAN becomes more relevant to the ordinary people
of ASEAN and develop a sense of Aseaness.
We welcome the annual initiative of the Asian Strategy & Leadership Institute (ASLI) to
organise the ASEAN Leadership Forum (ALF) held alongside the April Summit of ASEAN.
This year the ALF travels from Nay Pyi Taw, Phnom Penh, Jakarta and Bangkok to Kuala
Lumpur and will be held alongside the ASEAN Summit on 26th and 27th April 2015.
The ASEAN Leadership Forum has become institutionalised as a leading regional
programme, bringing together Government, Business, Civil Society and Thought Leaders
to deliberate on the future of ASEAN and to debate the issues and driving forces shaping
the future of ASEAN. I believe this year’s Forum will help define ideas for a post 2015 vision
for ASEAN and that the deliberations at the ALF can be very useful inputs and feedback
for the leaders.
I am confident that the ASEAN Leadership Forum will continue to play a useful role in being
a bridge between Government, Business and Civil Society. It will also enable the business
community to be updated on new developments in ASEAN and the prospects ahead
arising from the full implementation of the AEC. The engagement with the younger
generation as future leaders is also timely and relevant. Once again I compliment ASLI as
well as the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) for organising this timely and
apt Forum.
I welcome all delegates to Kuala Lumpur and wish you a pleasant stay and successful
deliberations.
YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak
Prime Minister of Malaysia
12th ASEAN LEADERSHIP FORUM
“FORWARD ASEAN: One Community, One Vision, One People”
Malaysia will host the 26th ASEAN Summit on 26th & 27th April 2015. The Asian Strategy & Leadership Institute
(ASLI) will, on the sidelines of the ASEAN Summit, be holding the 12th ASEAN Leadership Forum, which is held
annually in conjunction with the April Summit of ASEAN.
The ASEAN Leadership Forum (ALF) has been held in Nay Pyi Taw, Phnom Penh, Jakarta, Bangkok, Singapore
and Kuala Lumpur in past years and have been attended by and addressed by Leaders of ASEAN such as
President Thein Sein of Myanmar, Prime Minister YAB Dato’ Sri Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak of Malaysia, Prime
Minister Hun Sen of Cambodia, Vice President Jusuf Kalla of Indonesia, then President Susilo Bambang
Yudhoyono, then Prime Minister of Thailand Abhisit Vejjajiva and former President Fidel Ramos among others.
The ALF brings together Government, Business, Civil Society and Thought Leaders to discuss and reflect on
the challenges and key issues facing ASEAN and what each year will bring to ASEAN as it journeys towards an
ASEAN Community.
This year is especially critical as the ASEAN Economic Community will be realised at the end of 2015. The
Forum will enable the private sector to take stock of what has been achieved, where the shortcomings are and
what more can be done to further strengthen community building and ASEAN integration.
The ALF has been widely recognised as a high-powered Forum providing timely platforms for a critical
discussion of the strategic issues facing ASEAN and to share valuable knowledge and information on the future of
ASEAN.
ALF enables a senior executive interchange among key Government, Business, Civil Society and Thought Leaders
to feel the pulse of ASEAN and the tempo of development in the region. This year the realisation of the AEC will
make the Forum more interesting as participants debate the future of ASEAN competiveness, having moved from
community to connectivity and centrality.
The ALF will enable participants to be updated on the AEC and other key developments in the region such as the
Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) as well as The Transpacific Partnership (TTP)
Agreement and how these will benefit ASEAN businesses.
The ALF is a must-attend Forum for those interested in being updated on ASEAN. It is highly relevant for business
leaders, entrepreneurs, SMEs, and researchers in ASEAN and civil society groups keen on regional developments.
Key questions on ASEAN will be answered and debated.
The Forum will give voice to business leaders, think tank leaders and young leaders to share their thoughts and
perspectives on how ASEAN can progress and benefit them.
