HDUCIM Background
Tentative Programme
The ASEAN Regional Forum was established in 1994. The objectives of the ASEAN Regional Forum are outlined in the First ARF Chairman's Statement (1994), namely:
- To foster constructive dialogue and consultation on political and security issues of common interest and concern; and
- To make significant contributions to efforts towards confidence-building and preventive diplomacy in the Asia-Pacific region.
The 27th ASEAN Ministerial Meeting (1994) stated that "The ARF could become an effective consultative Asia-Pacific Forum for promoting open dialogue on political and security cooperation in the region. In this context, ASEAN should work with its ARF partners to bring about a more predictable and constructive pattern of relations in the Asia Pacific."
