00:00The same spirit must now guide us as we confront the challenges within and beyond the region, uncertainties of the present and of the future.
00:18Excellency Malaysia's ASEAN theme of inclusivity and sustainability is not merely a slogan, it is a strategic moral proposition.
00:30It speaks not only to our aspirations but to our obligations.
00:35It is anchored in the conviction that ASEAN's future must be built on the twin pillars of equitable growth and enduring resilience.
00:47Inclusivity calls on us to narrow development divides, empower our people and ensure that no member state, community or segment of society is left behind.
01:00This means advancing economic integration in a way that is truly people-centered, where prosperity is shared and growth is broad-based.
01:10Meanwhile, sustainability reminds us of our duty to future generations.
01:17As we grapple with climate change, food and water insecurity and technological disruption, we must be visionary.
01:26The values of inclusivity and sustainability must be embedded in the fabric of ASEAN's future with ASEAN's centrality and unity as a goal.
01:39Excellencies, tomorrow our leaders are scheduled to adopt the ASEAN 2045, our shared future, which lays the foundation for ASEAN for the next two decades.
01:51This is not merely a ceremonial matter, it is the burden of our collective endeavor for the future, reaffirming our shared commitment to a secure peaceful, resilient and people-centered ASEAN.
02:06The ASEAN Community Vision 2025 presents a bold ambition to make ASEAN a resilient, innovative and people-oriented community, deeply integrated economically, socially cohesive and globally respected.
02:24The 46th ASEAN summit allows us to create these values at the heart of ASEAN trajectory as we look towards the re-realization of ASEAN Community Vision 2045.
02:39The success of this vision begins with us laying the groundwork today. The foundations we build now will determine whether that vision becomes a reality or remains as an aspiration.
02:54Let us face the future, not as individual nations charting separate paths, but as one community anchored in mutual respect and shared goals.
03:04Our strengths have always come from our diversity and the conviction that differences are not divisions.
03:11Rather, they are building blocks from bridges to greater understanding and appreciation on how our individual and collective characteristics contribute to enrich ASEAN and the ASEAN Community.
03:25The world is watching, but more importantly, our people are depending on us.
03:31Let us move forward with clarity, unity and purpose. The future of ASEAN depends on the choices we make today.
03:40Malaysia will spare no effort to ensure that our championship advances this shared vision.
03:46I look forward to fruitful and meaningful liberation again. Thank you.
03:55We now have to the end of our open session. I invite the members of the media to leave the room.
04:02And so we may proceed with the closed session.
