00:00
Now the ties between these three regions, GCC, ASEAN, and China, are deep and enduring.
00:14
From the ancient Silk Road to the vibrant maritime networks of South Asia to modern trade corridors,
00:22
our peoples have long connected through commerce, culture, and sharing of ideas.
00:30
We have Mekah and Madinah, a center for millions of pilgrims.
00:35
We have centers around Oman, which became the major trading route through the region,
00:42
and of course, the other countries in the GCC.
00:46
And historically here, centers such as Malacca exemplified this tradition,
00:54
serving vital crossroads linking East and West.
01:00
Today, ASEAN carries forward that legacy on a broader scale,
01:06
emerging as a dynamic crossroads of global commerce innovation and opportunity.
01:14
China, meanwhile, remains ASEAN's largest trading partner with $700 billion in trade and $17.3 billion in FDI.
01:27
This indicates the immense existing linkages as well as substantial untapped potential.
01:38
ASEAN, GCC, and China collectively represent a combined GDP of $24.87 trillion and growing exponentially,
01:52
with a population of approximately $2.15 billion and growing slowly.
02:00
The collective scale offers vast opportunities to synergize our markets, deepen innovation, and promote cross-regional investment.
02:13
I am confident that ASEAN, GCC, and China can draw upon our unique attributes and shape a future that is more connected,
02:23
more resilient, more resilient, and more prosperous for generations to come.
02:30
ASEAN has long demonstrated that regionalism, anchored in consensus, respect, and openness, can succeed.
02:40
We have thrived in our long-standing partnership with the GCC and China.
02:46
Today, we have the opportunity to enhance these ties.
02:52
With this period of optimism and shared purpose, I look forward to a constructive and fruitful discussion today.
