  • ASEAN, the region’s strategic convenor

    ASIA, 2017/06/27 Outside observers who seek to find fault with ASEAN will quickly find what they are looking for. ASEAN makes it too easy — citing the number of meetings held as a metric of success, for example. Additional critical criticism comes from human rights advocates who point to the body’s feeble responses to human rights violations in member states. Member governments’ failure to follow through on economic integration commitments — creating scepticism about the next of an ASEAN Economic Community — is an extra problem. From presently on criticism of ASEAN often overlooks the mission it set at its creation in 1967. ASEAN has succeeded in securing a prosperous peace, preventing interstate conflict and in providing a forum for the region’s engagement with great powers and the wider world — the region’s ‘strategic convenor’, as Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull put it. One may even say that ASEAN’s organisational weaknesses are the secret to its success. ASEAN works so well because it doesn’t.
