LAOS 2004
Laos joined The Association of Southeast Asian
Nations (ASEAN) on 23rd July 1997. She will host their 10th
ASEAN summit in Nakorn Luang Vientiane, the capital city of Laos. The
increasingly commercial elite ASEAN will get together to talk about issues
that are important to them. There should be more of these big
important events held in Laos since Laos has its relaxed atmosphere and
environment for important issues to decide upon.
The
Association of Southeast Asian Nations or ASEAN was established on 8
August 1967 in Bangkok by the five original Member Countries, namely,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. Brunei
Darussalam joined on
8 January 1984,
Vietnam on
28 July 1995,
Laos and
Myanmar on
23 July 1997, and
Cambodia on
30 April 1999.
The first Meeting of the 38th ASEAN Standing Committee in
Laos will include member countries:
Brunei Darussalam,
Cambodia,
Indonesia,
Laos,
Malaysia,
Myanmar,
Philippines,
