Theme: ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific: Enhancing Connectivity
Welcome letter
Model ASEAN Summit in Da Nang 2019
Distinguished delegates,
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to express my sincere thanks to your interests in Model ASEAN Summit in Da Nang 2019 (MAS 2019) and wishes of good health, luck and success to all of you.
“The Model ASEAN Summit in Da Nang 2019” is a simulation of how decision-making processes take place in ASEAN framework and how each step of administrative structure operates during the ASEAN meetings. We choose “ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific: Enhancing Connectivity” as the main theme of this model summit with high expectations for offering the youths in Da Nang comprehensive and objective perception about the impacts of the Free and Open Indo-Pacific Strategy on the Southeast Asia region.
This model summit is held for the purpose of establishing auspicious conditions for youths to discover and forge essential soft skills such as debating, negotiating, critical thinking; enhance the overall understanding about the ASEAN Community and its role in the new context. It is my strong belief that this is not only an opportunity for the youths to be active citizens but also a significant activity towards enhancing community connectivity.
It is our great honor to organize MAS 2019, where I hope we all can have active and efficient discussions so as to obtain better understandings of ASEAN and its concerns.
I look forward to meeting you all at MAS 2019 in Da Nang this October!
Yours faithfully,
Head of Organizers
