asean is an increasingly _ through what is at stake?easingly important - is an increasingly important partner for australia. it exhibits strong growth, so it is going to be a fundamentally important to growing the economy as well in australia. there are strong manufacturing centres and it's an important geopolitical entity in the region. it shies away from geopolitical debates but it is essential to australia's external security, especially indonesia and the approaches to australia. here i think there is a bit of a difference between what canberra sees and what some of the other couples in asean see as the priority. that may be reflected in some differences that will be discussed next week. what can we meet _ discussed next week. what can we expect from _ discussed next week. what can we expect from the _ discussed next week. what can we expect from the summit - we expect from the summit in terms of deals done?- we expect from the summit in terms of deals done? there are deals being _ terms of deals done? there are deals being done _ te

eurasian continent - this is the eurasian economic union, this is the shanghai organization cooperation, asean, chinese belt and road project, ibid. the cooperation council of arab states is located in eurasia, working relations coordinate their agendas, ensuring that complementarity helps to avoid, avoid unnecessary actions, unnecessary duplication, this is exactly the kind of interaction process that president putin had in mind when he formulated his vision of the formation: all this too thrown away, everything useful that was produced then was thrown into the trash by the west, they again declared that they would live only according to your own rules. where the sunnis predominated, the majority of the officers of this army, finding themselves without work, formed the backbone of the islamic on the brink, in syria the americans are creating a quasi-state of the kurds, stealing the oil and food that is produced in the territories they occupied, which is why it is multipolar. should still now rely on integration structures, i mentioned eurasia, i’ll briefly say that we have a solution to our p

it's emblematic of the way asean works. binary outcomes tend to be avoided. there is a culture of consensus and it is very multipolar. another example is brunei. brunei has been operating under a state of emergency for 62 years now but nobody really talks about that. that is pretty much how asean tends to function. annabelle: let's check on markets. about half an hour into the session for japan and korea and equities, the headline we are tracking today is the nikkei 225 reaching to keep 40,000 level for the first time ever. very very strong momentum in japanese equities. it's opening the door to further gains in the historic rally. when you look at rsi, now around 80 level. that's also a signal we are looking pretty overbought. where markets reached a record that tended to be stuck in a range and that is something else we can be tracking as >> just dropped here. this is the february 1. coming in at 50.7. 51.2. seeing it dropping into 50.7 in the latest reading. south korea was shut for a public holiday on friday. on balance, we did see a slight deterioration.

currently it lags is asean peers, both in terms of manufacturing productivity as well as labour productivityo enter the 8% growth trajectory, you really have to show a commitment towards lifting productivity growth through structural reforms and a continued push on infrastructure spending. since the votes, mr prabowo has promised to do at least some of that. he's hinted he favours privatising some of indonesia's state—owned enterprises, and he has vowed to maintain fiscal discipline while widening the country's tax base. however some of his spending plans have triggered warnings from rating agencies. for example, his idea of free lunches for 18 million students. that would cost the country about 2% of its gdp. and that's one of the reasons cited as a disconnect between his campaign promises and his economic goals. social media platform, reddit, has priced its initial public offering at the top of its targeted range ahead of making its stock market debut. the price is set at $34 a share, giving reddit a valuation of around $6.4 billion. this offering comes as the tech sector is seeing a big s

participate in military construction in this region, that is , in fact, the americans are splitting aseanew most important countries are pulling them towards yourself if. it doesn’t seem to match anymore, why? yes , because it does not correspond to their interests, because modi clearly stands for traditional indian politics, when, so to speak, indian interests come first, everything else is unimportant, but they also strive to drag india into this matter, that is there is a very active process going on, while at the same time they are putting pressure on china; yesterday another philippine caravan moved towards this unfortunate ship from yaromadra. just encountered the chinese and the filipinos turned back, the chinese, as always, gave a 10,000 warning, they said that this was impossible, that this was bad, to which the filipinos said that they were going to set off on a new mission in the near future, that is, you understand why this is being done, this is being done for in order to constantly maintain a certain pressure on china, this is quite obvious; moreover, now in april large mane

two top teams, not iran, the top team in asean you make it international, if they say we sell internationally, they will line up to buy 2 teams. why did we bring this to this day so that some of us come, they don't know the work, not the experts ? some of my friends in the government are saying that we want to sell independence and respect for the police, but we don't see what that means. it means that if you say that we are selling, let's give it to you, it is in our hands he shows this with the document, and by god, dividing these two teams into two divisions. how difficult is private work, then we made the expenses ourselves, mr. asadian , you know, for years, i and people like me have been saying that we , independents, should give the police to us, not to me , to people who are independent, we don't want a koran. extend it next year, not now. because we gave the job now, a series of people who have the responsibility to fix the team did not pay for their work and their ownership. in order to find out the price of it, it has disappeared , we took money from the people and took the expense

it has a unique history and culture, it can use the position of the tourism capital of asean member countries to bring many tourists to iran. an ancient city is responsible all criteria in the organization. it will be declared as tourism capital along with other cities of eca member countries. tourism is one of the priority areas of selective cooperation in the economic cooperation organization. his countries are paying attention to regional cooperation in the field of tourism, and i am happy that today in this city. we believe that it has a lot of potential for tourism. iran is a beautiful country. it is my first visit to yazd. this city has a high capacity for indonesian tourists and investors to travel to iran. yazd is the sister city of bukhara in uzbekistan, so it is suitable for tourists and capital. it is attractive for uzbek investors to travel to iran . we are about iran. the investment is done by the member countries of the asian dialogue forum with the aim of attracting one of the asian dialogue forum's tourism tour operators, meetings where the private sectors of the two countries

this competition was held with the participation of singers from south east asian countries and aseanand hosted by indonesia. seyyed mustafa hosseini will return to the country tomorrow morning. the new group of the 92nd navy of the army returned to the country after 86 days of mission and 18,000 kilometers of sailing coming back. the all-iranian unbreakable sahand group was sent to the gulf of aden in order to ensure the security of the iranian shipping lines in the red sea against pirates, and docked at the 1st imamat district wharf in band abbas. jamaran islamic iran is located in the gulf of aden and the red sea. these units were put into operation in five provinces and were handed over to the applicants based on the memorandum of understanding of the executive headquarters of farman imam with the ministry of roads and urban development in the form of the national housing development plan. by the end of 1402, we reached a figure of about 10 thousand units god willing, we will arrive and by the end of 1003, 4003 , we will complete 35 thousand units and hand them over to our dear pe

nations asean have called for immediate and durable humanitarian sease fire in the bessieg territory as the holy month of ramadan approaches, and apartied israel's war cabinet minister benny gance in london after spending two days meeting power brokers in washington. is this the beginning of the end for benjamin netanyahu? in only five months, the us europe backed israeli genocidal campaign in gaza, has killed more than 30,00 palestinians and wounded over 70%. 2 thous others. with us on this edition of the program, british palestinian student and activist tarek othman and rick sterling, veteran journalist working with the la progressive, anti-war, and almaya deen, to name just few. rick joins us via skype from the bay area in california, usa. thank you both for being here. i'll start with you rick, biden gave the impression a cease fire was as good as done and dusted. yet here we are, what do you think are the stumbling blocks to a cessation of violence at the moment? well, the main stumbling block is is the united states refusal to demand that israel uh stop its genocide, there have

other teams on the level of the asian continent, definitely japan, iran, qatar and some other teams of asean powers and themselves. america, canada and 3 countries are preparing for the 2026 world cup because it is going to be held. well, definitely, our path to the world cup is easy with the current situation of our team and we need to continue the rejuvenation that mr. qalnawai has done. of course, arsha shakuri didn't go to this game, the young arsha shakuri could have been present in this match and there was a discussion. it was not issued. they say that his visa has been issued. at one point, i bet that according to the opinion of the technical staff, the number of players that should have been included in that game would not have been mr. qalehnoei, we don't have mr. torabi rome, we don't have mr. sardar azmoun either , but our team has so many good players on the bench and the ground conditions are ideal and very good for the students of amir ghalai. our game will be held at the ashgabat stadium from 18:00 . turkmenistan has a special condition . i will get the acceptance later the ma

i mean, the the malaysias and the singapores, the asean countries, etc. where are they? a spaceship on the far side of the moon. and they're not giving anything. could it be — and it's maybe part of the mood you refer to around the world that there is a much greater focus on keeping displaced peoples out of their countries, these migrants who are fleeing, many of them literally for their lives, a lot of governments around the world simply want to build walls, build barriers, ensure these people don't come to their territory. they also give some humanitarian assistance. yes. and for some of them, this motive seems to be let's try to keep them where they are. but we're overstretched and underfunded like never before because their needs have gone so up. there could be another reason why it seems the international community is less convinced of the argument to keep on giving to assistance and aid operations like yours. it could be because many people have decided it doesn't really work. ijust interviewed a former prime minister of haiti. i pointed out to him that, in the 21s

annabelle: for these asean countries is there and assumption that australia has its own foreign policyat the white house wants? ben: there has been a real shift since the election of a centerleft neighbor government -- labour government in may 2022. until then leaders saw australia as a follower of u.s. foreign policy. but since the election of prime minister albanese there's been more of a shift of positioning australia as a middle power alongside other middle powers in southeast asia. it's a degree of independent foreign policy more effective in blaring -- bringing the block together to advocate issues that are important like open ceilings -- open sea lanes and peace in the region, things along those lines. there has been a shift to subtlety in diplomacy in recent years. haidi: what about the shift we have seen from the albanese government and prime minister benny wong in terms of how we engage with china? there's a lot of focus on the economic vulnerabilities and also in tandem with that is a lot more associate -- assertiveness we have seen. ben: absolutely. we are seeing china go t
