Asean must deepen integration amid US tariffs and global uncertainty, Singapore foreign minister tells regional colleagues
SINGAPORE, July 12 — ASEAN must double down on its integration against the backdrop of geopolitical uncertainty and US tariffs, said Singapore Foreign Minister Dr Vivian Balakrishnan. He said the grouping must ensure that it truly removes every tariff and non-tariff barriers, and optimises its competitive position. 'Because that is under our control. That is a path of no regret, and I would say the urgency and the salience of doing it now, it is so much more obvious,' he told the media on the sidelines of the 58th ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting (AMM) and related meetings in Kuala Lumpur. The transcript of the doorstop interview was shared by Singapore's Foreign Ministry (MFA). Balakrishnan said the focus of the meetings in Kuala Lumpur was to increase resilience within ASEAN amid uncertainty, volatility, and economic challenges by deepening ASEAN integration and strengthening external relations with its partners. 'In a way, you can think of this as an attempt to increase resilience by increasing the stability of ASEAN's economic ties across the world,' he said. The minister noted that he was pleasantly surprised at the very high attendance at senior levels from the external partners, which is a good reflection of ASEAN's convening ability. Meanwhile, Balakrishnan noted that the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) and the Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link could serve as positive models for future bilateral or multilateral integration within ASEAN. 'From an ASEAN perspective, this (JS-SEZ) also may have relevant lessons for how to do cross-border collaboration that provides competitive advantage by pooling complementary strengths,' he said. On the Thailand-Cambodia border issue, Balakrishnan said both parties need time and secure, quiet channels to allow diplomacy to work in resolving the issue. He added that, in his personal experience, it has never been effective to resolve difficult and sensitive issues through excessive publicity or public responses via media conferences or social media. 'I am not in a position to reveal the sensitive nature of the discussions which went on here, but I would make this point. It calls for quiet, discreet, constructive, effective diplomacy. 'Based on my interactions with all of them and my fellow colleagues in ASEAN, everyone hopes for an amicable resolution,' he said, adding that it is very unfortunate that the dispute has led to loss of life. Thailand-Cambodia diplomatic relations was strained following the May 28 brief exchange of gunfire between soldiers of both countries stationed near the Preah Vihear province in northern Cambodia, killing one soldier. — Bernama

US-China tensions ease slightly after ‘positive' Rubio-Wang meeting in KL, but no breakthrough yet
KUALA LUMPUR, July 12 — US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Chinese top diplomat Wang Yi had a 'positive' meeting in Malaysia yesterday, both sides said, in an apparent bid to ease tensions between the rival powers. Rubio and Wang's first face-to-face meeting since US President Donald Trump returned to office came as Washington and Beijing are locked in disputes ranging from trade to Taiwan — and both countries vie for greater influence in the region. 'I thought it was a very constructive and positive meeting,' Rubio told reporters after the hour-long talks in capital Kuala Lumpur, but he stressed: 'It was not a negotiation.' 'I think we left it feeling as there's some areas we're gonna be able to work together on.' Rubio was also optimistic that a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping would happen. 'There's a strong desire on both sides to do it,' Rubio said, adding no date was set. Beijing said in a statement 'both sides agreed that the meeting was positive, pragmatic and constructive'. Both countries agreed to 'enhance communication and dialogue through diplomatic channels... and explore expanding cooperation areas while managing differences,' China's foreign ministry said. The sit-down between Wang and Rubio, a longtime China hawk, came as Asian foreign ministers wrapped up three days of talks at an Association of Southeast Asian Nations gathering in Kuala Lumpur. Top diplomats from Russia, the European Union, Australia, Britain and Canada also attended. 'Not sustainable ' US officials said ahead of Rubio's first trip to the region as secretary of state that Washington was 'prioritising' its commitment to East and Southeast Asia. While US tariffs overshadowed the gathering, Rubio said he was 'warmly received' by Asian partners as he sought to placate concerns over the duties. 'If you look at some of these trade deficits, they're massive. That has to be addressed,' Rubio said at the end of his whirlwind trip. 'Everybody here is a mature leader who understands that that's not sustainable.' Trump has threatened punitive tariffs ranging from 20 to 50 percent against more than 20 countries, many in Asia, if they do not strike deals with Washington by August 1. ASEAN described the tariffs as 'counterproductive' and a threat to regional growth, according to a joint statement released Friday. Long-time US ally Japan faces a 25 percent across-the-board levy, separate from similar charges already imposed on cars, steel and aluminium. South Korea faces a similar tariff. Rubio met his Japanese and South Korean counterparts on Friday, with his spokeswoman Tammy Bruce calling it an 'indispensable relationship'. Wang told Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim earlier Friday that Washington's 'unilateral imposition of high tariffs is irresponsible and unpopular,' according to a foreign ministry statement. Malaysia's Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan told a closing news conference the ASEAN meeting mentioned 'each country's concerns respectively' regarding tariffs. Tensions between the United States and China have ratcheted up since Trump took office in January, with both countries engaging in a tariff war that briefly sent duties on each other's exports sky-high. Deep mistrust Washington hit China with additional levies of 145 percent on its goods as both sides engaged in tit-for-tat escalation, while China's countermeasures on US goods reached 125 percent. Beijing and Washington agreed in May to temporarily slash the staggering tariffs — an outcome Trump dubbed a 'total reset'. However, deep mistrust remains between the two countries, with each suspecting the other of trying to weaken its influence. US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth accused China in late May of 'credibly preparing to potentially use military force to alter the balance of power' in the Asia-Pacific region. He also claimed that Beijing 'trains every day' to invade self-ruled Taiwan, which China claims as part of its territory. In response, Chinese diplomats accused the United States of using the Taiwan issue to 'contain China' and called on Washington to stop 'playing with fire'. — AFP

Tok Mat: Malaysia hails 58th Foreign Ministers' Meeting success as sign of global trust in Asean
KUALA LUMPUR, July 12 — The successful hosting of the 58th Asean Foreign Ministers' Meeting (AMM) and related meetings proves that Asean is respected and continues to enjoy the trust of major global powers. Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan said Asean is also increasingly recognised as a peaceful region with a strong and growing economy. 'In addition, many countries are lining up and waiting to sign the TAC (Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia), which is the first step for them to become partners of Asean. 'From five member countries at the beginning, we now have 10, and in October, we will have 11 with the admission of Timor-Leste. More and more countries are applying to become Asean's sectoral and dialogue partners,' he told a press conference on Friday. Elaborating further, Mohamad said that although Asean currently has a moratorium on accepting new dialogue partners, the grouping would not be overly rigid on the matter. 'There are one or two countries whose applications we must consider, as their admission as dialogue partners would add significant value to Asean. So, we will assess the need for that,' he said. Meanwhile, on the AMM, Mohamad said 21 meetings involving Asean and its external partners were held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. 'Separately, I had 15 bilateral meetings with my counterparts from Algeria, Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei, Canada, China, Japan, New Zealand, Palestine, the Philippines, Switzerland, Turkiye, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Uruguay. 'During all these meetings, we discussed strengthening bilateral relations and international issues of common concern,' he said. On the admission of Timor-Leste as Asean's 11th member, Mohamad said the Asean foreign ministers took note that work on the procedural steps are underway. 'The AMM also adopted the Guidelines to Facilitate Timor-Leste's Accession to Asean Legal Instruments under the purview of the AMM. 'The AMM encouraged Timor-Leste to take action to accede to the relevant legal instruments as soon as possible,' he added. On the applications to accede to the TAC, Mohamad said the AMM had reached a decision to approve the applications of Cyprus, Italy and Sweden. 'The ministers agreed for the Asean Secretariat to prepare assessments for the applications of Belgium, Croatia and Lithuania for the consideration of Asean Member States,' he said. He also emphasised that the ministers had reaffirmed the role of the TAC as a key instrument governing inter-state relations in Southeast Asia and in promoting regional peace and stability. On Wednesday, Algeria and Uruguay officially acceded to the TAC, marking their formal commitment to the principles of peaceful cooperation and regional harmony enshrined in the treaty. To date, 57 countries have become parties to the TAC. — Bernama
