AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

ASEAN & regional policy: ASEAN leaders are set to sign the Digital Economy Framework Agreement at a summit in the Philippines in November, covering data governance, AI cooperation, digital identity, cybersecurity and digital trade—seen as a “game-changer” as global e-trade rules shift. Haze & health: Indonesia’s Borneo wildfires are driving hazardous smoke across borders, with the Philippines warning haze may affect parts until Sept 3 and Malaysia reporting hazardous air quality in Sarawak; schools and outdoor activities have been disrupted, with officials urging masks and limiting exposure. Brunei ties & courts: Brunei and the Philippines’ top courts have agreed to boost judicial training and strengthened cooperation via an MOU. Travel update: Thailand will cut visa-free tourism stays for many nationalities from 60 to 30 days from Sept 15, including Brunei passport holders. Trade & business: UK businesses gained full access to CPTPP after Canada’s final ratification, with Brunei included among member markets; separately, Seafood Expo Asia opened in Singapore with Brunei’s Department of Fisheries among new country participants. Local spotlight: A Brunei-linked report highlights the Limbang border “go-between” situation for cross-border travel within the BIMP-Eaga region.
