AGP Executive Report

Last update: 35 minutes ago

ASEAN Summit: Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah joined leaders in Manila, where discussions are focusing on regional security, energy and food supplies, and economic cooperation. Sultan and Malaysia’s Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also met, reaffirming close ties. Regional Priorities: ASEAN ministers signed a digital economy agreement aimed at boosting cross-border trade, while progress on a South China Sea code of conduct remains incomplete. Leaders are also seeking practical ways to engage Myanmar, with a decision on its return to high-level meetings deferred. Football: Brunei’s U17 side suffered a 10-0 defeat to Oman in Asian qualifying. The senior team will face Oman in the King’s Cup third-place playoff after losing 6-0 to Thailand.
