Through the application of advanced technology it hopes to improve the quality and effectiveness of communications and strengthen Vietnam’s connection to the international community, said Ms. Xuan.

The 2‑day conference attracted nine ASEAN member states, Timor-Leste as an observer, and the three partners of Japan, the Republic of Korea, and China, under the theme “Media: From Information to Knowledge for a Resilient and Responsive ASEAN”.

Madam Xuan said in a changing world, it is essential to collaborate in promoting timely access to accurate information based on digital capabilities to turn information into knowledge to support businesses, improve people’s livelihoods, and minimize the impact of negative information at all national, regional and international levels, including in ASEAN.

AMRI-16 is an important forum for member states and other countries to engage in dialogue, exchange and determine priorities and directions for future cooperation and jointly implement the United Nations’ millennium goals and the ASEAN Community’s priorities.
