    The fierce competition in strategies from big countries, strong changes in theregion, and the increasing protectionism are also challenges to ASEAN’sprinciple and purpose to support free trade, he noted.

    All member countries should be aware of the value of community strength tothem, to the region and the world, thus contributing to harmonizing benefit oftheir own countries with the interest of the ASEAN Community and the region,Dung stressed.

    ASEAN should be determined to realise its set targets and commitments, whilebalancing its relations with partners, especially big countries, he added.
