1. On 27 February 2013, the Thai
Cabinet approved Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ proposal for Thailand to
host the 2nd Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) Summit and related meetings
during 8-12 March 2015. The Leaders’ Summit will take place on 12 March
2015.
2. The Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) was inaugurated in 2002 to be Asia’s first continent-wide policy forum. Currently, the ACD has 32 Member Countries from every sub-region of Asia.Each ACD member has its vast and diverse natural and human resources, rich and historical heritage and economic and social potential. Its aim is to connect Asian countries for the benefit of Asia and build an Asian community without duplicating other organizations. It is a forum for Asian countries to exchange views on foreign policy and to promote better understanding and cooperation, relying on their diverse strengths and potentials. The ACD’s key areas of cooperation include energy, culture, tourism, agriculture, finance, transport, and the environment.
3. As ACD Coordinator, Thailand plays a leading role since its inception. The country is also the Prime Mover of tourism and financial cooperation, and a Co-Prime Mover with other member countries in human resources development. From Thailand’s perspective, the ACD is a mechanism that can promote prosperity in Asia and play major roles worldwide, as well as making regional cooperation more efficient, effective, and productive.
4. Thailand hopes to draw on political support of other member countries in East Asia, South Asia and the Middle Easton issues of common interest both in the ACD framework and other international forums. Furthermore, Thailand, as a major food producing country, are seeking partners in the ACD and beyond to help produce to export food and agricultural products including Halal food, to the world.
5. At the 1st ACD Summit in Kuwait in October 2012, the Leaders endorsed Thailand’s proposal to host the 2nd ACD Summit in 2015, and expressed appreciation on Thailand’s role as ACD Coordinator. Thailand will also put forward key issues in the ACD including connectivity, food security and energy security.
6. Hosting the 2nd ACD Summit in 2015 is a timely opportunity. Thailand can play a constructive role in the international forum, as well as promoting its image and leading role in creating dynamism in international cooperation, especially in 2015 when the ASEAN Community is realized. The Summit will also help promote Thailand’s role in the international community and will support Thailand’s campaign for a non-permanent seat of the United Nations Security Council for the term 2017-2018.
