How it started: How it's going: Paris 1924 #Paris2024

We had fruitful discussions with our ASEAN partners this month. The UK is committed to sharing expertise on tech, financial services & easing supply chain dependencies. We look forward to deepening the UK-ASEAN relationship at the ASEAN Economic Ministers-UK Consultation in Sep.

The UK is a proud dialogue partner of ASEAN because our relationship with Southeast Asia matters. Here’s why 👇🏿

Thank you to Laos for your leadership as 2024 ASEAN Chair. Great to see the UK’s thriving partnership with ASEAN develop through the visit of David Lammy and our ASEAN-UK Post Ministerial Conference. “We are stronger when we work together”. UK Mission to ASEAN Sarah Tiffin

Horrified to see the terrible scenes of violence across 🇬🇧 driven by the far right. Thinking about the Muslim community and others targeted and how frightened they must be feeling. We are known across the world as a kind and tolerant nation. These thugs don’t represent us.

My time as DG Asia-Pacific is coming to an end. We accomplished many milestones in the last five years: #IndoPacific Guidelines, #China Strategy, a turn to the #Pacific & a new focus on #India. I will stay true to my focus on the Indo-Pacific at my new posting in Tokyo!
