Since the inception of the 1st ASEM Summit in Bangkok in 1996 with 25 partners, ASEM has served as an informal process of dialogue and cooperation bringing now 53 members from Asia and Europe. This inter-regional group is vital to the global politics and the world economy. ASEM members are accounted for around half of the world’s GDP, more than 60% of the world’s population and around 60% of global trade. ASEM is the only dialogue where Asian and European Leaders meet biannually to address issues within 3 core pillars of ASEM, namely political, economic and cultural pillars, with the objective of strengthening the relationship and enhancing cooperation between the two regions.
