The Ministers discussed domestic developments in Timor-Leste and regional developments. They also exchanged views on Singapore’s priorities as ASEAN Chair in 2018, as well as the ongoing ASEAN Coordinating Council Working Group (ACCWG) process which was assessing Timor-Leste’s application for ASEAN membership.
