The inaugural meeting took place from 1 to 3 September 1999. Both Ministers were pleased to note that the meeting was a fruitful one. It will help to bring the two regions closer together through further understanding and cooperation. Chile will be hosting the East Asia-Latin America Forum Ministerial Meeting in 2001. Singapore and Chile as co-ordinators will work closely to follow-up on EALAF."
