During his diplomatic career, Mr Severino was posted to Washington, Beijing, Huston and Kuala Lumpur; the last as Ambassador for the Republic of the Philippines. In 1998, he became the Secretary-General of the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) when the region was struggling to understand the fallout from the Asian financial crisis. During the five years when he was in office, Mr Severino was instrumental in expanding ASEAN's membership to include all ten Southeast Asian states, creating new forms of economic and financial architecture to prevent future regional crisis. It was also during this period that ASEAN expanded to include China, Japan and South Korea in what has become known as the ASEAN+3 dialogues. Mr Severino is currently working with other eminent people in Southeast Asia on the creation of an ASEAN Charter.
At his lecture, Mr Severino will discuss the challenges and prospects facing the development of ASEAN. His speech will focus on the needs of the region to further develop its cooperative economic programmes, particularly if deeper integration is to be achieved. At the 2004 Summit in Vientiane the need to expand and accelerate economic integration was a key topic of discussion by the Heads of Government. Such cooperation will not only bring benefits to Southeast Asia but will help consolidate the ASEAN Economic Community. With the inaugural East Asia Summit taking place in mid December, this talk is a unique opportunity to discuss regional policy developments with one of the foremost experts in the field.
Details of the address by Mr Severino are as follows:
