The ASEAN is a community that puts the people at the center of its priorities. It aims to provide the citizens with a high quality of life, and access to social services that promote welfare.
As we move on, the ASEAN aspires to promote and protect the rights of migrant workers, since migrant workers contribute greatly to the region's economy. The ASEAN addresses their needs for social protection, access to justice, humane and fair treatment, just collection of placement fees, and access to health services. This will be a great milestone since it is the first specific recognition that outlines the obligations of sending and receiving countries to migrant workers in the region.
The ASEAN aspires to make the lives of every citizen comfortable, progressive, and worth living-that includes the members of vulnerable groups. Considering that all member-states have ratified the Convention on Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women, the ASEAN reassures its commitment to achieve gender-equality and empowerment of women in all sectors of society. Furthermore, the ASEAN advocates for the protection of rights of children against any form of violence and abuse.
To further uphold and strengthen their cultural identity, the ASEAN hopes to increase appreciation for cultural heritage by recognizing its importance, and affirming support to national treasures.
As part of providing quality service, the ASEAN aims to ease access to improve healthcare by promoting healthy diets and proper nutrition. The ASEAN seeks to increase investments on nutrition, especially on the first 1,000 days of life.
The ASEAN recognizes and promotes the role of civil service as a catalyst towards moving onto a progressive community. The ASEAN encourages the participation of citizens towards community-building.
The ASEAN envisions a community where each and every one is treated equally, a society where opportunities are only steps away, a region that strives to give the people not only what they need, but what they deserve.
