ASEAN Marketing Summit 2020 highlights that ASEAN countries are encouraged to be open to each other in working together because this can be a strength in both economic, social and political aspects
Founder & Chairman of MarkPlus, Inc. and Tri-Founder Philip Kotler Center for ASEAN Marketing Hermawan Kartajaya, currently ASEAN has a strategic position in the eyes of the global community, especially after the election of the new president of the United States. Export and import policies will undergo new adjustments. This is what ASEAN countries must pursue.
The spirit of ASEAN must be maintained and ASEAN countries need to support each other because recently western countries are focusing on eyeing ASEAN. Moreover, ASEAN is considered to have a harmony with minimal tension, conflict and war.
"ASEAN is unique, it is neither a western region, China nor an Islamic country but it has a combination of the three. We must maintain this harmony so that there is no clash of civilization," he said on Monday (9/11/2020) virtually.
ASEAN is considered to be a mecca for countries in other regions as long as this harmony and collaboration are continued. Fellow ASEAN countries are encouraged to be open to each other in working together because this can be a strength in both economic, social and political aspects.
"You could say that ASEAN is a region with a successful economy because of this aspect of harmony. That’s why we must prepare to increase exports towards the reform year for ASEAN in 2025," he added. Each ASEAN country has its own uniqueness and potential that can make all countries in it considered solid and glimpsed by global countries.
For information, the ASEAN Marketing Summit itself is the sixth event after the first in 2015, presenting world marketing teacher Philip Kotler. Since then, issues and insights relevant to business have been discussed annually at AMS by presenting many speakers from various countries, from Indonesia, ASEAN countries, Korea, to the United States.
