ASEAN Quote by SBYudhoyono
““Di kawasan Asia Tenggara dan Asia Pasifik, kita masih dihadapkan pada tantangan tradisional, seperti potensi konflik akibat sengketa perbatasan dan klaim wilayah. Kita juga masih menghadapi berbagai tantangan non-tradisional yang membawa dampak langsung terhadap keamanan dan kesejahteraan rakyat di kawasan. Kita menyadari, berbagai persoalan itu dapat memicu ketegangan baru, dan berdampak bagi upaya bersama untuk mewujudkan Komunitas ASEAN dan kerja sama di kawasan Asia Pasifik.””
