Both leaders agreed to deepen collaboration in areas such as agri-trade, renewable energy, science and technology, and human capital development. Reaffirming that both countries depend on open trade and a rules-based international order, they emphasised the importance of maximising their respective ASEAN and APEC Chairmanships next year to advance regional cooperation and integration.
