ASEM 9 SUMMIT
05 - 06 November 2012
Vientiane, Laos
The 9th Asia-Europe Meeting Summit of Heads of State and Government (ASEM9) will be hosted by Laos (5-6 November 2012). The theme for the Summit will be, Friends for Peace, Partners for Prosperity.
This year marks the 16th anniversary of the establishment of Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM). Since its inception in 1996, the ASEM process has remarkably evolved. It has expanded its membership from 26 partners in 1996 to present 48 partners from Asia and Europe, thus reflecting the deepening cooperation between the two regions. The ASEM process has made significant contribute to the promotion of mutual understanding, peace, stability, development and prosperity of Asia and Europe.
Throughout these years, ASEM has gone through the period of complex and rapid changes. It has faced with many challenges such as climate change, economic and financial crisis, high prices of food and energy, natural disasters, outbreak of infectious diseases and others, which have negatively impacted the socio-economic development of the two regions. Despite the challenges, today ASEM remains relevant and continues to be an important forum for ASEM partners to share their thoughts, exchange views and explore ways and means in promoting better understanding and enhancing cooperation between Asia and Europe and in addressing the various challenges.
The 9th Asia-Europe Meeting Summit or ASEM 9 will be held on 5 - 6 November 2012 in Vientiane, Lao PDR under the theme: "Friends for Peace, Partners for Prosperity". It will provide yet another important occasion for Leaders of Asia and Europe to discuss regional and international issues of common interest and concern, including, among others, food and energy security, sustainable development, financial and economic crisis, climate change, natural disaster response, socio-cultural cooperation and future direction of ASEM.
Besides the hosting of ASEM 9, the Lao PDR will also organise other important ASEM sideline events, namely Asia-Europe People’s Forum (AEPF), Asia-Europe Parliamentary Partnership Meeting (ASEP) and for leaders of Asia-Europe Business Forum (AEBF) in Vientiane in 2012. The Government and multi-ethnic people of the Lao PDR feel honored to be entrusted to host the ASEM 9 and related events and are looking forward to warmly welcoming all ASEM Leaders and delegates to Vientiane in 2012.

The Asia–Europe Meeting (ASEM) was officially established in 1996 at the first summit in Bangkok. ASEM is an interregional forum which consists of the European Commission, the twenty-seven members of the European Union (EU), the thirteen members of the ASEAN Plus Three regional grouping,[1], as of 2008, India, Mongolia, and Pakistan, and as of 2010, Australia, Russiaand New Zealand[2] as of 2012 Norway, Switzerland and Bangladesh.
Members of the ASEM (2010)
The main components of the ASEM process, which has so far been loosely organized, include:
political dialogue
security and the economy
education and culture
or the so-called three pillars.
In general, the process is considered by the parties involved to be a way of deepening the relations between Asia and Europe at all levels, which is deemed necessary to achieve a more balanced political and economic world order. The process is enhanced by the biannual meetings of heads of state, alternately in Europe and Asia, and political, economic, and cultural meetings and events at all kinds of other levels.
