We have resolved
Working hard together

Bridging all the differences
A sense of unity

Let us move ahead
Hand in hand as one
Let the virtue stand
And face the challenges of time
Let us move ahead
Integrate as one

Prosperity, peace and harmony
The future is ours
We have the strength
We shall find the peace
Within ourselves and with the world
And as we strive
In our resolve
Sharing this one vision of a true community
Repeat the Chorus
Repeat I except the sixth line
Repeat the Chorus two times
To an ASEAN community
Prosperity, peace and harmony

Thai-Cambodia Dispute at ASEAN Talks
ANCHOR:
In Singapore, a smoldering border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia grabbed the limelight as Southeast Asian nations began meetings with Asia-Pacific powers on economic and security issues. Here's more.
STORY:
Foreign ministers from the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) met with their counterparts from China, Japan and South Korea. Talks on regional diplomacy over North Korea's nuclear program was certainly on the agenda. But ASEAN was distracted away from big-power diplomacy, due to Thailand and Cambodia's military showdown over an 11th-century temple on the border, claimed by both nations.
Ministers from Thailand and Cambodia briefed their ASEAN counterparts about the situation, after both sides sent hundreds of soldiers and heavy artillery to the border in recent days.
[Surin Pitsuwan, ASEAN Secretary General]:
"As ASEAN still insisted on the statement that the chairman put out on Sunday evening, that (we) expect the two sides were going to find amicable solutions to the issues between them and that ASEAN still stands ready to extend any support if the two sides would like ASEAN to play a role. But we did not go any further than that. I think the atmosphere was just to exchange information and to exchange views on matters of ASEAN, of ASEAN's role in various issues in the region and the issue of Cambodia and Thailand came up as one issue, nothing formal, nothing official."
The dispute is testing ASEAN's unity while it is in the midst of ratifying a charter that would turn the 41-year-old grouping into an EU-style, rules-based organization.
Cambodia has asked the United Nations Security Council for an emergency meeting, to resolve the military stand-off with Thailand.
Phnom Penh's appeal to the world body late on Monday came after bilateral talks failed to end the week-long border confrontation, which neighbors fear could turn violent.
But the ASEAN Secretary General is confident progress is being made.
[Surin Pitsuwan, ASEAN Secretary General]:
"They have made some progress. They have met on the border and both sides were still hoping that they could find a solution."
North Korea nuclear diplomacy will take centre stage when ASEAN holds talks with China, Japan, South Korea and Russia on regional security and trade issues today.

ASEAN Ministers Discuss Burma Crisis
CHAN:
ASEAN foreign ministers are meeting this week to discuss Burma's humanitarian crisis. Cyclone Nargis left thousands dead and millions in need of urgent aid.
STORY:
On May 13th Foreign Ministers of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) said they would send an emergency rapid-assessment team to Burma, but critics say the group is moving too slowly. Cyclone Nargis struck the country on May 2nd, nearly three weeks ago.
ASEAN has a long-standing policy of not interfering with the internal affairs of member states. The Burma junta has refused to open its doors to a large-scale aid operation two weeks after Cyclone Nargis hit, killing almost 80,000 people and about 56,000 still missing.
So far, two ASEAN member countries have agreed to give assistance. They are ready to give food, medicine and rescue teams, but a coordinated regional response has not happened.
To demonstrate they are handling the crisis properly, the Burmese junta took diplomats on a tour of the Burma's Irrawaddy delta last Saturday, where 2.5 million people are now struggling to survive in an area of inundated swamp the size of Austria.
Thousands of refugees are crammed into monasteries and schools. Volunteers are giving them food and water. Private donors have sent in clothes, biscuits, dried noodles and rice.
In the last 50 years, only two Asian cyclones have exceeded Nargis in terms of human cost -- a 1970 storm that killed 500,000 people in neighboring Bangladesh, and another that killed 143,000 in 1991, also in Bangladesh.
