Jakarta (voinews.id): Timor Leste is joining this year’s Asean Coodinating Council Meeting in Jakarta. Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi noted this as a historical momentum.

“The 32nd ACC is history, as we welcome Timor Leste to their participation in ASEAN meeting for the first time. I congratulated Minister Adaljiza Magno on this occasion,” Retno said to the press in Jakarta on Friday.

Retno said that one of the outcomes of the ACC meeting on Friday is the implementation guideline to grant ASEAN observer status for Timor Leste.

“We also adopted the revised Terms of Reference of the ACC's Working group on Timor Leste,” she added.

Following the landmark decision on 12 November 2022 by ASEAN to admit Timor Leste as its 11th member, the ACC also tasked a working group to work on draft roadmap for Timor Leste full membership. (VOI/Yasmin)
