Speakers from all ASEAN member states and India shared their views at the two-day event that centered on the theme of 'Post-Covid-19 Recovery: Regional Cooperation Agenda for ASEAN-India Partnership'.
"The speakers deliberated on sustainable recovery, cooperation in health, SDGs, MSMEs, connectivity and supply chain resilience among many other issues.
