Prime Minister, Xanana Gusmao brings positive result from his official visit to Singapore and the Philippines because these two Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) members affirm their position to support to Timor-Leste’s application to join ASEAN.
“They (Singapore and the Philippines, red) support Timor-Leste’s application to join ASEAN, but we also recognize that Timor-Leste needs more preparations, however, they call on Timor-Leste to participate in the ASEAN summit, then, slowly we will join ASEAN,” Xanana said during a press conference at International Airport of Nicolau Lobato on Monday 10.
Xanana said through the meeting, ASEAN member states wanted Timor-Leste should join ASEAN, but the important thing was Timor-Leste should improve its human resources.
