What are Brunei’s priorities for ASEAN health?
For the next two years, Brunei will assume the chairmanship within ASEAN for the Senior Officials Meeting on Health Development and the ASEAN Health Ministers Meeting. With the official handing over of the chairmanship from Vietnam to Brunei at the 11th Senior Officials Meeting on Health Development and Other Related Meetings held from August 9 to 11, the tiny oil-rich sultanate will lead regional deliberations on health issues. With the handover complete, officials have begun to outline what they see as the country’s priorities for the next two years.
