PGMA leaves for Singapore Sunday to attend 13th ASEAN Summit meeting
President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo leaves for Singapore Sunday afternoon (Nov. 18) to attend the annual meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) heads of state and government, the highest decision-making organ of the 10-member ASEAN.

High on agenda of the 13th ASEAN Summit and related meetings in Singapore on Nov. 18 to 22 is the signing by ASEAN leaders of the ASEAN Charter which the High Level Task Force drafted during the 12th ASEAN Summit held in Cebu early this year. This historic document, which former President Fidel V. Ramos as member of the Eminent Persons Group helped formulate, is expected to serve as a legal and institutional framework as well as an inspiration for ASEAN to meet future challenges and opportunities,

During the Summit, President Arroyo is expected to bring up issues on environment, including the protection of coastal and marine ecosystems as well as renew her calls for the use of renewable and alternative sources of energy, such as biofuels, to soften the effect of high prices of oil in the world market.
