Representing 40 economies and 4 billion people, the Indo-Pacific region makes up more than one-third of all global economic activity. That's huge. And this is why our Indo-Pacific Strategy and partnership with the Canada-ASEAN Business Council is so vital. We were thrilled to co-host the Consul General of Indonesia Dyah Lestari Asmarani, Honorary Consul of Malaysia Henry leong bee Lee, Head of Vietnam Trade Office Quynh Tran and Deputy Consul General of the Philippines Kerwin Tate, to discuss how to expand trade, investment and collaboration with the Indo-Pacific region. 🌏 Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada | Export Development Canada | Exportation et développement Canada | Destination Toronto | Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario | Agence fédérale de ... | Toronto Region Board of Trade | Invest in Canada | Investir au Canada | City of Toronto | Global Affairs Canada | Affaires mondiales Canada
It was a very fruitful discussion . Thanks CABC and Toronto global for organising this event. We should reach out to the private sectors and disseminate more info on investment opportunities in ASEAN
Very important to drive investment and collaboration in these regions!
Amazing Toronto Global 👏

2moHeard some compelling arguments from Peter Hall as to why Canada needs to provide substantially more focus on SE Asia and our trading relationships with many of these countries, where we are simply not especially known in this capacity. Great work on the part of Canada-ASEAN Business Council bringing together these various groups to collaborate and obtain perspectives.
