Singapore’s Involvement as an ASEAN Member State

Arts and culture have the power to bridge diverse communities and deepen friendships among nations and remain an important way to strengthen regional cooperation among ASEAN Member States. In 2018, the National Arts Council (NAC) organised One Voice: The Best of ASEAN Performing Arts concert in support of Singapore’s ASEAN Chairmanship year. Following which, Singapore chaired the 55th ASEAN Committee of Culture and Information (ASEAN-COCI) meeting in 2020 where we celebrated this spirit of unity in diversity, and encouraged appreciation and respect for diverse ASEAN cultures.
