East Timor eyes ARF membership
(Xinhua)

While East Timor is still in the early stage of the process to become a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), the world's youngest nation has a very good chance to participate in Asia's top security forum sometime this year.

East Timorese Foreign Minister Jose Ramos Horta, who is in Jakarta as a guest to attend the 37th ASEAN Minister Meeting (AMM) and the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF), said on Tuesday that Dili had received support from the United States, Japan, China, Malaysia and Thailand to enter the ARF.

"We hope that this year, East Timor will be admitted into the ARF," Ramos was quoted Wednesday by The Jakarta Post as saying.

In fact, East Timor should have been admitted into ARF last year at the Phnom Penh meetings along with Pakistan.

But as India, an ARF member, did not agree on the inclusion of Pakistan at that time, the whole discussion of new members was put on hold and East Timor had to wait for another year.

Indonesia, the current chair of ASEAN and the host of ASEAN and ARF ministerial meetings, stated that the admission of East Timor into ARF had not been put on the agenda.

Marty A. Natalegawa, spokesman at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, would only acknowledge that East Timor had applied for ARF membership.

The ARF, formed a decade ago with the mandate to cooperate on regional peace and stability among ASEAN members, also comprises Australia, Canada, China, the European Union, India, Japan, Mongolia, New Zealand, South Korea, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Papua New Guinea, Russia and the United States.

Under the ARF rules, a consensus must be achieved among forum members for the admission of a new member.
