The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) was established in 1967 by the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand with the aim of accelerating economic growth, social progress, and cultural cooperation in the region.

The founding countries were later joined by Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Timor-Leste.
