"It seems that the event is experiencing scheduling turbulence, with more than one of the key ASEAN members unable to move or cancel pre-existing commitments on dates that the USA has proposed," said Kurt Tong, a partner at The Asia Group. "It is challenging given the long ten-member ASEAN roster and that organization's strong desire for inclusiveness."
ASEAN means business: Brunei (.BN, BND), Cambodia (.KH, KHR), Indonesia (.ID, IDR), Lao DPR (.LA, LAK), Malaysia (.MY, MYR), Myanmar (.MM, MMK), Philippines (.PH, PHP), Singapore (.SG, SGD), Thailand (.TH, THB), Viet Nam (.VN, VND)
