Bali Concord II- Enhancement of defence cooperation
  • Explores areas of defence ASEAN member states can cooperate in, such as training for peacekeeping operations and border patrols
  • Requires establishment of a formal/informal forum among defence officials, even ministers

Defence cooperation in BCII does not suggest any form of defence pact/military alliance.

Because of different defence outlooks, capabilities & circumstances, operational activities would most probably not involve all ASEAN member states.
