Singapore has long been an ally of the United States, supporting political and economic stability in a region which is increasingly important to U.S. interests.  As a leading member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum, which is housed in Singapore, Singapore also plays an active role in Southeast Asian regional organizations.  What are the important trends in Southeast Asia?  How do regional bodies such as ASEAN and APEC shape the political and economic order?  How has the United States fit into this order and the past, and what role will it play in the future?  To address these issues and more, please join Chan Heng Chee, Singaporean Ambassador to the United States.
