HC Deb 22 January 1968 vol 757 cc6-7W
48. Mr. Marquand

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what plans he has for co-operation with the Association of South-East Asian Nations.

Mr. William Rodgers

The Association of South-East Asian Nations came into being as a result of initiatives by Asian statesmen; and it is for them to decide how they wish it to develop. But we welcome this development towards genuine co-operation for peaceful purposes in South-East Asia.
