Marcos to push for unified ASEAN response to new US tariff schedule

In his departure speech, the President said he had already initiated informal consultations with fellow leaders, including Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, to discuss how ASEAN, despite its economic diversity, can collectively respond to the issue.

"This is something that we have to discuss, and it’s something we have to respond to," he said.

"We must find a way to find consensus amongst the disparate situations that the different member states are operating under," he added.
