This bulletin discusses some of the central concerns that Cambodia must address during its upcoming role as chair of ASEAN. The author writes that Cambodia needs to prepare well in advance for worst case scenarios and be ready and willing to address problems with diplomacy and leadership. Cambodia needs to redouble its efforts in coordinating and chairing the upcoming summits and meetings in order to demonstrate to the region and beyond that it is capable of acting as chair in a responsible and constructive manner as it claimed earlier in 2012.
