On 23 July 2026, H.E. Mr. Sihasak Phuangketkeow, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, attended the 33rd ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF), held on the sidelines of the 59th ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting and Related Meetings in Manila, the Philippines.

The meeting exchanged views on regional and international security developments, particularly maritime security, and discussed cooperation in addressing emerging challenges, including transnational crime, climate change, and natural disasters. Thailand underscored the role of the ARF as a platform that reinforces ASEAN centrality and promotes dialogue, confidence-building, and practical cooperation in addressing regional security challenges. Thailand also highlighted examples of its implementation of these principles, including efforts to address the Thailand - Cambodia situation and to advance the calibrated re-engagement approach with regard to the situation in Myanmar, as well as to enhance cooperation within the ASEAN framework to combat online scams.

The meeting also adopted the ARF Manila Plan of Action (2026 - 2036) and endorsed the ARF Track 1 Activities for the Inter-Sessional Year 2026 - 2027, including the ARF Workshop on Enhancing Cooperation to Combat Online Scams, an initiative proposed by Thailand.
