At the 10th international conference for ASEAN universities’ economic deans in Ho Chi Minh City on December 17, the delegates focused their discussions on uniting universities to meet challenges and requirements of globalisation for curricula, faculties’ development, research, publishing and exchange of students. 

Throughout the conference, educators are expected to build a new vision for an ASEAN community from now until 2015 and put forward training and tertiary management reforms for ASEAN members. 

Prof. Hargo Utomo from Indonesia’s Gadjah Mada University suggested that universities implement an education cooperation policy to provide higher quality educational resources for their faculties and students.
