European Union Inaugurates First Youth Sounding Board for EU in ASEAN
Today, Sujiro Seam, Ambassador of the European Union (EU) to ASEAN officially inaugurates 11 youth representatives from ASEAN Member States and Timor-Leste as the first ever cohort of the Youth Sounding Board for EU in ASEAN (YSBEA).
Among the 11 inaugural members is Chilanhouth Nitvongkhay, a 22-year-old Lao digital skills advocate.
Chilanhouth’s inclusion in the YSBEA highlights his commitment to addressing the digital divide in Laos and promoting digital literacy. He has been active in equipping Lao youth with digital tools to advocate for climate action and environmental sustainability. His previous efforts include training 100 participants on using digital platforms for climate advocacy, leading to new community projects aimed at raising climate change awareness.
YSBEA will provide Chilanhouth and his peers a platform to influence EU policies on key issues such as digital infrastructure and sustainable development. This is particularly relevant as Laos, under its ASEAN Chairmanship for 2024, prioritizes digital transition to boost regional connectivity and economic growth. The YSBEA’s focus on empowering youth aligns with Laos’ efforts to close the digital gap and build a more inclusive, tech-savvy future.
The establishment of YSBEA is an initiative aimed to boost young people’s engagement in EU-ASEAN cooperation to act as a youth advisory group to the EU Delegation.
“The selection of YSBEA members is an acknowledgement of their outstanding leadership qualities and impressive achievements. YSBEA will provide a consultative space and platform for young people to strengthen the European Union’s strategic partnership with ASEAN. YSBEA participation will make the actions of the European Union more relevant and effective for young people,” Seam said.
“Young people are change-makers and essential partners in ensuring the success of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement on climate change. Youth have an important role to play in deciding the future of this region: to build a better future that is greener, more inclusive, and digital. YSBEA members’ participation reflects their testament and commitment to make a difference,” he added.
YSBEA members had the opportunity to pay a courtesy call to Nararya S. Soeprapto, Deputy Secretary-General (DSG) of ASEAN for Community and Corporate Affairs of ASEAN.
DSG Nararya highlighted the pivotal role of the youth in contributing to the achievement of key development goals within the region, noting that the ASEAN youth population accounted for around 34 percent of the overall population in 2020 and is projected to peak in 2038.
He emphasized that ASEAN recognizes the crucial role of youth as key drivers of growth, as reflected in the ASEAN Leaders’ Statement on the Development of the ASEAN Community’s Post-2025 Vision. This statement, adopted by ASEAN Leaders at the 42nd ASEAN Summit in May 2023, underscores the importance of empowering youth to actively participate in shaping the future of the region.
“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of the Youth Sounding Board for EU in ASEAN (YSBEA),” said representative from Cambodia, Vichny Chanchem. “I look forward to collaborating with like-minded fellow YSBEA members to strengthen EU-ASEAN cooperation on sustainable development that upholds the rights of the people in ASEAN.”
These 11 individuals are young activists who are passionate in the fields of the environment and climate change, education, science and technology, human rights, gender, entrepreneurship and health. The inauguration of YSBEA is part of a 3-day on boarding phase consisting of an induction and mentorship program on environment and energy; digital and infrastructure; gender equality; human development; migration and forced displacement; human rights, peace and governance; as well as sustainable growth and jobs.
YSBEA is among 30 Youth Sounding Board groups established by other EU Delegations worldwide as part of the Youth Action Plan (YAP) for EU external action. The YAP serves as the EU’s guiding framework to promote meaningful youth participation and empowerment globally for sustainable development, equality and peace. Focusing on three core areas of action: Engage, Connect and Empower, the YAP is a timely endeavor to engage young people in EU external actions.

Prudential Plc Half Year 2024 Results: Progress Continues In 2024

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 August 2024 – Prudential plc (“Prudential”; HKEX: 2378; LSE: PRU) today announced its financial results for the six months ended 30 June 2024.
Performance highlights on a constant (and actual) exchange rate basis
- New business profit of $1,468 million. This was up 8 per cent (6 per cent) excluding the effect of interest rate and other economic impacts and up 1 per cent (down (1) per cent) after allowing for these impacts
- Adjusted operating profit up 9 per cent (6 per cent) to $1,544 million
- First interim dividend of 6.84 cents per share (2023: 6.26 cents per share on an AER basis), up 9 per cent
- First tranche of $2 billion share buyback in execution. As at 22 August 2024, 22 million shares have been repurchased for £150 million ($192 million)
- EEV shareholders’ equity (before minority interests) equivalent to 1,644 cents per share (31 December 2023: 1,650 cents per share on an AER basis). After minority interests EEV shareholders’ equity was 1,575 cents per share.
- Free surplus ratio of 232 per cent (31 December 2023: 242 per cent) and a GWS shareholder capital surplus over GPCR of $15.2 billion, equivalent to a cover ratio of 282 per cent (31 December 2023: 295 per cent)
Commenting on the Results, CEO Anil Wadhwani, said:
“We entered this year with a clear strategy and a set of outcomes we are confident in achieving by 2027, namely a compounded annual growth rate for new business profit of 15 to 20 per cent and double-digit for cash generation, both measured from a 2022 base. In the first half of 2024, we delivered high quality new business profit growth of 8 per cent alongside increased margins, on an ex-economics basis, and adjusted operating profit up 9 per cent. This followed exceptional growth of 47 per cent (excluding economic impacts) in new business profit for the full year 2023, resulting from the strong rebound in Hong Kong after the removal of Covid restrictions and the opening of the border with the Chinese Mainland. We announced a $2 billion share buyback programme, to return capital to shareholders while we continue to invest in growth opportunities.”
Business commentary
Our resilient performance in the first half of 2024 was achieved having taken steps to reposition our business in the Chinese Mainland ahead of both regulatory and macro-economic changes. We also took decisive action on medical repricing in Indonesia and Malaysia in advance of the market. Other markets such as Singapore, India and Taiwan have performed well given our continued product innovation and expansion of distribution capabilities. Over the past year, we have been gaining momentum in executing our strategy, addressing known challenges, and identifying areas for continued improvement. We are strengthening our capabilities across our pillars and enablers and reinforcing this with senior leadership appointments in key areas of the business. We are focused on more effectively converting new business profit to cash, managing operational variances and seeking to leverage benefits of scale.
In distribution while agency new business profit was lower in the first half of 2024 given the high base effects in the 2023 comparative period in many markets, we are intensifying our efforts on the underlying drivers of agency growth with a focus on quality recruitment, training and embedding PRUForce, our digital agency platform. Bancassurance performed strongly with 28 per cent growth in new business profit in the first half of 2024, excluding the effect of interest rate and other economic impacts, with Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand being notable markets. We have continued to demonstrate our capital allocation discipline, focusing on quality new business, investment in capabilities and a capital management programme.
Outlook
We have seen a pick up in sales momentum in June, which continues into the second half of the year. In respect of 2024, new business profits are expected to grow at an annual rate consistent with that required to meet our 2022-2027 new business profit growth objective. The structural drivers of growth in Asia and Africa for our industry remain intact, with ongoing strong demand in respect of protection, long-term savings and retirement propositions as broader based economic growth returns to our markets. We continue to be confident in achieving our 2027 financial and strategic objectives.
