The 28th Meeting of AMEICC (AEM-METI Economic and Industrial Cooperation Committee) Working Group on Chemical Industry (WG-CI)
The annual AMEICC meeting took place via the virtual platform on 30th Aug 2023 and well attended by government and industry representatives from Japan and the ASEAN Member States (AMS).
The Meeting was co-chaired by Ms. Ma. Corazon Halili-Dichosa, Executive Director, Board of Investments (BOI), the Philippines and Mr. Takashi Hamasaka, Director for International Affairs, Material Industries Division, Manufacturing Industries Bureau, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), Japan.
AMEICC serves as the platform in connecting economies in this region where exchanges of updates on various chemical related regulations and policies in AMSs were shared and discussed including trending topics such as carbon neutrality and plastic circularity.
Singapore’s participation through SCIC allows us to build a closer rapport with the industry and regulators from other AMS and to be kept informed of the developments of chemical control regulations. This will help to strengthen SCIC’s position in driving our regional regulatory advocacy issues on behalf of our members with other AMS.
