Asia Security Summit




The 11th Asia Security Summit(Shangri-La Dialogue) was held in Singapore on June 1st and 2nd. Ministers of National Defense from over twenty countries, including Korea, U.S.A., China, Russia and Japan gathered in Singapore to discuss the security situation in Asia.
One of the heated topics was North Korea's nuclear experiment and missile experiments. Southeast Asia's territorial dispute over the South China sea was also a big discussion topic.
Minister of National Defense Kim, Kwan Jin of South Korea participated in a Korea, U.S.A., Japan Defense Summit and also had meetings with India and Australia's Ministers of Defense. He had discussions about North Korea, South China Sea's territorial dispute, and the overall peace of the Asian continent.
One thing to note is the summit's collective decision to stand strong against North Korea's provocation ways, like their missile experiments, nuclear experiments and other forms of human cruelty. The summit's consequential action regarding North Korea in the coming weeks and months is something to look forward to.
