* 2004-08-07 [[Abdullah Ahmad Badawi]]: "22. IN ORDER TO KEEP ASEAN WITH THE PEOPLE, THE ASEAN COMMUNITY WOULD NEED TO PRESENT ITSELF IN IMAGES AND SYMBOLS THAT ARE IDENTIFIABLY ASEAN IN CHARACTER. SOME POSSIBILITIES COME TO MIND, SUCH AS AN ASEAN COMMON TIME ZONE, AN ASEAN COMMON TRAVEL DOCUMENT OR, MORE AMBITIOUSLY, AN ASEAN COMMON CURRENCY. ALL THESE WOULD MAKE IT CLEAR TO THE PEOPLE THAT THE ASEAN COMMUNITY IS ACTUALLY ABOUT THEM.".
