At its height of glory, ASEAN community spirit has reached and inspired every parts of its nations and drives the people toward its vision. At no time in the history has our region been very interdependent as it currently is. That sense of complete community is within the reach, crystallizing the reduction of cultural and economic barriers to encourage previously unparalleled communication between nations. As evidence, in May 2013, there will be a huge event in Indonesia for all ASEAN bloggers to meet and cultivate the love and mutual respects. Therefore, it is my desire to participate in ASEAN Bloggers Festival 2013 which will be held in Solo, Central Java, Indonesia. As an advocate to ASEAN movement, this exciting event provides me a golden opportunity to nurture and engage with other ASEANer and bloggers in a larger and better context.
As 2015 approaches, ASEAN bloggers' share of responsibility is growing and expanding in glamorous fashion. While there are many different types of role and capability these bloggers can fit in and offer, one of the most important thing is to empower the media to bridge and integrate the people of ASEAN because the larger implication is the power of media in the modern society. The quicker spread of information and expression of mind has been made possible by the rapid technology, yet people are working to make it better. So, as technology is rising, bloggers will have better access because operation and media delivery will be made more accessible. Consequently, if this power of media are enforced with right ethical and cultural values, then bloggers will be able to help shaping the ASEAN community in the upcoming future. By then, they will become the voice of ASEAN and at the same time represent their respective nation. In this sense, every citizens of this region will be able to share, learn and grow together and in extend, inspire others to believe in the ASEAN community. Such is the responsibility of each ASEAN bloggers who wishes to contribute to the coming world of peace and prosperity empowered by its people.
