"There's a lot of things that ASEAN member states can learn from China as well," said Kung Phoak, praising China's commitment and efforts in reducing poverty.

"I am so happy to know that the country is on track to completely reduce poverty by the end of this year," he said. "There will be a lot of lessons and best practices that we can learn from China as well," he added.

Kung Phoak also commented on China's white paper that chronicles its fight against the COVID-19 outbreak in the past months.

"The white paper is very comprehensive and very detailed," said Kung Phoak. He believed that the white paper is going to be "extremely useful" for countries that are still battling the outbreak.

Founded in 1967, ASEAN comprises 10 countries of Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. (1 yuan equals 0.14 USD)
