AVM Timor-Leste is proud to celebrate, together with our staff, this historic milestone as Timor-Leste joins ASEAN. We honour the resilience of our people and look ahead to new opportunities in skills, jobs, and regional collaboration. ASEAN membership opens stronger pathways for training standards, student and staff mobility, and partnerships with industry across the region. For our team, it means deeper professional development, clearer benchmarks, and wider networks to serve communities better. Thank you to every colleague whose dedication brought us here. Together, we will help Timor-Leste translate this achievement into real benefits for youth, families, and our growing economy.
