ASEAN leaders stressed that connectivity is ASEAN's high priority in its effort to promote regional connectivity and build the ASEAN Community, expressing thanks to the RoK'seffective support for the grouping in implementing master plans on ASEAN connectivity in the periods of 2010-2015 and 2015-2025 and the Initiative for ASEAN Integration (IAI) to narrow the development gap;  developing human resources, vocational training, smart cities, roads, railways and sea routes to connect areas in ASEAN.
