News : ASEAN unity in doubt as Indonesia calls for special COVID-19 summit.

The absence of a concerted ASEAN response to the coronavirus pandemic has put a spotlight on member states’ commitment to regional integration and unity. And now Indonesia, one of the grouping's five founding states, is calling for a special summit on a regional COVID-19 strategy.

The ASEAN Community concept was introduced in 2015 to develop a regional community that was “politically cohesive, economically integrated, and socially responsible”. Observers say, however, that ASEAN states have failed at anticipating a regional pandemic, never mind a regional prevention and control strategy as part of the vision for an integrated ASEAN.

Southeast Asian nations are beginning to see the all-encompassing challenges that come with their own localized outbreaks while the number of confirmed cases grows across the region.

Yet, each member state is using a different approach to curbing the spread of the virus, whether in the form of quarantines, lockdowns, border closures or travel bans, while each have introduced various economic stimulus packages to buffer the impacts of COVID-19.

Senior officials from the 10 member states with expertise in health, politics, economics and sociocultural affairs met on Tuesday by video link under the framework of the ASEAN Coordinating Council Working Group (ACCWG) on Public Health Emergencies.

Indonesia told the meeting that it was time for ASEAN to hold a virtual summit as well as an ASEAN Plus Three Summit in order to strengthen cooperation against the deadly virus, which has infected more than 10,000 people across the region.

“Indonesia believes that a special summit will send a positive signal to the public, businesses and investors,” the Indonesian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.

Recalling : GRAMMAR PAST TENSE / SIMPLE PAST TENSE

The Past Simple tense, also called the Simple Past, is used for past actions that happened either at a specific time, which can either be given by a time phrase (yesterday, last year, etc.) or understood from the context. Regular Verbs add -ed to the base form, or -d if the verbs ends with -e. Irregular verbs can change in many different ways.

kalimat positif (+)
S + Verb-2 (past tense) = "The teacher came"
S + be (was/were) = "I was a stamp collector"

kalimat negatif (-)
S + did + not + bare infinitive = "The teacher didn't come"
S + be (was/were) + not = "I wasn't a stamp collector"

kalimat interogatif (?)
did + S + bare infinitive = "Sid the teacher come?"
be (was/were) + S = "Was I a stamp collector?"
