KUALA LUMPUR, March 3 (Bernama) — The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) economic ministers has proposed a common digital vaccine certificate to speed up the reopening of hardest-hit sectors such as tourism, said Senior Minister cum International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.
However, he said that there was no specific timeline set when the common digital vaccine certificate would be introduced, as the matter would be brought up at the health ministers level meeting.
“This is a new proposal, I was informed (about it) by Brunei as chairman.
“There is no timeline imposed on this particular proposal, but I believe if it can be finalised in the near future, it will definitely help facilitate movements among ASEAN members,” he said after the 27th ASEAN Economic Ministers (AEM) Retreat here Wednesday.
