In 2019, with funding from the Government of Japan, the GP-TOC together with the UNODC Regional Office for Southeast Asia and the Pacific (ROSEAP) undertook an initiative to support the establishment of a judicial cooperation network in Southeast Asia. Three regional meetings were held with the participation of Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Viet Nam with the support of the Secretariat for the Treaty on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters (ASEAN Mutual Legal Assistance Secretariat). Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines, who were not able to attend the third regional meeting will be also invited to the upcoming meetings/events for their further consideration of participation to the SEAJust.
