Book excerpt: This document has been created with the aim of highlighting the significant advances by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in engagement and support to its ten member countries in implementing their national Codex activities. The authors consolidated inputs provided by the national focal points together with FAO country offices. This report supersedes the previous version entitled “Status of National Codex Activities” published in 2012. It also provides information for food safety competent authorities in the government sector outside of the ASEAN region. In addition, the intention is that the document will help to indirectly strengthen collaboration within the region through the discussion and benchmarking of good practices. This document will also serve as the new baseline for the success of further projects and improvements made by the countries and FAO in strengthening capacities for enhancing Codex Alimentarius activities in ASEAN.
