During the meeting, CAG shared the trends facing the global public sector training landscape and facilitated discussions between the PSTI leaders on opportunities for regional collaboration in capability development for public sector leaders.
The ASEAN Network of PSTIs was established to promote cooperation and exchange among ASEAN countries for public sector capability development, and to support public sector transformation in ASEAN countries. The theme for this year’s meeting was enhancing leadership capabilities for effective national governance in the context of globalisation and digitalisation. The meeting was graced by Vice Minister for Home Affairs, Dr. Vu Chien Thang.
In his remarks to PSTI leaders, Vice Minister Vu spoke about the importance of the PSTI Network as a platform for ASEAN PSTIs to exchange good practices and exploit opportunities for collaboration. He also reaffirmed the role of international organisations like the Chandler Governance Group (CGG) in supporting the work by NAPA. Mr Kenneth Sim, Dean, CAG expressed his gratitude to NAPA and the Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA) for entrusting CGG to anchor the discussions during this meeting and reaffirmed CGG’s commitment to supporting public sector capability development, in collaboration with its government partners.

During the meeting, CAG shared key insights from the Chandler Good Government Index (CGGI), one of which was about the close relationship between strong government capabilities and good national outcomes. CAG also shared key findings from CAG’s Global Trends and Challenges of Public Sector LeadershipTraining. The insights and findings helped to set the stage for discussions by the PSTI leaders on strategies and initiatives to improve public sector leadership training in their respective countries, and explore opportunities for regional collaboration.
