Da Nang (ANTARA News/VNA) - Indonesian Foreign Minister M. Natalegawa has praised Vietnam at the start of the year it WILL hold the regional organization`s chair, saying that "Vietnam has started its ASEAN chairmanship very well."

The Indonesian minister told reporters on the sidelines of a regional meeting in Da Nang on January 13-14 that he believed many of the grouping`s issues will be solved in 2010 as the first two weeks of the year have passed and Vietnam has already hosted several meetings.

According to Natalegawa, cooperating in security matters among ASEAN countries was one of the three ASEAN Community`s pillars. He said that he hoped the issues would see practical outcomes in the year Vietnam holds the chair.
