Would you like to participate in the ASEAN School Tour Programme? Why / Why not?

Yes, I would like to participate in the ASEAN School Tour Programme.
Participating in the ASEAN School Tour Programme could be a great for students to learn about ASEAN and its member countries, as well as to promote and understanding. It could also be a chance for students to meet and with peers from different countries and backgrounds, which could their perspectives and help them develop important skills.
, some students may not be interested in in the programme due to various reasons such as constraints, lack of time, or lack of interest in the topic. Additionally, some students may prefer other types of cultural exchange programmes or educational that suit their personal interests and better.
