The ASEAN Way refers to the way of organization and decision-making that characterizes ASEAN, which centers on the principles of non-interference and consensus through informal consultations. It makes ASEAN an informal organization and its decisions unbinding. It does not seek to establish a binding supernational authority, highlights sovereign inviolability and pursues absolute equality between counties. Following the ASEAN Way, ASEAN is established as a loose and flexible regional organization.
