As of 31st July 2025, which of the following country is NOT the member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations?
Pakistan
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is a regional bloc founded in 1967 to promote economic and political cooperation among the countries of Southeast Asia.
Its ten member states are Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Brunei, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Cambodia.
Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines all lie in Southeast Asia and are full members; indeed Indonesia and the Philippines were among the five founding nations in 1967.
Pakistan, however, is a South Asian country and has never belonged to ASEAN; as of 31st July 2025 the membership stood unchanged at these ten states.
Because the question asks which country is NOT a member, the one lying outside the Southeast Asian grouping is the answer.
Hence the country that is not a member of ASEAN is Pakistan.
