TheAsian Parliamentary Assembly (APA) aims to promotepeace in general, and in the Asian region in particular. It was established as theAssociation of Asian Parliaments for Peace (AAPP) in September 1999 bySheikh Hasina, acquiring its current name in 2006 during the Seventh Session of the AAPP.[1][2] The APA consisted, as of 2007, of 41 Member Parliaments and 17 observers. Each Member Parliament has a specific number of seats in the Assembly based on the size of their population. The number of total seats, and therefore, number of votes, is currently 206. Members of Assembly must be elected bymembers of the Member Parliaments. The APA Charter and Tehran Declaration lay out a framework of cooperation among Asian countries, and point out to a vision; that is Asian Integration.

The APA differed from its predecessor through a focus on broadening areas of cooperation towardregional integration with the long term perspective to eventually reach the status of an Asian commonlegislative mechanism. Unlike the AAPP, members of the APA Plenary must be elected by members of member parliaments.[clarification needed]

A 2017 standing committee meeting was held inBhutan.[3] The 10th plenary session, in November 2017 inIstanbul, was on the topic of "Sustaining Peace and Development in Asia".[4]
