create National Focal Points at the initiative level to complement the work of the existing ASEAN Connectivity National Coordinators. This can help ensure better coordination with the relevant implementing bodies in each ASEAN Member State. iv. Presence of core skills, incentives, and finance. A high-functioning delivery system has access to the critical skills it needs to execute its mission, with strong incentives to motivate performance, supported by access to necessary finance. The National Focal Points and relevant implementing bodies will be critical to the successful delivery of MPAC 2025. There is a need to strengthen the ASEAN Connectivity Division to support the implementation of MPAC 2025. v. Proactive stakeholder engagement. Proactive stakeholder engagement requires the cultivation of relationships that will be critical to the success of the programme, alongside regular communications about the delivery effort and associated priorities. To support this, the ASEAN Secretariat will provide regular (e.g., annual) updates to key business associations and other external stakeholders on the progress in implementing MPAC 2025. In addition, the ASEAN Secretariat will develop the ASEAN Connectivity website to include regular updates on progress, and look to offer spokespeople for the connectivity agenda at key conferences. vi. Robust performance management. An impartial and rigorous performance-tracking system must be a data-driven, fact-based process with a regular cycle of updates. There should also be mechanisms to ensure problems are identified and flagged up at an early stage, and then solved in order of priority. To achieve this, semi-annual progress reviews will be held for each of the five strategic areas; these will be conducted with the ACCC leads for the specific strategic area, the ASEAN Secretariat, the National Coordinators and National Focal Points, and the Chairs of the relevant ASEAN Sectoral Bodies.
