A series of events, including an ASEAN-India IT and ITES Seminar, a cultural performance and a culinary week, is planned in Ho Chi Minh City around the time of the group's passage through the city.
The vehicles will pass through eight of the 10 ASEAN countries ( Indonesia , Singapore , Malaysia , Thailand , Cambodia , Vietnam , Laos and Myanmar ), missing out on the Philippines and Brunei .
The caravan will return to New Delhi in mid-December when an ASEAN-India Commemorative Summit will be held there with the heads of state or government of the 10 members participating.-VNA
