BBC Global Questions will be heading to Phnom Penh, Cambodia for the 50th anniversary of The Association of South East Asian Nations (Asean).

Five decades on from its inception, has Asean achieved what it set out to accomplish?

The South East Asia region saw rapid economic growth in the decades after Asean was formed. While growth benefited some, poverty is still endured by the majority.

So what do the people of south east Asia want from their governments and for their future?

For this edition of Global Questions we have assembled a high-profile panel of political figures and key decision-makers to discuss Asean and the future of the region.

We want you to send us your questions so that we can put some of them to the panel.
