We hope that through these trade arrangements, through collaboration in training, in manpower development, and what have you, ASEAN in, say, ten years' time, will be a very different ASEAN.

This quote is talking about the potential of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The idea is that through cooperation between the countries in the region, a lot can be done in terms of improving trade, training, and manpower development. If this is done, it is suggested that in ten years time, ASEAN will look very different and be much more prosperous.
