The Ship for Southeast Asian and Japanese Youth Program (SSEAYP) is based on the respective Joint Statements issued in January 1974 between Japan and Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. Brunei (1985), Vietnam (1996), Laos and Myanmar (1998), then Cambodia (2000) joined later after admission to ASEAN as official members of the association. The program is carried out by Government of Japan with the active participation and cooperation of these 10 Southeast Asian countries.

The aims of the Program are to promote friendship and mutual understanding among the youths of Japan and 10 ASEAN member countries, to broaden their perspective on the world, and to strengthen their spirit of international cooperation and practical skills for international collaboration. With these objectives, we aim to cultivate youth who are capable of exercising their leadership in their respective fields in a globalizing society and contributing social progress including youth development. These aims can be achieved through participating in various exchange activities both onboard and in the countries to be visited.
