In my opinion, the skills and experience SSEAYP participants should have, ranked in order of importance, are :

1. Good English language skills.

2. Understanding different cultures.

3. Teamwork skills.

4. Community work experience.

5. Confident speaking skills.

6. Understanding current issues in ASEAN countries.

Having good English language skills is essential since it's the working language of the program. Understanding different cultures is also important for effective communication. Teamwork skills are necessary for completing tasks and solving problems. Community work experience can be helpful in developing practical skills. Confident speaking skills are important for presenting ideas in front of an audience. Understanding current issues in ASEAN countries is important, but it is the least important skill or experience since the program focuses on cultural exchange and developing skills for the future.
