Recognising the People Behind Every Record
Every verified record represents more than a measurable result. Behind each achievement are individuals, teams and organisations whose dedication, perseverance and commitment have contributed to reaching a defined milestone.
For many record holders, the journey involves years of development, continuous improvement, collaboration and determination.
The appreciation ceremony provided a moment to recognise these efforts and celebrate the people responsible for turning ambitious goals into documented achievements.
It also brought together record holders from different industries, creating an opportunity to share experiences, strengthen connections and celebrate one another’s accomplishments.
A Lasting Celebration of Regional Excellence
The 10th Gather of Achievers reflected ASEAN Records’ commitment to recognising not only newly achieved milestones but also the continued significance of previously certified records.
By bringing record holders together on one stage, the appreciation ceremony highlighted the diversity of achievements contributing to business development, innovation, cultural heritage, education and community progress across Southeast Asia.
The occasion served as a reminder that every verified achievement carries a story of determination and that recognition extends beyond the moment a certificate is first presented.
ASEAN Records extends its congratulations and appreciation to all 2025/2026 record holders, whose achievements continue to inspire others to pursue meaningful and measurable excellence.

During the Founders’ Address, Gillian Ooi and Eldrick Koh announced that ASEAN Records and ASIA Records had achieved ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System certification by SGS.

The certifications are valid from 30 September 2026 to 30 September 2029, under Certificate Nos. MY26/00000647 (UKAS) and MY26/00000648 (DSM).

“A record is not something you buy. It is something you prove.”
Eldrick Koh also highlighted the importance of independent auditing in providing assurance to record holders, partners and the public:
“Our record holders, our partners and the public deserve that assurance. When you hold an ASEAN Records or ASIA Records certificate, you can stand behind it.”
The certification reinforces ASEAN Records’ commitment to maintaining structured verification processes and consistent standards as its regional recognition platform continues to grow.
Expanding Opportunities for Regional Record Holders

Certified achievements will also be shared across the organisations’ official Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn and WhatsApp Channel accounts.
