China will work closely with and provide necessary technical assistance to ASEAN countries on flu-fighting, the minister said, adding that one possible area for collaboration is capacity building, another being scientific research.

"If needed, China is willing to organize training courses for rapid diagnostic technology and provide reagents to ASEAN countries," Chen said.

His proposal came as he is attending the ministerial session of ASEAN Plus Three health ministers' special meeting on A/H1N1 Influenza, which proceeds on Thursday and Friday in Bangkok in a bid to map out cooperation plans and strategies to handle the potential pandemic of the new flu strain in the region.

Chen also extended China's support to the Joint Ministerial Statement on Influenza A/H1N1, which was drafted on Thursday's session and is being discussed and signed by the ministers Friday morning.
