When did Australia become the ASEAN policing authority for ASEAN?

It is really a big mistake to get Australia involved in ASEAN.  Singapore, as the chairman of ASEAN 2018, should stop Australia from pushing and imposing its own agenda and values on ASEAN.

Singapore is creating ramification in ASEAN when it doesn't take action against Australia.  Australia is provoking the ire of developing ASEAN countries and ASEAN will become a less effective and cohesive entity.
