They discussed and signed a proposal presented by Nguyen Phuc Buu Chanh concerning the agreement of the four Imperial and Royal Families.
The Mutual Agreement was signed between four Imperial and Royal Families including Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Burma. Prince Nguyen Phuc Buu Chanh representing the Vietnamese Imperial Family signed in the agreement, Prince Mangkra Souvannaphouma signed in the role of the Lao Royal Family's representative and Prince Shwebomin signed as the Burmese Royal Family's representative.
Afterwards, Madame Marie de Roland-Peel, General Secretary of the British Committee for Free Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia & Burma visited the Kingdom of Cambodia to meet His Royal Majesty Norodom Sihanouk and H.R.H. Prince Norodom Ranariddh. They also agreed to join the Southeast Asia Imperial & Royal League.
After the Southeast Asia Imperial & Royal League was founded, Nguyen Phuc Buu Chanh was unanimously nominated as the President of the League, Prince Mangkra Souvannaphouma as Secretary General and Prince Shwebomin as Honorary Treasurer of the League.
On April 30, 2005, Nguyen Phuc Buu Chanh retired from politics due to his health and the Head of the Nguyen Dynasty Crown Prince Bao Long represents the Vietnamese Royal Family of the Southeast Asia Imperial & Royal League.
