[成立经过] 1980年5月已故孟加拉国总统齐亚·拉赫曼致函南亚各国首脑,倡议召开南亚最高级会议,讨论开展南亚区域合作事宜。这个倡议受到尼泊尔、斯里兰卡、不丹和马尔代夫的热烈响应,并得到印度和巴基斯坦的赞同。1981年4月,孟、不、印、马、尼、巴、斯七国的外交秘书在科伦坡举行了首次会议,开始了建立南亚区域合作联盟的进程。此后,七国代表经过多次协商,就区域合作的目标和原则达成协议,拟定了有关文件,从而为南盟的成立铺平了道路。
[Established] In May 1980, the late Bangladeshi President Zia Lachman sent a letter to the heads of state of South Asia proposing the convening of the South Asian summit to discuss cooperation in South Asia. This initiative received warm responses from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and the Maldives, and was endorsed by India and Pakistan. In April 1981, the diplomatic secretaries of Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka held their first meeting in Colombo and started the process of establishing a South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation. Since then, the representatives of the seven countries have reached many agreements to reach an agreement on the objectives and principles for regional cooperation and drafted relevant documents, thus paving the way for the establishment of SAARC.
