  • The main objective of this study was to investigate the awareness and perception of young professionals in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam countries on the ASEAN Economic Community (hereafter, AEC). Data from a survey of 575 young professionals, with approximately equal distribution from each country, were collected in June and July 2015. Research findings revealed that the knowledge and understanding of the AEC among the Gen Y professionals were still marginal. Although they lack awareness, young professionals had a good impression and perception of the AEC in connection with important benefits for them individually as well as for their country. Finally, the study revealed that the Gen Y professionals showed some level of optimistic attitude that they could succeed in the AEC as they thought that they were quite well prepared, having sufficient skills to work or to do business in other ASEAN countries.

  • This paper attempts to review of recent development of ASEAN financial integration and to evaluate it and predict its future aspect. For this purpose, we first examine the historic aspect of ASEAN financial integration such as ASEAN financial service open agreement or ASEAN capital market forum report and currently agreed integration plan. In addition, we study the development stages of ASEAM member countries in terms of its economic size or income level. Finally, we look at the financial market and institutional aspect of ASEAN member countries and the recent development of global financial market. From these analyses, we find several important facts. First, it is true that ASEAN, in general, will enjoy the effect of expanding regional investment and improving the quality of financial service through the financial integration. We think that its long term benefit is too large for ASEAN member states to avoid. Second, as a result, it is certain that ASEAN will corporate further to make its financial market to be integrated in the future. Third, however, despite these benefits and continuing efforts, we expect that it will be very difficult for ASEAN to reach a stage of financial integration as suggested in the Blueprint of ASEAN Economic Community by the year of 2015. The large difference among member states in term of economic and financial development will not allow for them to reach a single goal within a short time. Instead, we expect the following scenario for the integration process will hold. First, ASEAN will reach an agreement on the institutional framework by 2015 and afterwards, slowly the markets will begin to integrate. Second, at the earlier stage, not all but some countries will start the integration process. We expect that the financial market of ASEAN 5 will first be integrated and other 5 will join to it later.

  • ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) was established in 2015 from 10 countries to realize the ultimate (adopted in 1997), which aimed to transform ASEAN into a stable, prosperous, and highly competitive region with equitable economic development, reduced poverty, and socioeconomic disparities. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of knowledge level on the AEC of Vietnamese small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the textile and apparel industry towards attitudes, readiness, and performance. This study uses convenience sampling to get questionnaires from 150 SMEs in Hanoi, Vietnam. Then, the paper applies SPSS-AMOS 24 to process data. The empirical results show that AEC's implementation only has a small impact on improving SME performance. However, SMEs have adequate knowledge, attitude, and readiness about AEC. The structural modeling findings indicate that the knowledge factor has an indirect effect on SMEs' performance. This finding is to provide new insight into the roles of attitude and readiness in the case of Vietnam. These factors are needed to mediate the effect of attitudes and readiness in the relationship between knowledge and business performance, a framework strategy of business organizations, and can be used as a conceptual model to improve SMEs' performance.

  • 현재 동아시아에서는 경제통합을 둘러싼 논의가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 1997년 발생한 동아시아 통화위기는 역내에서 제도적인 협력체 형성을 위한 논의를 본격화 시키는 계기를 마련하였다. 이후 ASEAN+3 정상회의가 정례화 됨으로써 지역경제협력 및 경제통합 논의가 시작되었다. 또한, 동아시아에서는 역내외 다국적기업이 직접투자를 통해 생산공정을 역내 산업집적지에 분산(fragmentation)시키는 공정간 분업체제가 국제적 생산·유통네트워크를 구축함으로서 경제통합을 가속화시키는 역할을 하고 있다. 이러한 역내 네트워크는 각국·지역간 FTA체결을 통해 강화되었고 경제관계의 심화로 연결되고 있다. 그러나 동아시아는 지역 내 경제격차, 문화의 다양성과 사회·정치제도의 차이, 역사적 화해 등 산적한 문제를 가지고 있어 경제공동체 구성의 앞날이 순탄하지 못할 것이 예상되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 동아시아 지역협력강화 현황을 살펴보고 EU의 경제통합 성공사례의 시사점을 통해 동아시아 경제공동체 형성의 가능성과 구성의 논점을 고찰한다.

  • 2017년 창설 50주년을 맞은 아세안(ASEAN)은 제도적 보완과 기능적 협력을 강화하기 위해 일련의 선언과 행동 계획을 채택했다. 아세안의 '회합력'(convening power)이 아세안 중심성(centrality)과 회복력(resilience)을 촉진하고 있다. 반면 아세안 회원국의 민주주의 후퇴는 전통적 규범의 한계를 심화시키고 아세안의 이행력을 저하시킨다. 이 글은 아세안 주요 쟁점을 고찰하고 전망을 도출하고자 한다. 첫째, 아세안의 제도적 발전과 기능적 협력의 현황을 아세안 공동체 건설의 현황과 쟁점을 중심으로 살피고자 한다. 둘째, 아세안의 대외 관계를 중국, 미국, 한국과의 관계를 중심으로 살피고자 한다. 남중국해 이슈 및 중국의 경제적 영향력 확대는 아세안-중국관계의 복잡성을 심화시키고 있다. 트럼프 행정부의 대 동남아 정책 변화에 대응하기 위해서는 아세안의 단결이 필요하다. 한국의 신남방정책은 여러 제약에도 불구하고 양자 관계에 있어 전환점이 될 것으로 기대된다. 대외 환경의 변화 속에 아세안 단결과 중심성의 강화가 더욱 절실해지고 있다.

  • Singapore and Thailand have been rapidly ageing. There has been a growing demand for eldercarers in the home-setting for which migrant domestic workers have filled the role. This paper examines the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Consensus governing women migrant workers entering the eldercare sector. It argues that because the ASEAN Consensus is not legally binding, it only serves to reinforce the sovereignty of states in the treatment of migrant workers instead of member states acting in unison to ensure labour protections for this group; as a result, Singapore and Thailand do not feel the need to step up protections for this group of workers according to national labor laws and hence low-skilled women migrant workers entering the eldercare sector continue to be vulnerable to labour abuses. Thus as with globalization, the ASEAN Economic Community manifests the paradox of borders: that while states are economically interconnected and interdependent, they are simultaneously disconnected and independent from each other.

  • Issues in the construction industry of Cambodia in ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) is the main priority to be identified before identifying causing factors in order to find out recommendations, to improve this sector, and to survive in this community. Two major issues were identified from the literature review and the investigation, namely i) Long-term vision and its policy, and ii) practice culture. The total sample collected from concerned government officers and engineers in Cambodia were 463. Factor analysis was then conducted to find out the issues, and as the results, there are five issues in two main groups: (i) the Organization's vision and its skill, which consist of a vision of the organization, knowledge and skill, and less investmen in the construction sector; (ii) Knowledge and motivation towards the AEC, which consist of knowledge about the AEC, and level to promote organization for the AEC.

  • 아세안은 아세안 경제공동체를 통해 거대경제권과 아시아의 FTA 허브로 변화하고 있다. 한국이 아세안과 통상관계를 확대 발전시키려면 아세안의 변화를 정확히 이해해야 한다. 한국의 대아세안 통상정책, ODA 정책, 기업의 투자는 아세안의 변화와 변화하고자 하는 미래 모습에 발맞추어 시의적절하게 이루어져야 한다. 한국은 아세안의 변화를 체계적으로 이해하고 이를 통해서 한국이 아세안과 통상협력을 통해 동반성장할 수 있는 방안을 마련해야 한다. 특히 한국은 아세안의 통상파트너로서 아세안의 한계와 문제점을 한아세안 통상협력을 통해 해결할 수 있는 다각적인 방안을 마련해야 한다. 본 논문은 아세안의 변화와 한아세안 통상관계를 다각적으로 분석하여 아세안의 변화에 능동적으로 대응할 수 있는 한국의 대아세안 통상전략을 제시하고자 한다.

  • This study examines the measures for the activation and the growth of intra-regional trade in Southeast Asia taking a look at the four dimensions of tariff rates, non-tariff barriers, trade facilitations, and trade infrastructures. Utilizing a gravity model, we performed empirical analysis and discussed the policy implications with the priorities to implement. To expand the intra-regional trade in Southeast Asia it would be necessary to enhance the level of trade facilitations and provide trade infrastructures, such as ports and airports as well as cutting the tariff rates and eliminating the non-trade barriers. In particular, in the case of exports of ASEAN6 to ASEAN6 the infrastructure is the important factor. Also, in the case of the exports of ASEAN6 to CLMV(Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam), it is expected that eliminating non-tariff barriers and enhancing trade facilitations may play important roles in the progress of intra-regional trade. These results may provide the important implications for Southeast Asian countries, which are trying to promote intra-regional trade ahead of the constitution of ASEAN Economic Community by 2015. Southeast Asian countries could be evaluated to achieve a certain level of trade liberalization and economic integration through the formation of AFTA. But in order for Southeast Asia to develop to advanced economic integrated region it requires mutual cooperations and policy harmonizations among regional countries. Also, for the elimination of non-tariff barriers, promoting trade facilitations, and providing infrastructures, the administrative, legal, and institutional measures would have to be fulfilled in advance. In addition, capital investment for constructing infrastructures would be necessary to realize the intra-regional trade expansion. However, to achieve the goal, it would require a large capital investment and highly mandated policy considerations and harmonizations among Southeast Asian countries in terms of further trade liberalization and economic integration.

  • The Sasaq community in Lombok, Indonesia has been recognized as a peasant community with its unique and strong social capital. Sources of social capital recognition can be derived from common terms or expressions and institutions practiced in community daily life. However, there is a trend of neglecting and ignoring those values by the community, especially the youth. Through action research, we would like to revitalize social capital of the community in supporting social and economic development in the rural level. In this paper, we introduce a Strategic Leadership and Learning Organization (SLLO) approach to build community participation in solving social and economic problems. Through regular dialogue, communities come with common agreements and collective action that are perceived as emergence property. Several common agreements are intended to solve community problems actually in line with the objectives of government designated development.
