Chapter 1 in ASEAN-Japan Economic Partnership for a Sustainable and Resilient Future, pp 1-21 from Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (ERIA)

Abstract: In November, 2007, Japan and Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Member States (AMS) concluded a comprehensive economic partnership agreement in Manila; it was signed by all parties by 14 April 2008. The agreement - the ASEAN-Japan Comprehensive Economic Partnership (AJCEP) - entered into force between 1 December 2008 and 1 July 2010, depending on the party. The AJCEP aims to (i) strengthen ASEAN-Japan economic integration; (ii) enhance their mutual competitiveness in the world market; (iii) progressively liberalise and facilitate trade in goods and services in a transparent and liberal investment regime; (iv) explore new areas and develop appropriate measures for further cooperation and integration; and (v) facilitate the more effective economic integration of Cambodia, the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), Myanmar, and Viet Nam, and bridge the development gap in ASEAN (ASEAN Secretariat, 2008).
