Abstract: This study examines the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the economic integration of the ASEAN-6 region. The study finds that the coronavirus pandemic's impact can be easily traced using stringency, bilateral exports, and tourist arrivals, indicating a significant implication for the economic integration process. The firm-level analysis suggests that though the coronavirus outbreak's impact has caused uniformly to firms, the effect varies across ASEAN-6 nations. The pandemic strongly impacts large firms.
