The Road to 2015 ASEAN Economic Community: Maximizing opportunities and facing challenges

When: 23 October 2012, Tuesday

8:00 AM to 12:00 noon

The 10 ASEAN member nations are moving towards integration, with the goal of forming an ASEAN Economic Community by 2015. Designed to boost regional resilience, the AEC will create a single market and production base characterized by the free flow of goods, services, investments, capital and skilled labor.

What does this development mean for your business?

Our 2012 business forum will endeavor to answer this, and other critical concerns:

· What does the integration mean for the ASEAN member nations in general and the Philippines in particular?

· What role will we play in this development?

· How will it affect businesses and local industries?

· How far along are we in making this integration happen?

· What lessons can we learn from the European Union?

Our keynote speaker is His Excellency Dr. Lim Hong Hin, Deputy Secretary General of the ASEAN.
