ASEAN
As of September 2026, ASEAN continues to deepen economic integration through accelerated implementation of the ASEAN Economic Community's post-2025 agenda, focusing on digital economy harmonization and supply chain resilience amid global uncertainties. Recent ASEAN summit outcomes emphasize enhanced cooperation on semiconductor value chains and sustainability initiatives. Key drivers include competition from China-US technology rivalry and shifts in global trade patterns. However, internal disparities in digital infrastructure and geopolitical tensions in the South China Sea present ongoing risks to cohesive policy execution and investor confidence.
