First launched in 2018, the HCI measures the amount of human capital that a child born today can expect to attain by age 18. It conveys the productivity of the next generation of workers compared to a benchmark of complete education and full health. Worldwide a child born in 2020 can expect, on average, to be 56 percent as productive as she could be when she grows up. All data represent the status of countries pre-COVID-19. THE HUMAN CAPITAL INDEX Human Capital Index.

Maintaining this momentum, however, will require certain reforms to strengthen the region’s economic and social sustainability. This will include reducing regulatory barriers to competition and market entry to help foster innovation, efficiency and productivity. The logistics sector plays a significant role in fostering economic development. Apart from its contribution to a country’s GDP, a well-developed logistics network has an impact on most economic activities.

  • Don't Make Us Choose: Southeast Asia in the Throes of US-China Rivalry
    THE NEW GEOPOLITICS OCTOBER 2019 ASIA DON’T MAKE US CHOOSE Southeast Asia in the throes of US-China rivalry JONATHAN STROMSETH DON’T MAKE US CHOOSE Southeast Asia in the throes of US-China rivalry JONATHAN STROMSETH EXECUTIVE SUMMARY U.S.-China rivalry has intensified significantly in Southeast Asia over the past year. This report chronicles the unfolding drama as it stretched across the major Asian summits in late 2018, the Second Belt and Road Forum in April 2019, the Shangri-La Dialogue in May-June, and the 34th summit of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in August. Focusing especially on geoeconomic aspects of U.S.-China competition, the report investigates the contending strategic visions of Washington and Beijing and closely examines the region’s response. In particular, it examines regional reactions to the Trump administration’s Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) strategy. FOIP singles out China for pursuing regional hegemony, says Beijing is leveraging “predatory economics” to coerce other nations, and poses a clear choice between “free” and “repressive” visions of world order in the Indo-Pacific region. China also presents a binary choice to Southeast Asia and almost certainly aims to create a sphere of influence through economic statecraft and military modernization. Many Southeast Asians are deeply worried about this possibility. Yet, what they are currently talking about isn’t China’s rising influence in the region, which they see as an inexorable trend that needs to be managed carefully, but the hard-edged rhetoric of the Trump administration that is casting the perception of a choice, even if that may not be the intent.

  • Background Note for the South East Asia Justice Network (The Seajust)
    Background note for the South East Asia Justice Network (The SEAJust) ⚫ The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), Organized Crime Branch (OCB), Global Programme to Support the Capacity of member States to Prevent and Combat Serious and (transnational) Organized Crime (GP-TOC), facilitates international cooperation in criminal matters by supporting the development and implementation of regional judicial cooperation networks. The GP-TOC has supported the establishment of four judicial cooperation networks. These include the Judicial Cooperation Network of Central Asia and Southern Caucasus (CASC), the West African Network of Central Authorities and Prosecutors (WACAP), the Great Lakes Judicial Cooperation Network (GLJC) and most recently, the South East Asia Justice (SEAJust) Network. These networks are based upon the model and working methods of the European Judicial Network (EJN). ⚫ The networks provide a framework to promote expeditious execution of mutual legal assistance (MLA) requests for all forms of serious and organized crime. The networks work through formally appointed contact points who serve as “active intermediaries” to facilitate judicial cooperation in criminal matters with competent authorities of other networks or countries, if requested. In addition to the case work performed by the network contact points, the networks may convene or establish working groups on specific thematic issues on a temporary or a permanent basis. The networks may also facilitate training and the development or dissemination of practical tools and guides on international cooperation in criminal matters through the networks’ regional meetings and capacity building activities. ⚫ In 2019, with funding from the Government of Japan, the GP-TOC together with the UNODC Regional Office for Southeast Asia and the Pacific (ROSEAP) undertook an initiative to support the establishment of a judicial cooperation network in Southeast Asia.

  • Asean Economic Prospects Amid Emerging Turbulence: Development Challenges and Implications for Reform Khuong Vu
    ASEAN ECONOMIC PROSPECTS AMID EMERGING TURBULENCE: DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES AND IMPLICATIONS FOR REFORM KHUONG VU JULY 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This paper reviews the performance of ASEAN countries over the two decades since the Asian financial crisis in the late 1990s, as well as the countries’ vulnerabilities to the U.S.-China trade war and the COVID-19 pandemic. It argues that these turbulences indicate that the world has reached an inflection point, requiring fundamental change in development thinking and approaches. This message is particularly relevant for Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries, which made impressive economic achievements before the COVID-19 outbreak. As all ASEAN countries have established aspirational goals for their development journeys over the next two to three decades, it is imperative that each country undertake decisive fundamental reforms and strategic shifts in order to be highly prepared, competitive, and resilient in the future development landscape. Furthermore, ASEAN will be much stronger if it can position itself as an integrated market and a well-coordinated community, in which each country endeavors to enhance not only its own fitness, but also the fitness of the region in the post-COVID-19 global economic evolution. INTRODUCTION To better project the future prospects of ASEAN countries, it is important to comprehend the The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) three prevailing distinctive features of the region: comprises 10 countries: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, harmonious diversity, development aspirations, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, and an embrace of global integration. In terms of Thailand, and Vietnam (Table 1). Situated between harmonious diversity, the 10 countries have different two rising economic powers, China and India, ASEAN religions, population sizes, political systems, and countries are facing enormous direct opportunities levels of economic development.

    The Authority on World Travel & Tourism Travel & Tourism ECONOMIC IMPACT 2015 ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA For more information, please contact: Rochelle Turner Head of Research [email protected] ©2015 World Travel & Tourism Council Foreword The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) is the global authority on the economic and social contribution of Travel & Tourism. WTTC promotes sustainable growth for the sector, working with governments and international institutions to create jobs, to drive exports and to generate prosperity. Travel & Tourism’s impact on the economic and social development of a country can be enormous; opening it up for business, trade and capital investment, creating jobs and entrepreneurialism for the workforce and protecting heritage and cultural values. To fully understand its impact, however, governments, policy makers and businesses around the world require accurate and reliable data on the impact of the sector. Data is needed to help assess policies that govern future industry development and to provide knowledge to help guide successful and sustainable Travel & Tourism investment decisions. For 25 years, WTTC has been quantifying the economic impact of Travel & Tourism. This year, the 2015 Annual Economic Reports cover 184 countries and 25 regions of the world, including, for the first time, the Pacific Alliance. Travel & Tourism generated US$7.6 trillion (10% of global GDP) and 277 million jobs (1 in 11 jobs) for the global economy in 2014. Recent years have seen Travel & Tourism growing at a faster rate than both the wider economy and other significant sectors such as automotive, financial services and health care.

Chief of Mission Priorities The U.S. relationship with Brunei dates back to April 6, 1845 when the USS Constitution, or “Old Ironsides,” arrived in Brunei Bay to start more than 170 years of friendly relations. Five years later, we concluded the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Commerce and Navigation, which is still in effect today. The Mission will focus on further strengthening our security ties, particularly those related to military-to-military cooperation and countering the threats of terrorism and transnational crimes, including assuring Brunei continues to meet the requirements of remaining in the Visa Waiver Program. Brunei’s economy is projected to grow by 8 percent in 2019, reversing several years of decline due to low hydrocarbon prices. This economic rebound should offer new opportunities
