The AEPR Conference on “Macroeconomic Challenges in ASEAN” was held on September 30, inviting domestic and international experts in person for the first time in four years.The global economy is facing a difficult challenge due to the global inflation caused by the Covid-19 disaster and the Ukraine crisis, as well as the fact that many central banks around the world have raised their policy rates in order to curb the inflation.
ASEAN countries, which are particularly vulnerable to the influence of large economies such as the United States and China, are working to introduce economic policies and various measures to achieve stable economic growth.
At the conference, there was a lively exchange of views on ASEAN’s economic integration, on the effects and problems of individual policies in each country, such as Thailand’s inflation targets, Cambodia’s Central Bank digital currency, and Vietnam’s economic reforms.
Papers submitted to the conference will be added to and revised based on the conference content, reviewed by the editors, and published in July 2024.
