DAVOS , Jan 19 — As the fastest growing trade bloc in the world, Asean needs both public and private sector involvement to make its supply chain seamless and take full advantage of its potential.
“Of course, we are still trying to ride out of the pandemic, especially the supply chain and we need to ensure that it is not just government initiatives. “Ports in Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia, the freight service and trucks must resolve issues more efficiently and productively. We know what the challenges are, the manpower challenges, system, standard, energy as well as sustainability,” he added.“I think for Asean as a whole there are a lot of opportunities. We are the fastest-growing bloc in the world. The population is 660 million.
Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut B. Pandjaitan, told the forum that Asean is confident of navigating the global headwinds and staying on the growth path. “We only compete in trade. We don’t have any differences in politics or intervene with each other,” the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Health of Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, told the same forum. “If you look geographically at the formation of Asean countries, we are the only region that connects the West with the East. Nobody could pierce through the eastern hemisphere without passing through the Asean region.
