ASEAN countries are undertaking a process of regional integration aimed to build a borderless economic community, and together with Australia, India, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and China, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), the world’s biggest trade agreement, will be created.

Furthermore, the European Union is negotiating trade and investment protection agreements with ASEAN countries, with some of them – such the one with Singapore and Vietnam – expected to come into force
