Air transport has been playing an important role in accelerating the integration of the economies of countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The introduction of a visa-free exemption agreement in 2006 and the ratification of the semi-ASEAN open skies agreement in 2016 have stimulated intra-ASEAN travel and trade. However, since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has demolished most of the efforts when tight border controls returned and flights were suspended. The ASEAN countries were criticised for a lack of coordination over the pandemic. This article examines the ASEAN air transport policies in response to the global pandemic. The data were collected from official government documents, international databases and local media reports to identify the pattern of the air transport policy implemented by each ASEAN member. This article provides insights into the impact of intra-regional travel on the recovery and resilience of the air transport industry in the ASEAN region.

This study explores the element which enhances trade flows for selected Commonwealth countries in the Caribbean and Pacific regions. The results suggest that income (gross domestic product) growth as significant support for trade flows, regional trade integrations of the Pacific and Caribbean are explained in its quiet dynamism, worth strengthening and further reforming. This study, by means of a comparative investigation of selected countries from within the Pacific and the Caribbean regions, proposes that the strategy for enhancing trade integration is creating demand for diversification in the region through greater regional integration. The estimates demonstrate that the level of diversification positively impacted the regions’ bilateral export, having the Pacific region influenced almost twice as much like the Caribbean. Moreover, whilst understanding that the geographical location of the Caribbean already lets its states thrive through lower trading costs as compared to the Pacific, analysis in the study shows that the distance, remoteness and logistics difficulties inflate the price (or trade costs) limiting the success of regional trade agreements.

Climate Change and Trade Facilitation: Estimating Greenhouse Gas Emission Savings from Implementation of Cross-Border Paperless Trade in Asia and the Pacific 气候变化与贸易便利化:估算亚太地区实施跨境无纸化贸易节省的温室气体排放

While economic benefits associated with paperless trade facilitation are well known, little attention has been paid to measuring the potential environmental benefits. Accordingly, this article sets out to quantify the amount of greenhouse gas emissions that could be saved if all trade-related paper documents in the region are ultimately replaced by digital documents and data exchange, as foreseen in the regional framework agreement. This is carried out by combining detailed descriptions of trade transactions, data on trading volumes and relevant emission factors. Even with conservative assumptions, the emissions saved by fully digitalising a single end-to-end trade transaction are equivalent to planting 1.5 trees. For the Asia-Pacific, this implies savings of about 13 million tons of CO2e annually, equivalent to the carbon absorbed by 400 million trees. The results are driven by efficiency gains from handling data digitally rather than by the direct savings of paper and ink.

It adds immense coverage of the AAGC project to the available literature by means of a wide variety of information coupled with perspectives on offer, courtesy the Book’s many distinguished writers. This is a boon for the Book’s prospective readership. The Book, as can be expected from the single outstanding publication available on the topic, is an intellectually awakening read on the AAGC. The writers have shared ample, vital and welcome insights on the topic. They have strived to join the dots between the AAGC and historical Asian–African maritime connections through trade, commerce, migration, influence, historical people-to-people contacts and other such factors. With respect to the above review of the Book and its rather interesting contents, Asia-Africa Growth Corridor is a recommended read for a wide variety of scholars, researchers, authors, academics, topical enthusiasts and casual readers. For those engaged in research work on Africa, India, Japan, infrastructure, connectivity, development and cooperation, the Book serves as a valuable reference, guide and handbook for their endeavours. Much information can be gained from Asia-Africa Growth Corridor: Development and Cooperation in Indo-Pacific that is unavailable otherwise and will inevitably and decisively aid new and ongoing research work in this domain, despite its few but noticeable drawbacks. AAGC is, therefore, an engrossing and enlightening read on one of the world’s major regional developmental and multi-nation projects.","PeriodicalId":188097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asian Economic Integration","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127671426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
