00:00ASEAN perlu bersikap jujur mengakui kegagalan menunaikan janji integrasi ekonomi serantau dan menghentikan budaya berkata manis terhadap angka perdagangan intra
00:10-ASEAN yang masih rendah.
00:12Demikian tegas pengasas bersama dan pengurusi Ikhlas Capital yang juga bekas pengurusi Madlis Penasihat Perniagaan ASEAN-ASEAN-BEC Malaysia, Tan
00:21Sri Nazir Razak dalam episod sulung ASEANX Forum.
00:25Menurut beliau, Pelan Induk Komuniti Ekonomi ASEAN atau AEC 2007 sebelum ini menjanjikan pangkalan pengeluaran tunggal serta pergerakan bebas modal,
00:35perdagangan dan tenaga mahir menjelang 2015.
00:39Namun sektor korporat yang telah membuat pelaburan besar berdasarkan jangkaan tersebut akhirnya kecewa apabila perlaksanaannya tertangguh dan tidak menepati janji.
00:54In terms of the degree of integration, I think the results, we don't really know because we started off with
01:02the AEC 2007.
01:05It goes way back. The problem started in 2007 when they said by 2015, the ASEAN economic community will be
01:11single production base, free movement of capital, trade, and skilled labor.
01:18So you set that to the private sector, the community in general.
01:26So some of us responded and built around that expectation.
01:30Then came 2015, there was no AEC. They delayed one year.
01:34And then after in 2016, they had a party to celebrate the AEC and it looked nothing like what was
01:39promised.
01:39So ASEAN did not deliver what was promised and you know, firms like CIMB, it was somewhat all dressed up
01:47with nowhere to go.
01:48Yeah, at some expense.
01:50Sementara itu, pengurusi Lembaga Pembangunan Pelaburan Malaysia atau MIDA, Tengku Datuk Seri Zahful Abdul Aziz berkata,
01:58jurang pembangunan ekonomi sehingga 300 kali ganda dari segi KDNK per kapita menyukarkan persaingan pasaran terbuka dilaksanakan secara adil.
02:06Right now, it's like you're playing football, you know, he's Chelsea, I'm Liverpool, right?
02:12So it's not fair. Chelsea is so weak, right?
02:15So you need to have that, well, it's like the Premier League.
02:19If everyone's in the Premier League, then, you know, a second or third division team,
02:23it's not fair to them that they play with a Premier League team.
02:26So when all ASEAN member states is in the same league, then it's easier, I think, to do that business
02:32-like.
02:33It's the same for businesses as well, right?
02:34That's why we have different category of, you know, sizes of business where they get different kind of support.
02:41That's, I think, the problem.
02:43The ASEAN member states are too far in terms of where they are today, economically.
