Leaders of the ten members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) signed a major document on the "formal establishment of the ASEAN Community" on Dec 31, 2015, a milestone in the process of regional integration.
东盟10国领导人签署了关于今年12月31日正式建立东盟共同体的重要文件。该文件是实现区域一体化进程的里程碑。
2003年10月,第九届东盟峰会首次提出建设东盟共同体目标,由东盟经济共同体(the ASEAN Economic Community)、东盟安全共同体(the ASEAN Political and Security Community)和东盟社会文化共同体(the ASEAN Socio-Cultural Community)三部分组成。但只有东盟经济共同体(economic community)才能带来区域经济一体化的切实机会(concrete opportunities)。东盟国家的国内生产总值(GDP)合计可位列全球第七名。
主持峰会的马来西亚总理纳吉布指出:“实际上,我们已经基本消除了东盟各国间的贸易壁垒(tariff barriers)。现在我们必须确保更加自由的环境,并去除妨碍增长与投资(hindering growth and investment)的壁垒。”
The countries of the regional bloc aim to harmonise economic strategies, recognise each other's professional qualifications, and consult more closely on macroeconomic and financial policies.
东盟各国希望协调经济策略,彼此承认专业资格认证,并就宏观经济和金融政策展开更紧密的磋商。
他们还同意提升各国间交通基础设施(transportation infrastructure )和通讯的互联互通(connectivity),进一步促进电子交易(electronic transactions),推动行业一体化以促进地区内部采购,并提升民间行业(private-sector)参与经济活动的程度。
该地区内八类专业行业机构将可更加自由地展开工作(working more easily throughout the region),包括工程师、建筑师、护士、医生、牙医、会计、检验员(surveyors)和旅游业专业人士(tourism professionals)。
东盟成立于1967年,成员国包括印度尼西亚(Indonesia)、泰国(Thailand)、新加坡(Singapore)、菲律宾(the Philippines)、文莱(Brunei)、马来西亚(Malaysia)、越南(Vietnam)、老挝(Laos)、柬埔寨(Cambodia)和缅甸(Myanmar)10个国家。
