The document discusses the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) and the role of technology within it. The AEC aims to create a single market and production base through several measures including eliminating tariffs and non-tariff barriers. It also seeks to develop infrastructure projects like economic corridors to facilitate the flow of goods, services, and skilled labor. Technology and e-commerce will be important for the AEC by helping small businesses engage in cross-border trade and allowing for the digital delivery of services between countries. ASEAN members need to prepare their workforce and business sectors for the new digital opportunities and regulations presented by the AEC.
