The document discusses opportunities and challenges for education with ASEAN integration in 2015. It outlines the ASEAN vision of establishing a single market to allow free flow of goods, services, capital and people. This presents opportunities for education like more choices for students and employment for teachers across ASEAN countries. It also benefits distance education by providing wider student bases and incomes for universities. However, challenges include harmonizing education standards across countries and developing technical skills for distance learning. Overall, ASEAN integration can translate opportunities in education into economic gains, but also requires addressing challenges like institutional organization and developing online learning facilitation skills.
