The Development of Regulatory Management Systems in East Asia: Deconstruction, Insights, and Fostering ASEAN's Quiet Revolution

As H.E. Deputy Minister Rizal Lukman of Indonesia said in 2015: 'The emergence of the ASEAN Economic Community is putting the pressure on each ASEAN Member State (AMS) to accelerate the bureaucratic, administrative and regulatory reforms needed to ensure its competitiveness both in Southeast Asia and globally...Developing good regulatory practices and regulatory coherence both at the border and within the individual country is essential to generate significant growth that is inclusive and equally distributed.'

Towards this end, this volume examines the role of regulatory management systems (RMSs), deconstructs the evolution of the RMS in selected Asia-Pacific countries, determine the RMS elements that give most value, and draws lessons and insights in the use of RMS. The volume concludes by presenting recommendations for improving the regulatory coherence in each AMS and for fostering ASEAN's Quiet Revolution of Good Regulatory Practice.
