Outline
The aim of this study is to construct comparable and comprehensive database on FTAs in this region by investigating articles of concluded agreements of ASEAN FTAs with the dialogue partner countries and bilateral FTAs between ASEAN countries and other East Asian countries in order to serve as a knowledge base of mapping for efficient FTAs strategy and the region-wide FTA architecture in this region. This study is distinguished from several existing FTA stocktaking studies by providing comparable and quantitatively-analyzable database of commitments and indices of the liberalization of FTAs.
