Asian leaders originally agreed to hold an EAS in a mid- to long term plan for ASEAN+3 framework. However, as major countries in the region compete for the leadership, a sudden decision was made to launch the EAS earlier than expected and to invite Australia, New Zealand and India to the Summit. These unexpected developments drew much attention to the future scope and timetable of East Asian Community. Against this backdrop, Korea Institute for International Economic Policy (KIEP) invited prominent speakers to open a seminar on Korea's Perspectives on the First East Asia Summit on November 14th, 2005.

ReferencesSummaryThe 2005 review of progress towards free and open trade and investment offers APEC leaders the opportunity to give the process new purpose and direction.The mid-term stocktake of the Bogor goals demonstrates that, since 1994, APEC economies have moved significantly closer to the vision of free and open trade and investment. Average tariffs are considerably lower, often at or close to zero. There are now only a few quantitative restrictions on trade. People and capital are moving more freely around the region. More efficient customs procedures, progress towards paperless trading, mutual recognition of standards and other practical arrangements to facilitate trade and investment are already saving billions of dollars per year.

ReferencesSummaryAPEC can be proud of some solid achievements since it was founded in 1989, but now is a very useful time to evaluate the precise nature of its contributions and to attempt to define a new vision for the organisation. There is now only five years until 2010, by which time the developed economies have agreed to meet their Bogor goals. There is a further 10 years until the developing economies are supposed to have reached a similar goal, but in many cases there is still a great deal to do before reaching that standard. So, there is some urgency about the matter, and this is reflected in the creation of the mid-term review process within APEC. (The rest is omitted.)< -

The hard work, the benefits of latecomer status and effective industrial policy that brought our country to the level of a developed economy are no longer adequate for competition in the future. For the last 10 years, technology industrialization has become a key element of competitiveness like the quality of workforce and capital because it has been proved one of the most important determinants of nation's productivity and economic growth.

ReferencesSummaryThis paper investigates how well the financial markets in East Asia are integrated with each other and compare the degree of this regional integration with the degree of integration between East Asian markets and the US market. We use three approaches: volume-based approach, asset price-based approach, and international risk sharing approach. Our results indicate that the degree of financial integration in East Asia has been recently increased, but our overall results suggest that it is due to the integration with a global market rather than regional integration.
