Abstract

Trade relations between Burma and its ASEAN neighbours have existed since the earliest days of Burma's history. Trade has been growing rapidly during the last twelve years although the level of official trade, by international standards, is very low. This generally low level of trade may be attributed to a complex of factors in the contemporary history and political economy of Burma and ASEAN countries which have influenced the degree of openness of their economies and thus to trade. This study explores and analyses the trade relations between ASEAN countries and Burma. It raises the issue of whether the economies of the ASEAN nations and Burma are competitive or complementary. It also explores the future prospects of trade and counter-trade.
