AEC

Nowadays, AESAN had opened. ASEAN is quite similar to Europe

because it is the ten countries in south east Asia which are

Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam,

Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, and Brunei stay together as a one big

community in Asia. Therefore, the concept of AEC, APSC, and ASCC

is used in ASEAN to make the economic better also to manage and

govern ASEAN. APSC (ASEAN Political and Security Community) is

used as a international laws in ASEAN to govern and manage things.

ASC(Asean Social-Cultural Community) is about taking care of the

culture in ASEAN because ASEAN contain a lot of countries also in

the future other country will join ASEAN too, so in each country

they have different couture and religion. Therefore, this system

will be used to solve the problem that related about culture and

religion. AEC(ASEAN economic community) is the plan for ASEAN

country to make the economic better to make the livelihood of the

citizen better. In my opinion, the concept of AEC going to make

the economic in ASEAN better because of the free trade area, ASEAN

passport, and ASEAN Political and Security Community. Moreover,

ASEAN has EU as the example of these system, so it will be success

because one of the most powerful country like .

Firstly, free trade area in ASEAN will make the economic

better. Free trade area is the agreement that will support local

manufacturing in all ASEAN countries by decreasing the tax and

tariff that will increase the price of the goods. Therefore, each

countries in ASEAN might gain more percent of export the product

and gain profit. Moreover, this will improve the livelihood in

every countries because when economic is good the citizen will

have a job, so they will have more income and that will make the

economic in that country better because there are money that is

in the economic of the country. Nevertheless, this agreement is

used for some of the raw material and some other product that

rerates to agriculture, electronic, transportation, and etc only.

Compare to the EU, they enable European businesses to compete more

effectively and export more to countries and regions outside the

EU by removing or cutting customs duties, and allowing EU

businesses to provide services and bid for public contracts. Also

it work and make the economic in the EU better.

Secondly, the ASEAN passport will help the economic of the

ASEANs country. ASEAN passport is the passport for ASEANs

citizen, so this passport will allow the ASEANs citizen can stay

longer than they normally do. Moreover, some country do not need

any Visa to stay in their country. For example, Thailand and 2.

Furthermore, this make the business man work easier when they do

the business in another country because they have more time for

the consumer to think and decide to sign the agreement. Also it

increase the tourism in every country because the tourists can

stay longer than they normally do, so that cause a lot of income

for that country. Comparing to EU, They created the passport that
allow their citizen to have the right of free movement or

passport that allow their citizen to travel around the European

Economic area, so it almost same as ASEAN. This passport might be

one of the biggest factor that will grow the economic in ASEAN

community because it makes the process of travel easier.

Finally, ASEAN Political and Security Community will help the

economic in ASEAN better. ASEAN Political and Security Community

is a law for Security Political in ASEAN country to make the ASEAN

safe from rioters. Therefore, ASEAN is safe from the rioters and

that makes the business man and the tourists come in ASEAN because

it is safe for them to visit, so that make they trust in all the

ASEAN country. Moreover, it is benefit for the ASEAN member too

because they also be safe too. According to Political and Security

committee of the EU, The PSC is composed of member states'

ambassadors based in Brussels and is chaired by the

representatives from the European External Action Service. It

meets twice a week, and more often if necessary to keep the

Political and Security stable and easier to govern because it is

not one country that they need to govern, so the PSC will be the

one to take care of it. Therefore, the Political and Security

Community will manage everything that relate to Political and

Security in ASEAN. Moreover, after China and Japan join ASEAN our

community will be stronger and powerful because of Political and

Security manage thing and make it easier to govern a lot of

country.
 In conclusion, ACE will make ASEAN economic better because of

the free trade area, ASEAN passport, and ASEAN Political and

Security Community. As I research about the EU, if ASEAN walk in

the same way that EU did, it will make the economic, livelihood of

the citizen better. Because of all the result that EU had prove

that this system will work, so when we applied to ASEAN it will be

better. Moreover, in the future other powerful countries like

China and Japan will be the part of ASEAN, so it will be the big

community that we have the big country like China that will be

come the big support us and ASEAN will have Japan to manage

everything and make all of the system work better. Also if it be

like that ASEAN might be better, and powerful than Eu.
