The ASEAN Connectivity is an integral part of building the ASEAN Community. Strong connectivity in terms of infrastructure, institutions and people interactions is necessary to realize an integrated ASEAN Community.
ASEAN aims for a competitive and resilient region where peoples, goods, services and capital are brought closer together. Together, ASEAN aims to connect more than 600 million people, or around 9% of the world’s population in a land area covering over 4.46 million cubic kilometres, which covers 3% of the earth’s land mass. We also aim to connect an ocean around three times larger than the land.
