Introduction
• ASEAN trade value reached nearly US$ 1,500 billion. The market size is growing continuously at the rate of 5-6% per year.
• The deeper ASEAN logistics integration is developed, the greater trade activities among ASEAN countries grow.
• Trade and logistics facilitation play an important role in reducing cost and improving business competitiveness.
• The ASEAN logistics connectivity might be a hurdle that inhibits the members to realize the potentials of ASEAN economic community.
• This paper aims at disclosing the challenges in logistically connecting archipelagic countries with other members and proposing action plans to overcome these challenges.

logistics services
– Creation of an integrated ASEAN logistics environment
• Scope: – To cover freight logistics and transport and trade related
activities
• Status: – For signing at the 39th AEM on 24 August 2007 in Manila

ASEAN Connectivity
• It is estimated that a one percent increase in infrastructure spending in Asia can increase private consumption by one to two per cent of gross domestic product (GDP).
• According to the Asean Logistics Study 2008, the logistics cost of intra-Asean container movements is estimated to be US$2.25 billion a year, with about 55 per cent representing out-of-pocket costs (transport, terminal and access costs) and 45 per cent time costs.
• Implementing a comprehensive logistics infrastructure could reduce average logistics cost by 4 per cent and logistics time by 9 per cent. This is substantial amounting to roughly US$140 million in logistics cost reductions in a year.

Archipelagic Southeast Asia (aSEA)
• Archipelagic Southeast Asia (aSEA) covers five Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member countries—Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore—together with Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Timor-Leste.
• The aSEA region includes the Brunei Darussalam-Indonesia-Malaysia-Philippines East ASEAN Growth Area (BIMP-EAGA) and the Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle (IMT-GT).
• The key to understanding the region lies in an appreciation of its archipelagic nature. aSEA includes more than 24,000 islands spread across 5,200 km from east to west and 3,400 km from north to south. It has a population of over 350 million, 225 million of whom live in Indonesia with a further 87 million living in the Philippines (Green, 2008).

Archipelagic Areas
• Launched in 1993 and 1994, respectively, the IMT-GT (the Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle) and BIMP-EAGA (the Brunei Darussalam-Indonesia-Malaysia-Philippines East ASEAN Growth Area) cooperation programs cover primarily archipelagic areas at the subnational level.
• The IMT-GT includes 32 provinces and states—14 provinces in southern Thailand, 8 northern states of Peninsular Malaysia, and 10 provinces covering the entire island of Sumatra in Indonesia.
• BIMP-EAGA includes the sultanate of Brunei Darussalam; the provinces of Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Maluku, and West Papua in Indonesia; the states of Sabah and Sarawak and the federal territory of Labuan in Malaysia; and provinces in Mindanao region and Palawan in the Philippines.
• Both programs were established to help promote socioeconomic development in less developed and disadvantaged areas by increasing trade, tourism, and investment—backed by an underlying strategy of mobilizing the private sector as engine of growth.
• The IMT-GT supports development of five economic corridors through sector strategies in transport and energy; trade and investment; agriculture; halal products and services; tourism; and human resource development.
• BIMP-EAGA pursues a four-pronged strategy enhancing connectivity, establishing BIMP-EAGA as food basket for ASEAN (and the rest of Asia), promoting BIMP-EAGA as a premier regional tourism destination, and ensuring sustainable management of the environment.

ASEAN Archipelagic Logistics
“More than 80 per cent of freight is transported through the sea in archipelagic ASEAN. With better connectivity, costs and distance can shrink remarkably within ASEAN and beyond”.Pushpanathan (2011)

connectivity by the questionnaire
Viewpoint of ASEAN logistics
connectivity
Viewpoint of driving and
retraining forces
1. Role of Indonesia as an archipelagic country
towards desired change of ASEAN logistics
connectivity:
Create an archipelagic ASEAN network
within ASEAN that can offer cost effective,
reliable and, safer logistics connectivity
that fosters a mutual free flows of goods
and trades.
Members will develop and be engaged in
archipelagic ASEAN network.
2. Current situation of driving forces for ASEAN
logistics connectivity:
Liberalization and facilitation measures in the
area of logistics services
Creation of an integrated ASEAN logistics
environment : infrastructure, institutional
framework, trade flows, logistics services
3. Current situation of restraining forces for ASEAN
logistics connectivity:
Liberalization and facilitation measures in the
area of logistics services
Creation of an integrated ASEAN logistics
environment
4. Common possibility of removal actions in the future

inefficiencies, and lack of key government
leadership
Conflicting interest between regional and central government

Conclusions
• Logistics connectivity provides both opportunities and challenges to ASEAN members.
• Although Indonesia has strategic position for ASEAN, but lack of coordination across business actors and between government agencies.
• The biggest obstacle is how leadership and governance can be developed to improve both soft and hard infrastructures.
• A key finding show the concept of archipelagic logistics chain needs to linking logistics to economic and social development that contribute to a sustainable economic growth.
• The recommendation is expected to narrow development gaps and encourage policy coordination in realizing ASEAN logistics connectivity including actions to develop common logistics infrastructure, inclusive business participation, increasing logistics capacity, and harmonization of regulation.
• Further investment by ASEAN members is needed especially in infrastructure to realize the potential benefits of logistics connectivity to regional and global markets.
