Subject Prospects for South-east Asia in 2019. Significance The early part of next year will feature important elections in some of South-east Asia's major economies. Meanwhile, financial volatility and a trade downturn pose risks to ASEAN economies. ASEAN under Thailand’s chairmanship will aim to advance the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and a Code of Conduct (CoC) for the South China Sea.



Subject Efforts in South-east Asia to reduce reliance on the dollar. Significance The ten ASEAN members and three East Asian states are exploring ways to create buffers against financial volatility. They are considering including the renminbi in their currency swaps. Impacts Integration of production lines will aid acceptance of the renminbi in the ASEAN region. Within a renminbi zone, movements in the renminbi’s value would affect ASEAN currencies. The dollar, regarded as more secure, will remain the most important reserve currency in South-east Asia.
