Asean Economic Community

The AEC is the founder of the ASEAN Community and the formation of regional economic integration, which was implemented in 2015. The implementation of ASEAN is made up of the flow of services/goods on a single product and market basis, skilled labour, investment, and free capital flows between countries in the ASEAN region. As an opportunity at the time of employment and as a substitute for unemployment, the Indonesian state must be utilized free of skilled labour. The issues that have arisen are how the employment arrangements in Indonesia are? How to optimize Indonesia’s employment arrangements in the AEC era? The method of approaching this research is the normative juridical method. The research shows that there are arrangements in the field of manpower that help realize quality human resources and skilled labour. It also states that Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and other policies that provide job training and certification of work competencies that optimize employment to be more qualified, skilled, and competitive and recognized by other ASEAN countries in facing the AEC.

Abstract In the ASEAN Economic Community blueprint 2015 the term “single market” was used as a goal of economic community. Theoretically, single market is a level of economic integration after customs union. Under that blueprint, customs union could have a chance to be established as a necessary prerequisite for single market. However, the new blueprint 2025 does not adopt single market concept anymore. Different terms have been introduced namely “integrated and cohesive economy” and “unified market”. This article aims at assessing economic integration concept adopted in the ASEAN Economic Community blueprint by utilizing content analysis. It will review the change of concept by employing economic integration theory in order to indicate the direction of economic community goal. The finding is that the change of terms reflects the change of concept. As a result, ASEAN Economic Community will have a different direction in pursuing economic integration. Therefore, under the new blueprint ASEAN will not proceed to customs union and single market. However, it will remain at free trade area level of economic integration. In addition, ASEAN will not be a close trade block but tend to be an open regionalism in relation to non-ASEAN countries or regions. Keywords: ASEAN Economic Community, Customs Union, Single Market, Economic Integration, Open Regionalism.

AbstractOn 31 December 2015, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) announced the establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC). In theory, this agreement has produced association-wide economic integration. However, following the announcement and for the foreseeable future, ASEAN member states will continue to have significantly less than full regional economic integration. Why? Some observers believe that the AEC plans involve an overly ambitious timeline and too many ill-thought-out initiatives. Others point to ASEAN's traditional aversion to legally binding agreements. While progress has been made in reducing or eliminating intra-ASEAN trade tariffs, substantial non-tariff barriers to trade persist. However, for most member states, the ASEAN market is relatively small, while external markets, especially China, are growing rapidly. Given this outward orientation for ASEAN trade, is the lack of an unhindered regional market really a problem?

As the interdependent global economy increased, ASEAN responded with the creation of ASEAN Economic Community (AEC). The AEC is expected to become the ASEAN arena of learning regional economic integration before entering the global integration. Indonesia, as the largest country in the region, should be a natural leader. However, the level of investment in Indonesia was lost to Singapore and several other ASEAN countries, thus Indonesia should see the potential of the AEC and maximize it to benefit the strengthening of Indonesia's strength. This research aimed to explain the AEC background, the potentials and challenges of the AEC, the AEC 2015 and 2025 comparisons. Using qualitative methods with inductive logical thinking, and constructivism as the analysis framework, the result shows that AEC 2025 is believed to be the integration of the regional economy with a dynamic and sustainable process. Thus, Indonesia can strengthen its position in AEC 2025, using a constructivism approach to reform Indonesian identity into the structure.

Asean Economic Community

Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN adalah salah satu pilar pembentukan Komunitas ASEAN dan merupakan bentuk integrasi ekonomi regional yang mulai di berlakukan pada tahun 2015. Pemberlakuan tersebut akan menjadikan ASEAN sebagai pasar tunggal dan basis produksi dimana terjadi arus barang, jasa, investasi dan tenaga terampil yang bebas serta aliran modal yang bebas antar-negara di kawasan ASEAN. Arus bebas tenaga kerja terampil tersebut harus dimanfaatkan oleh Indonesia sebagai peluang dalam menyerap tenaga kerja dan mengurangi pengangguran. Hal yang menjadi permasalahan adalah bagaimanakah kebijakan pemerintah dalam bidang ketenagakerjaan dalam mempersiapkan tenaga kerja terampil menghadapi Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN 2015. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat berbagai kebijakan dalam bidang ketenagakerjaan yang mendukung terciptanya Sumber Daya Manusia yang berkualitas atau tenaga kerja terampil. Maka dari itu, Undang-Undang Nomor 13 Tahun 2003 tentang Ketenagakerjaan dan berbagai kebijakan lain yang mengamanatkan pemberian pelatihan kerja serta pembentukan Badan Nasional Sertifikasi Profesi yang bertugas memberikan sertifikasi kompetensi kerja harus dioptimalkan, guna mempersiapkan tenaga kerja terampil, berkualitas dan berdaya saing serta diakui oleh negara ASEAN lainnya dalam menghadapi Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN 2015.<p>ASEAN Economic Community is one of the pillars of the establishment of the ASEAN Community which formally as a form of regional economic integration that will enter into force by 2015. This enforcement will make ASEAN as a single market and production based where there are flow of goods, services, investment and skilled labor that is free and free capital flows among ASEAN member countries. Free flow of skilled labor should be used by Indonesia as an opportunity to absorb employment and reducing unemployment. The issue of this subject is how the government policy in the field of labor in preparing skilled labour in facing the ASEAN Economic Community 2015. By using the method of juridical normative research can be concluded that there are a variety of employment policies supporting the creation of high quality human resources or skilled labor.Thus, Law of Republic of Indonesia Number 13 year 2003 on Employment and another regulations that mandate the provision of vocational training and the establishment of the National Professional Certification which in charge of certifying the competence of work must be optimized in order to prepare skilled labour, high quality and having competitiveness and recognized by the other ASEAN countries in facing the ASEAN Economic Community 2015.</p>

The ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) challenges in education that will be faced are the proliferation o f foreign educational institutions, standardization of orientation in education, which is pro - market, and markets labor that will be flooded by foreign workers. Therefore, the era of ASEAN free trade should be welcomed by the world of education quickly, so that the human resources (HR) of Indonesia, especially by women who still have low resource. They should be prepared for facing an intense competition with other countries.  ASEAN countries have considered synchronizing the certification standards, streng thening, and improving the skills and knowledge of ASEAN youth and women in the regional integration process.

Era Globalisasi saat sekarang ini telah menjadi kenyataan yang menyatukan seluruh negara di dunia ini melalui aktifitas ekonomi, ilmu pengetahauan dan teknologi, politik, dan sosial budaya. Salah satu dampak globalisasi adalah munculnya Regional Economic Integration diberbagai belahan dunia ini salah satunya adalah Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN (MEA). Kelanjutan komitmen seluruh negara ASEAN setelah memasuki MEA 2015 adalah MEA 2025. Cetak biru 2025 bertujuan meningkatkan kualitas integrasi dan pertumbuhan ekonomi di kawasan. Peningkatan integrasi ini akan dilakukan melalui lima Pilar MEA 2025 yaitu (1) Ekonomi ASEAN yang terintegrasi dan kohesif; (2) ASEAN yang kompetitif dan dinamis; (3) peningkatan konektivitas dan kerja sama sektoral; (4) ASEAN yang tangguh, inklusif, dan berorientasi serta fokus ke masyarakat; serta (5) ASEAN Global. Hal yang sungguh memprihatinkan adalah persoalan sosialisasi dan edukasi yang kurang gencar sehingga para stakeholders atau pemangku kepentingan banyak yang tidak mengetahui secara jelas berbagai skim perdagangan bebas tersebut. Sehingga, dengan demikian tidak ada persiapan matang menghadapi kompetisi bebas dalam MEA itu. Baru menjelang saat dilaksanakan kita kerja keras menyiapkan diri, sementara sebagian pesaing kita sudah jauh didepan dengan berbagai strategi untuk memenangkan atau mendapatkan keuntungan terbesar dari keterbukaan atau integrasi ekonomi yang terjadi.

Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dalam perekonomian yang terintegrasi penuh yang memungkinkan pergerakan input dan output secara bebas, maka proporsi output dalam perekonomian akan sama dengan proporsi input produktif (yakni physical dan human capital). Ini kami sebut sebagai hubungan proporsional (equal-share relationship).Hubungan ini juga berlaku ketika terdapat perbedaan teknologi atau perbedaan biaya pergerakan input lintas sektor dengan syarat input dan output ini diukur dengan benar dalam merefleksikan perbedaan biaya tersebut. Dalam suatu perekonomian yang terintegrasi, hubungan proporsional ini membatasi distribusi input dan output. Selain itu, hubungan proporsional ini sekaligus memberikan batasan pengambilan kebijakan yang dapat mempengaruhi perkembangan setiap sektor dalam perekonomian yang terintegrasi penuh. Disini investasi memainkan peranan kunci dalam menentukan distribusi produksi.Dengan aplikasi teknik analisis panel pada data negara ASEAN, penelitian ini menelusuri dampak kebijakan moneter terhadap investasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: (i) bank sentral melalui kebijakan moneternya memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kinerja investasi, (ii) inflasi yang rendah dan stabilitas perekonomian secara signifikan meningkatkan investasi. Menyongsong terbentuknya ASEAN Economic Community, temuan ini menegaaskan peran penting bank sentral dalam meningkatkan investasi.JEL Classification: E13, F15, F21, F22, O57Keywords:distribusi produksi, pertumbuhan, mobilitas input, kebijakan moneter, integrasi, ASEAN

AbstractIn early 2016 the ASEAN countries have officially implement the commitments which named the Asean Economic Community (AEC). The spirit of the stretcher is the spirit of ASEAN economic integration. In the MEA of skilled labor in the region is given the freedom to work anywhere in the ASEAN region. However, each country still has licensing restrictions. Law No. 13 of 2003 be the main pillars that govern the licensing of foreign workers, especially in Chapter VIII started to subsection 42 through subsection 49. That should be of concern is subsection 45 paragraph (1a) requires manpower Indonesian citizen who becomes the companion of foreign. The presence of foreign workers in the MEA era is no longer in the context of knowledge transfer and technology transfer, but TKA comes with the spirit of ASEAN economic integration. Or in other words the freedom to work wherever the foreign workers want to work. Employers of foreign workers required to implement the education and training for workers who become facilitators TKA. But employers are reluctant. Because, there are loopholes in our licensing that would allow foreign workers to work continuously in Indonesia. By regulation, of course, the implementation of the MEA are now in violation of the contents of Law 13/2003 on Manpower. Another major problem associated MEA is the readiness of Indonesian Labor competence and the availability of jobs for Indonesian workers. Keywords: Foreign Workers, AEC, Economic Integration AbstrakDi awal Tahun 2016 Negara-negara ASEAN sudah resmi melaksanakan komitmen bersama yang bernama Masyarakat Ekonomi Asean (MEA). Semangat yang di usung adalah semangat integrasi ekonomi ASEAN. Di dalam MEA tenaga kerja terampil yang ada di kawasan ini di berikan kebebasan untuk berkerja di mana saja di kawasan ASEAN. Namun masing-masing negara tetap memiliki batasan perizinan. UU Nomor 13 Tahun 2003 menjadi pilar utama yang mengatur perizinan TKA terutama di Bab VIII mulai Pasal 42 sampai dengan Pasal 49. Yang harus menjadi perhatian adalah Pasal 45 ayat (1a) yang mewajibkan adanya tenaga kerja warga negara Indonesia yang menjadi pendamping. Kehadiran TKA di era MEA ini tidak lagi dalam konteks alih pengetahuan (transfer of knowledge) dan alih tehnologi (transfer of technology), tetapi TKA hadir dengan dengan semangat integrasi ekonomi ASEAN. Atau dengan kata lain kebebasan bekerja dimanapun TKA tersebut ingin bekerja. Pengusaha pengguna TKA wajib melaksanakan pendidikan dan pelatihan bagi TKI yang menjadi tenaga pendamping TKA. Namun pengusaha seringkali enggan. Pasalnya, ada celah dalam perizinan kita yang menungkinkan TKA bisa bekerja terus di Indonesia. Secara regulasi, tentunya pelaksanaan MEA saat ini sudah melanggar isi UU 13/2003 tentang Ketenagakerjaan. Masalah utama lain terkait MEA adalah kesiapan kompetensi Tenaga Kerja Indonesia dan ketersediaan lapangan kerja buat pekerja Indonesia. Kata Kunci: TKA, MEA, integrasi ekonomi
