At the end of 2015 the Asean Economic Community agreement came into effect which means that there will be a single ASEAN market and production base that has five basic elements, namely a) free flow of goods, b) free flow of services services), c) free flow of investment, d) free flow of capital, and e) free flow of skilled labor. In addition to the five basic elements, the single market and production base must also contain two important components, namely priority integration sectors (PIS) and the development of the food, agriculture and forestry sectors. In terms of the free flow of labor, not all workers can compete, the ASEAN economic community limits only to skilled workers. Through the 2015 ASEAN economic community, there will be job opportunities throughout ASEAN. Job seekers can easily enter and exit from one country to another without any obstacles from the recipient country. However, the ASEAN Economic Community Blueprint limits only to skilled labor and there is no discussion about unskilled labor. In an effort to support the transfer of skilled workers, all ASEAN member countries signed an MRA (Mutual Recognition Arrangement) on November 19, 2007 consisting of 8 MRAs, including engineering services, architectural services, nurse services ( nursing services), medical practitioners, dental practitioners, accountants services, surveying services, and tourism professionals. So it is feared that Indonesian workers do not compete with foreign workers

We study cross-country differences in the aggregate production function when skilled and unskilled labor are imperfect substitutes. We find that there is a skill bias in cross-country technology differences. Higher-income countries use skilled labor more efficiently than lower-income countries, while they use unskilled labor relatively and, possibly, absolutely less efficiently. We also propose a simple explanation for our findings: rich countries, which are skilled-labor abundant, choose technologies that are best suited to skilled workers; poor countries, which are unskilled-labor abundant, choose technologies more appropriate to unskilled workers. We discuss alternative explanations, such as capital-skill complementarity and differences in schooling quality.

Nonetheless, not every country could follow the wave of free trade without imposing protection assessment such anti-dumping measures. This paper tries to identify the possibility impacts of free flow of goods scheme on the use of anti­dumping in Indonesia.

Salah satu tujuan utama dari pembentukan Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN (MEA) adalah menciptakan perdagangan yang bebas dari hambatan. Namun demikian, tidak semua negara dapat mengikuti gelombang perdagangan bebas tanpa menerapkan kebijakan perlindungan dalam negeri seperti ketentuan anti-dumping. Tulisan ini mencoba untuk mengidentifikasi kemungkinan efek dari peredaran barang yang bebas dalam (MEA) terhadap penggunaan kebijakan anti-dumping di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan analisis isi, tulisan ini menyimpulkan bahwa kemungkinan efek tersebut dapat menjadikan penggunaan kebijakan anti-dumping di Indonesia meningkat atau menurun, dan juga kemungkinan penghilangan kebijakan antidumping serta menggantikannya dengan kebijakan persaingan usaha.

This study discusses how the free movement of skilled labor policy under the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) scenario enhances opportunities for labor mobility from low-skilled labor countries, what challenges will be faced, and how this policy impacts their economies. The implementation of the AEC’s free movement of skilled labor policy is projected to face challenges such as mismatched labor qualifications, fulfilling ASEAN commitment, time for implementation of ASEAN commitments, and controlling the flow of illegal migrant workers. However, ASEAN leaders already set some supporting policies to overcome challenges from this system by improving labor market information, encouraging language and skills training, managing government and public supports, expanding mutual recognition arrangements and enhancing social protection for migrant workers. If these supporting policies can be implemented, the AEC’s free movement of skilled labor policy will improve the quality of human resources in ASEAN, especially from lower-middle income countries including Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Thailand. As the results, those six countries are expected to increase the high-skilled employment rates by 0.3 to 1.4 percent and the wage rates up to 10-20 percent in 2025. Thus, the projected increases in the employment and wage rates of ASEAN skilled labor will induce an expansion of the ASEAN economic growth to 7.1 percent in 2025.

This article explains about the dilemma which will be faced by Indonesia when the the MutualRecognition Arrangement (MRA) is implemented in the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC)by the end of 2015. The data which will be used to describe the existing condition of the human resources competitiveness in Indonesia in this article is the secondary data, such as Human Development Index (HDI); World Knowledge Competitiveness Index (WKCI); Global KnowledgeCompetitiveness Index (GKCI); Global Talent Competitiveness Index (GTCI); Global InnovationIndex (GII); and The Networked Readiness Index. Where upon, these indices will be used asthe guidance to compare the human resources quality in Indonesia with Singapore, Malaysia,Thailand, and the other ASEAN countries.Based on the data analysis, these indices show thatIndonesian human resources are still far left behind in terms of competition with the other threeASEAN countries. It is feared that the weak competitiveness of human resources in Indonesiamay cause the infl ux of the foreign skilled workers in more signifi cant numberas a consequenceof the implementation of MRA.
