Abstract

The ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) as an economic organization is to develop a single market and develop production to serve Asia-the fastest growing economy in the world. Supply and distribution are the major challenges of operations related to the limitations of logistics and transportation. While with 310 million ton of CO2 emissions, transport in ASEAN is a significant contributor to global CO2 emissions and the transport sector has the second highest share of total final energy consumption in the ASEAN region. This chapter has purpose to investigate how to unlock these two situations. Due to requiring high investment for economic and sustainable infrastructure development ASEAN country members should open and invite international financial sources and investors. They should also decline the obstacles. Therefore policy package of this study will focus on economic and management tools to support business and promoting sustainable energy source and technologies-related to transport.
