According to the OECD, the ASEAN countries as a whole will continue to grow on average at 5.5% between 2013-2018, driven by an expanding middle class, domestic consumption and public investments. No wonder then that the good economic prospects increasingly attract foreign investment - argues dr Surin Pitsuwan (pictured), who served as secretary general of ASEAN countries between 2008 and 2012, and who has visited Warsaw this week.
