Title: | Intra-trade potentials of ASEAN :evidence from gravity model | Authors: | Jobe, Ebrima | Subject: | International trade Southeast Asia -- Commerce Southeast Asia -- Foreign economic relations |
Year: | 2002 | Publisher: | Kuala Lumpur : International Islamic University Malaysia, 2002 | Abstract in English: | In international trade, economic theory has highlighted its composition but delves less into its volume and direction, which are of more political and economic importance to countries. Intra-ASEAN trade is found to be very small. This study endeavors to make a formal analysis of the main determinants of intra-ASEAN bilateral trade and the existence of trade creation or trade diversion. Based on cross-sectional data, the gravity model is estimated for three periodsf; 1985, 1995 and 2000. The results obtained do indicate that intra-ASEAN trade is consistent with the standard gravity model. The inclusion of the ASEAN and APEC dummy variables suggest that trade-creating benefits are emerging amongst ASEAN member countries though APEC is a wider economic grouping. ASEAN countries do have great potentials to enhancing intra-regional trade through further trade liberalization. | Degree Level: | Master | Call Number: | t HF 3868 J62I 2002 | Kullliyah: | Kulliyyah of Economics and Management Sciences | Programme: | Master of Economics | URI: | http://studentrepo.iium.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/3272 | URL: | https://lib.iium.edu.my/mom/services/mom/document/getFile/Ndo81H9aCKarq5bCDonWb0GYiHNsp1wv20150521122001062 |
