ASEAN has become an important economic region in this new millennium demonstrating a gross product of US$739 billion and international trading of US$720 billion (in 2006). An efficient and integrated transport network in ASEAN is critical for realizing the full potential of the ASEAN Free Trade Area as well as in enhancing the attractiveness of the region as a single production and investment destination as envisaged under the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC). ASEAN transport is also critical in linking ASEAN with the neighboring Northeast and South Asian countries, in the concept of "two wings" for the region; with China, Japan and Korea in the northeast and India in the south of Asia. The need for strong commitment in the implementation of technological support for the three sectors, namely, automotive, aeronautics and marine is called for. This conference will offer the best platform for the cooperation of Asean scientists and technologists to achieve this common goal.
