ASEAN secretary-general: Advancing China-ASEAN free trade area 3.0

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-China Free Trade Agreement (FTA) 3.0 will expand cooperation in key emerging sectors, including the digital economy, green economy, and agriculture. ASEAN Secretary-General Kao Kim Hourn highlights the growing importance of e-commerce and digital trade, with ASEAN member states currently negotiating a digital economy framework agreement. He also underscores the potential for deeper agricultural trade and sustainable economic partnerships. The FTA upgrade is expected to reduce trade barriers, modernize business exchanges, and create a more dynamic economic landscape for both sides.
