KUALA LUMPUR, June 1 – Connectivity plays a vital part in unleashing the economic potential of ASEAN, said Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai. He said, recognising this, ASEAN members had come up with the ASEAN Transport Strategic Plan 2016-2025 which was concluded last year in Kuala Lumpur to transform the region into a high growth centre through infrastructure development. The minister said the plan complements the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) initiative which is aimed at uniting the region’s economy and increase intra-trade.
