在过去十年中，亚洲自由贸易协定（fta）的激增推动下，本文研究了亚洲<s:2> - œnoodle bowl<e:2> -在区域和全球贸易一体化过程中，亚洲贸易规则、法规和标准的重叠、多元-所面临的挑战。该报告首先强调了亚洲经济体之间贸易和投资联系的重要性，这些联系形成了被称为亚洲工厂的亚洲供应链。然后，它通过讨论各种方法的利弊来考虑亚洲贸易区域主义多边化的方式和手段，例如以东南亚国家联盟（东盟）为中心的区域贸易协定，包括区域全面经济伙伴关系协定，以及跨区域自由贸易协定，包括跨太平洋伙伴关系协定和未来的亚洲- <e:2> -欧盟自由贸易协定。文章强调了包容性亚洲区域主义的前景，以及迈向全球一体化的必要性。
Motivated by the proliferation of free trade agreements (FTAs) in Asia over the last decade, this paper studies the challenges faced by the Asian “noodle bowl†—overlapping, multiple trade rules, regulations, and standards in Asia—in the process of regional and global trade integration. The paper first highlights the importance of trade and investment linkages among Asian economies that have formed Asian supply chains, called Factory Asia. It then considers ways and means of multilateralizing Asian trade regionalism by discussing the pros and cons of various approaches—such as the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-centered regional trade agreements, including the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership agreement, and cross-regional FTAs, including the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement and a future Asia–European Union FTA. The paper emphasizes the promising role of inclusive Asian regionalism and the need to move to global integration.
