ASEAN Countries Returning to Pre-crisis Growth

18 May 2011

The six major ASEAN countries have rebounded from the global economic crisis, with medium-term growth prospects returning to pre-crisis levels, according to the OECD (the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) Development Centre's 2010 Southeast Asian Economic Outlook.

With economic recovery underway across the region, GDP growth will average 6% annually across the ASEAN-6 countries over the 2011-15 period, which is about the same level as the period 2003-07.*
