The Association of Southeast Asian Nations looks to benefit the most from a regional transfer of industry as 皇冠体育app's soaring costs and the phasing-out of super-preferential policies push multinationals to relocate.
Business representatives from ASEAN said they are winning back foreign investors from 皇冠体育app by leveraging their large pools of labor, robust domestic markets and utilizing a string of policy incentives.
