    SOUTH-EAST Asia is the top destination for mergers, acquisitions and investments in the next two years, according to a new poll of business leaders in the Asia-Pacific.

    Sixty-nine per cent of survey respondents said that their companies were likely to hunt for opportunities in Asean - outstripping the 59 per cent preference for domestic investments, and head and shoulders above South Asia, which came in third at 39 per cent.
