ASEAN must push harder for deeper economic integration, with growth in the region tipped to ease in the coming years, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) said in a report released as the 10 leaders of the regional grouping kicked off their 27th summit on Friday.
Titled "Economic Outlook for South-east Asia, China and India 2016 - Enhancing Regional Ties", the annual report said current efforts were still not enough to achieve integration targets, "despite important and positive achievements".
