43 General impressions on the Questions RELATING TO CEPA No Questionnaires (Core Questions) Response (General Impression) 1 Is IORA known by the public? Public and business have little understanding about IORA 2 Is IORA CEPA feasible? All respondents consider discussion about IORA CEPA is too soon. Respondents prefer other form of closer economic cooperation, PTA, Trade Facilitation or Sector Cooperation Respondents convey their concern on economic gap among Does the existing legal infrastructure and economic member countries, and their readiness to engage in closer capacities support the establishment of CEPA or any economic cooperation. Singapore and Malaysia focus more on other regional economic cooperation mechanism? AEC and RCEP Is WTO membership a pre-requirement for CEPA? Note: Iran and Comoros are not parties to WTO The fact that IORA members are bound by different regional groupings, such as SACU, SAARC, COMESA, ECO, GCC, ASEAN of which any of them apply economic policy, will such differences be impeding the establishment of IORA s economic cooperation Respondents are divided on this issue. Respondents in Singapore consider WTO membership is instrumental. On the other hand, respondents in Iran consider Iran s nonmembership of WTO will complicate negotiation of FTA/CEPA, though it is not a fundamental issue. All respondents considered membership to regional groupings, particularly the grouping that involve customs union will complicate negotiation on trade liberalizations. 43
44 Impression from the Fields (1) There is a common view on: 1. The need of a more realistic approach towards closer economic cooperation within IORA 2. The expectation that research would be focused on promoting trade facilitation such as Free Trade Zone Cooperation 3. The need to explore sector cooperation such as mining (Australian respondents), cruise tourism (Iranian respondents), some aspects of blue economy 4. The need to focus more on capacity building to ease economic gaps 44
45 Impression from the Fields (2) 1. Negotiation on Trade Liberalization should be started only with member countries which are ready. 2. ASEAN Economic Community could be used as Model for Economic Integration within IORA. 3. Sector Cooperation can also be used as fundamental for Economic Integration, taking example of European Union. 45
46 Preliminary Proposal for IORA Closer Economic Cooperation Multi Speed and Multi Level Integration Economic Development Facilitation Capacity Building (for LDCs) Trade Facilitation Preferential Trade Agreement (member countries which are ready) Free Trade Agreement (member countries which are ready) Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement Sector Cooperation 46
