Research has tried to refine the legal phenomena of the liberalization of goods and services, known as first generation, in favor of a regional economic integration policy under the influence of globalization, in order to establish the ASEAN Economic Community.

As a result, we have discovered that ASEAN substantive law does exist and continues to develop gradually in the proper sense of international law. Moreover, the administrative as well as jurisdictional institutional mechanisms have been observed, their operation of which is implicated in a pragmatic manner for the implementation of these material rules regarding the free movement of goods and services.
