Abstract
Economic integration through the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) establishes a new level of supranational organization among ASEAN member states, thereby requiring them to conform to certain requirements. As a mark of its willingness to liberalise, Thailand secured membership to the AEC by taking on a package of trade obligations. This article provides a discussion of how the economic integration through AEC may affect trade relations in Thailand. In essence, it examines impacts and prospects of forming AEC on Thailand’s socio-economic development.
