Realities and Reflection of the subject International Business (End of Semester Consideration)

Writing this blog at the end of the semester depicts the realities and the problems of the ASEAN region to come.  The given text discussed the 6 important roles of government in the years to come in terms of International Business.  Both private and government sectors are going to face the challenges like climate change, energy consumption, environmental damage, poverty, malnutrition, & Food security.

Around the ASEAN region today progressive insights and business planning are bursting from one FDI company to another. Money is overflowing as well as the business ventures and plan.  But thinking towards the whole framework of the International Business role of ASEAN, are we ready to face the 6 challenges of International Business?

One disturbing issue that I’m sure would be a hindrance to the business success of ASEAN countries is the human resource.  Knowing that Human Resource’s eligibility reflects from the educational framework of the given ASEAN countries.  As to our class discussion, even though ASEAN region is having a lot of money from investors and a lot of multinational companies are investing; the actual people who will execute the actual work for the prosperity of the region is not in place.  

As such, the possibility of the continued predictions of the 6 main challenges of climate change, energy consumption, environmental damage, poverty, malnutrition, & Food security is still possible in ASEAN countries this coming 2015 and beyond.  Governments in ASEAN region must act not in a “slow motion” anymore but to act radically to steal the chance of saving the ASEAN region as the hub of International Business from Europe down to Central Asia and ASEAN.

With the 6 main challenges of International Business, based from the opinions of my students and the text reference, government intervention using policy and International Law revisions are necessary.
