The overall objective of the movement of natural persons (MNP) in the ASEAN region is to contribute to expanding trade in services and to deepening economic integration. However, the regional movement of human resources has proceeded beyond the expansion of trade and has persisted in response to labor market imbalances. Thus, movement of workers in the region can be viewed from two perspectives: trade negotiations and labor market disparities. This paper aims to describe the measures addressed by ASEAN and its Member Countries in expanding the movement of human resources under multilateral and regional trade agreements and by responding to labor market asymmetries.
