Abstract

This paper is an overview of the imbalance of economic and social development in ASEAN. Social development must be viewed as an end in itself and not just a means for attaining economic growth. Growing socioeconomic inequality often triggers crime and political and civil unrest. It discusses the evolution of socio-economic imbalances in ASEAN. Then it analyzes the causes of the imbalance and the policy and actions taken by ASEAN countries.
