To assess the current status of RCEP at the beginning of 2022, the Trade, Training and Research Institute (TTRI) of the Ministry of Commerce, Kingdom of Cambodia, in collaboration with the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (ERIA) held a hybrid workshop and launched a book titled ‘Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP): Implications, Challenges, and Future Growth of East Asia and ASEAN’ as part of the side-event of Cambodia’s ASEAN Chairmanship. The workshop discussed the structure of the RCEP in terms of the complexity of the RCEP commitments, modalities, and mechanisms. The book underlines some key features of the agreement and analyses how these could strengthen regional integration.
