ASEAN will focus on the removal of non-tariff barriers in four sectors this year, Asean Business Advisory Council Malaysia chairman Tan Sri Munir Majid has said. He identified the sectors as agrifood, healthcare, logistics and retail, including e-commerce. “We are working very hard to make sure that the private sector participates in working groups to address problems in the prioritised four sectors,” he told a media conference on the Asean Economic Community: Progress and Achievements in Kuala Lumpur in early May.
