Background:

Asia Pacific is forecast to become the largest transport infrastructure market in the world.

Infrastructure development is crucial to improving connectivity and driving sustainable growth in ASEAN. It is important to identify the changing needs of each of these countries in order to leverage future opportunities and trends in infrastructure investments in the region.

Among the ASEAN countries, Indonesia, Vietnam and Philippines have historically had the largest share of transport infrastructure projects. Governments in the region have identified transport infrastructure to be of strategic importance for their economic development and trade competitiveness. Given the rapid urbanization and increasing mobility that many ASEAN countries are seeing, demand for transport infrastructure and more efficient transport networks is on the rise.
