Inauguration of the AEC and Its Impacts on Relation between Singapore and Indonesia(5)

Comparative Research on Relationship of Singapore and Indonesia in the AEC Aspect

However, country-level reports are not easily seen as most studies have been focused on the investigation and prediction of the region's general economic situation in the wake of the AEC. In particular, comparative analysis centered on the relationship among the ASEAN members has rarely been made. My quest starts at this point. 

In this paper, at first, I will discuss the perception and the response of two distinguishing economies in the region, Singapore and Indonesia to the formation of the AEC. Singapore, the most advanced economy and Indonesia, the biggest economy has undoubtedly led the ASEAN so far.

Broadening Global Horizon and Establishing Rich Friendship

Looking back on, there are things which I hope to be improved or fixed in the near future. For example, I still can't fully understand why students have to submit a key learning report per each class. Some class lasted only 2 or 3 hours and contents were not clear as well. Under this circumstance, requiring a key learning report is asking too much. Students may have strong temptation of cooking up stories.

Additionally, a couple of outdoor activities such as visits to Swap Meet and Honolulu Zoo were way from expectation. Putting the title of a filed study in the shade, energy and vitality was rarely noticed on the sport as if reflecting gloomy economic situation in Hawaii.

Putting the title of a filed study in the shade, energy and vitality was rarely noticed on the sport as if reflecting gloomy economic situation in Hawaii. Last not but least, comparing other corporate scholarship programs, Fujitsu scholarship assignments seems much. 

I understand each company has different point of views on their scholarship policies as part of its CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities. However, even requiring an additional assignment after students go back to their home country sounds not a reasonable idea. Once given, it could be better to leave the scholarship entirely in the hands of students.

In spite of some shortfalls, in general, EWKLP and Fujitsu scholarship is well-organized enough to realize my goals which I dreamed back in Korea last year. Once again, I truly appreciate all JAIMS staff and Fujitsu personnel for letting me broaden global horizon and build up rich friendship. And I hope JAIMS and EWKLP will make more distinct presence in the international community soon.
