This publication explains how the 11 member countries of the
Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Program can
build safer and more competitive transport corridors for people and
goods. It gives an overview of each country's road network and
identifies how to better collect data to bolster road asset
management systems and improve planning. Highlighting the benefits
of sharing best practices, the publication offers tips on how to
fine-tune performance-based road maintenance contracts. It also

The Master Plan presents a comprehensive 10-year strategy and
action plan for improving the subregion's transport linkages across
the Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and
Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) member states. It is intended to
guide actions and promote synergies among various connectivity
frameworks and help achieve sustainable development of the region.
A specific framework is presented here for organizing a set of
policies, strategies, and projects toward realizing a shared vision
of peace, prosperity, and sustainability. With BIMSTEC's unique
geographical position as a bridge linking South and Southeast Asia,
this document is also relevant to its neighboring regions. BIMSTEC
was established as a regional organization in June 1997 to promote
free trade within the region, increase cross-border investment and
tourism, and promote technical cooperation.
This publication analyzes the Product-Specific Rules of Origin
(PSRO) of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP)
and other free trade agreements and proposes policy options. The
report compares RCEP with the ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement and
the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific
Partnership. It looks at the main rules of origin provisions of the
three free trade agreements and discusses differences and
similarities in how they were drafted. The study compares the
stringency and leniency of RCEP PSRO with that of the other
agreements and identifies where PSRO among the three are
converging. Its findings provide the basis for policy
recommendations to leverage RCEP to simplify rules of origin across
Asia and the Pacific.

directions to match travelers' needs in a post-COVID-19 world and
illustrates several methodological applications in transportation
to inspire scholars, researchers, and developers to further their
