Bruno Jetin made a presentation on “Poverty, Inequality and Social Cohesion in ASEAN countries”, an issue he has developed in the book coedited with Mia Mikic, chief of trade policy at UNESCAP, entitled “ASEAN Economic Policy: a Model for Asia-wide Integration” recently published by Palgrave McMillan.
