Two indices were used simultaneously to evaluate comparative advantage: the world-export share index and the export-import ratio. The results show that Malaysia and Indonesia possess comparative advantage in primary products. Thailand&#8217;s comparative advantage in the crops and animal product group is foremost (though declining) followed by Malaysia, Indonesia and Phillipines. In the manufacture of labour intensive goods, Thailand and Phillipines are at comparative advantage with Indonesia acquiring comparative advantage in 1990. None of theASEAN countries possess comparative advantage in the moderately and highly capital and skill intensive manufactured goods category although Singapore is least disadvantaged. In order for Malaysia to remain competitive and acquire competitiveness in new sectors, the known strategies for success must be intensified and &#8220;new&#8221; strategies must be found to stay ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","tags":[],"jel-code":[],"article-type":[1329],"class_list":["entry","author-jem","post-1700","article","type-article","status-publish","article-type-normal-article"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dynamic Comparative Advantage of the Asean Countries | Jurnal Ekonomi Malaysia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/jem\/article\/dynamic-comparative-advantage-of-the-asean-countries\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dynamic Comparative Advantage of the Asean Countries | Jurnal Ekonomi Malaysia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This paper examines revealed comparative advantage of the ASEAN countries for the period 1985-1990.
