| Summary: | Over the last few decades, global trade activities showed a
significant increase, resulting in a rise of the wider global economic growth. The achievement is partly due to the
more integrated global trade system under global trade
regime such as World Trade Organization (WTO) that
standardized the practice of global trade. On the other hand, it could also be seen that regional trade negotiation became more important part of global trade activity. The trade negotiation itself was pushed and tailored by regional
perspective, which indigenized trade agreement. This research aims to analyze the indigenization of ASEAN’s trade
negotiation model. How has the current trade negotiation
model within the region represented indigenous needs and
aspirations? This study also offers to revisit the conceptual framework in identifying the trade negotiation model to measure the indigeneity of Southeast Asian automotive industry’s policy. This research concludes by explaining the case studies which measure the effect of indigenization to the practice of trade agreement in the region.
