| description | The African continent is endowed with natural, agricultural and human resources, yet when
compared to other continents of the world, in terms of development and growth, the continent is
still left behind. In this notion, African leaders through their regional organization known as
African Union established the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) which
sought to partner with African countries and other countries of the world with a view of
engaging into programs that would develop the continent. As such, NEPAD partnership with the
Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN) is targeted at exploring the opportunities in
Africa towards the advancement of the continent and, in turn, providing a new ground for
ASEAN in achieving her targeted sub-regional economic development. This research paper
seeks to explore the opportunities in this partnership where ASEAN countries can benefit from
Africa and vice-visa. The research made use of qualitative approach through the conduct of
interviews, review of previous literature, internet sources, academic journals and use of
available books as sources of data collection. The findings from this research reveals that most of
Africa’s resources are yet to be tapped; areas such as science and technology, agriculture,
transport system, telecommunications, and development of natural resources are key areas
where ASEAN countries can invest in through partnership with the NEPAD program
implementation. As such, a new ground for ASEAN countries to move in. |
