Southeast Asia emerged as a new world region just after World War II. In 1967 a group of states in the region—Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand—joined together and formed an alliance called the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN). Since then the organization has expanded to include Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Burma (Myanmar), Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei and East Timor.
Other countries around the world refer to the five countries including Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Myanmar as the Land States, or Peninsula States. The other five countries including Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei and the Philippines are called Ocean States, or Island nations.
Today, ASEAN is one of the most dynamic and promising regions in terms of economic development globally, which should be attributed to its location, peoples, customs and natural resources. In this fertile land, the nonwovens industry is looking to further increase its development. Leading global industry players favor the long-term prospects for growth in this huge market while investment dollars in the sector has grown stronger and stronger.
