BBA Thammasat knows well that many important things in the real world are what we cannot study in classroom. Therefore, the program always holds academic workshops to enhance students’ knowledge and capabilities. 

Since one of the most important issues which capture world’s interest these days is the formation of ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015, it is important that business people should get prepared for this huge change, especially business students like us who have to face real business world in the near future.

An objective of this workshop was to provide basic knowledge and overall understanding of AEC as well as how to get ready for it. The lecturer started with the history of ASEAN, its goals and its vision. After that was followed by the background of economic integration, its pros and cons, along with the status of ASEAN in this aspect. He then pointed out the impact of AEC on world trade, especially the impact on trade of Thailand, what Thailand already done well and what Thailand still lacks of. 

The session was very enjoyable since the lecturer keep encouraged in-class interaction and discussion throughout the three-hour lecture. Moreover, he also brought additional documents for those who were interested. This is a great opportunity for us to learn about what we cannot study in regular classes. We really appreciate BBA program for this valuable session and also would like to thank the lecturer for his wonderful
workshop.
