Concluding Remarks
Trade has played an important role in Asia's economic
re-emergence and infrastructure has played an important role in
facilitating trade by lowering trade costs and influencing
comparative advantage and competitiveness. The shift toward
lower weight-value ratios of traded goods and increased value of
timely delivery has implications for infrastructure investments
and expansion. Notably, the development of physical
infrastructure should be complemented by improvements in
supporting institutions.
