ASEAN's reskilling challenge: here's how we prepare for the future of work

The strength of ASEAN lies in its numbers. The biggest of those is its population. The 10-nation bloc is home to more than 630 million people, 94% of whom are literate and 50% under 30 years of age. Of those aged 30 and under, 90% have access to the internet. This young, educated, digitally connected base has helped to turn the region into an economic powerhouse, one with a combined GDP of US$2.4 trillion.
