| description | This study aimed to examine the interdependence relationship among five Association of Southeast Asian Nations
(ASEAN-5) countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand) and China from a business cycles
perspective. The Granger non-causality test proposed by [1] was used to examine causal linkages in business cycles.
The empirical results indicated common business cycles between China and ASEAN-5 economies. This suggested that
China and ASEAN-5 share similar business cycles and could complement each other in the long run. A discussion of
important insights for regional economic policy coordination in which similar business cycles provide a platform for
common regional trade, as well as suggestions for monetary policies, conclude the paper. |
