ConclusionTrade globalization has prompted the need for strategic partnership. Harmonized standards are important in facilitating and liberalizing trade and investment.Regional harmonization can only be achieved by bridging the gaps between ASEAN member countries in the establishment of regulatory systems and implementation of common requirements.Global co-operation provides opportunities for development and improvements, paving the way for international recognition. Establishing MRA is crucial to ensure effective harmonization.Despite challenges, PPWG has charted milestone achievements towards creating a single pharmaceutical market.
