Abstract
The ASEAN Economic Blueprint 2025 affirms the role of consumer protection as 'an integral part of a modern, efficient, effective and fair market place'. It further recognises that, particularly with the rise of e-commerce, a well-functioning consumer protection regime 'will require comprehensive and well-functioning national and regional consumer protection systems enforced through effective legislation, redress mechanisms and public awareness'.
