FORGING ALLIANCE | Issue 1

FORGING AHEAD IN SOUTHEAST ASIA
The synergistic industries of wire, tube, foundry technology, and metallurgy, take centre stage in Thailand against the
backdrop of a dynamic region’s buoyant growth sectors

S

outheast Asia boasts one of the world’s most diverse economies,
spanning across 4.5 million square kilometres with a populationof 675 million people. In 2022, its total Gross Domestic Product(GDP) amounted to US$ 900 billion and currently it is the 7thlargest economy globally. By 2050, Southeast Asia is projected to climb
to the 4th spot. Consequently, the region is prioritising infrastructuredevelopment, with the Master Plan of ASEAN Connectivity 2025
highlighting sustainable infrastructure, cross-border connectivity, andmobilisation of private capital as key areas of focus.
With capital projects, priority infrastructure development inenergy, road, rail, water and others, as well as industrial modernisation
expansions in Southeast Asia expected to proceed on schedule, thedemand for reliable machinery and technology, a need for cost-effective
equipment and solutions, high-quality raw materials, and engineering
services is projected to rise. Specialist trade events such as wire and Tube
Southeast Asia, GIFA and METEC Southeast Asia all scheduled to hit thetrade fair circuit in Thailand from 20-22 September 2023 are expected
to stimulate investment decisions in the region, as economies makeprogress and pent-up demand gains momentum. Overall, Southeast Asia’s
strong population and economic growth, increasing consumer spending,and rapid urbanisation plans make it an attractive market for businesses
looking to expand their footprint in the region.

THE REGION’S GROWTH SECTORSASEAN countries will continue to see strong structural steel demand
growth. The return of tourism and the restart of delayed infrastructure
projects, in particular in Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam, should
further drive stronger growth. The most important sectors contributing
to the region’s steel consumption are energy generation, transport,
construction/civil engineering and steel/metal packaging, making thedemand for metallurgy and casting technology particularly robust in theregion.

Construction
The Emerging Asia region is projected to experience thehighest construction market growth in the next 15 years,
housing the top four national markets: the Philippines,
Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The region’s industry
growth will be further propelled by an acceleration in public
investment projects.
Automotive
Thailand continues to be the regional vehicle production andexport base for some of the world’s top car makers, including
Toyota and Honda. Indonesia is home to ASEAN’s largest
market for two-and-four-wheel vehicles. Thus, the die casting
technology market will see significant growth potential.
EnergyASEAN is the world’s fourth-largest energy consumer. Its
current energy structure is skewed towards traditional formsof power generation, with fossil fuels making up 83% of its
energy mix, and energy demand is expected to increase withthe population rise.

SOUTHEAST ASIA EMERGES AS A POWERHOUSEIN THE GLOBAL ENERGY MARKETThe region is rapidly becoming one of the world’s fastest-growing
energy and power markets. The International Energy Agency predicts thatenergy demand will increase by up to 60% by 2040, with coal remaining
a primary source of energy in the region. The growing population andrapid industrialisation are fuelling the demand for electricity, which is
expected to boost the share of the wire and cable market across the Asia
Pacific region.
The pressing need to address climate change and decreasedependence on non-renewable energy sources has sparked a significant
increase in renewable energy investments. The Southeast Asian region
has experienced a notable surge in renewable energy projects, including
solar, wind, and hydropower, signalling a promising transition towards amore sustainable future. This renewable energy revolution offers both
economic and environmental advantages, generating new employment
prospects and promoting sustainable growth throughout the region.
Thailand introduced the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) scheme and National Energy
Plan (NEP) 2022 to hasten the country’s transition to clean and green
energy to meet net zero emission goals.
