Promoting the Sound Development - JAMA
Transcript of Promoting the Sound Development - JAMA
2
The history of steadily expanding cooperative ties between member companies of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA) and their ASEAN partners is now close to half a century old.
Those years were marked by some difficult times―the Asian economic crisis of 1997, for example―but throughout, JAMA members remained firmly committed to ASEAN, consistently striving, through automobile production, sales, and exports, to advance investment, create jobs, and transfer technology. This booklet outlines the more recent activities of JAMA and its member companies in the ASEAN region.
In 2007, new vehicle sales in the ASEAN market (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam) totalled 1.87 million units, a 5.9% increase over the previous year. Sustained expansion of the ASEAN auto industry and market is anticipated in the years ahead along with high economic growth, and the region is expected to play an increasingly critical role in the global market as a center of robust growth.
Also in 2007, JAMA member companies and their local partners in ASEAN produced 2.08 million motor vehicles, exported 653,636 units, and provided employment to 85,491 persons.
The past several years have seen the motor industries in ASEAN neighboring countries increasing their competitive strength, which underscores the urgency of greater global competitiveness for ASEAN's automotive sector. With this goal in mind, there are high hopes that ASEAN will further promote regional integration at the earliest possible time.
ASEAN is making bold moves to surmount the hurdles on the path to greater growth. Such moves include the abolition of regional tariffs, harmonization of automotive technical regulations, mutual recognition of certification, the streamlining of customs procedures and distribution systems, the fostering of supporting industries and human resources, the promotion of safety, greater environmental protection, and other strategies aimed at promoting sound and sustainable mobility.
In this emerging era of new challenges, JAMA members intend to strengthen their ties with ASEAN, moving forward hand in hand with their local partners to support the continued advancement of the automobile industry and the economic wellbeing of this vital corner of the world.

Employment & Number of Facilities
Sales
Sales in the ASEAN market of new passenger cars, trucks and buses produced by JAMA member companies and their local partners in ASEAN totalled 1.56 million units in 2007, in an overall market of 1.87 million units sold. This underscores the fact that JAMA members and their local partners are key players in the ASEAN market.
Plant facilities of JAMA member companies and their local partners in ASEAN totalled 61 in 2007, and employment at those facilities reached 85,491 persons. Both figures have generally been on a rise since 2003.

JAMA Activities in ASEAN
Bilateral and Multilateral EPAs with ASEAN Countries
JAMA has advocated the establishment of economic partnership agreements (EPAs) with ASEAN countries and the region as a whole, and actively supported negotiations by the Japanese government in that direction. In April 2008, the signing of a comprehensive EPA between the ten ASEAN countries and Japan was completed. JAMA is confident that expanded trade and investment between Japan and ASEAN countries as facilitated by EPAs will strengthen the interrelationships among the automobile industries in those countries and thereby promote the further development of ASEAN’s automotive sector as a whole.
The 10th AMEICC Working Group on the Automobile Industry (WGAI) Meeting
Operating under AEM-METI1, the AMEICC (AEM-METI Economic and Industrial Cooperation Committee) WGAI meets annually so that government and industry players can exchange opinions on issues facing the ASEAN automobile industry. Held in Jakarta in September 2007, the tenth meeting was attended by 112 participants. During the meeting JAMA advised on the establishment of whole vehicle type approval (see page 14) through the adoption of UN/ECE regulations, so as to simplify and facilitate certification procedures and ensure vehicle quality; it also explained the roadmap for whole vehicle type approval, at the same time offering its cooperation in regard to following that roadmap. Furthermore, while JAMA advocated the harmonization of fuel specifications as promoted by the Worldwide Fuel Charter and EU regulations, it was noted that moves to introduce biofuels to the market should consider the safety of in-use vehicles. The meeting also reported that the Euro 2 fuel specifications recommended by JAMA for the ASEAN Automotive Federation membership had been used as reference by the respective governments in ASEAN in their drafting of specification for Euro 2. The hope is that all countries will eventually adopt the Euro 4 fuel specifications. Lastly, individual member countries presented updates on domestic market trends and industry policies. In 2007, 45 projects were implemented under various AMEICC working groups, with Japan contributing the assistance of 22 experts to those initiatives.1ASEAN Economic Ministers-Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (Japan)

The 12th Asian Regulation & Certification Experts (RACE) Meeting
The 7th AAF/TC3-JAMA Meeting
To contribute industry input on technical harmonization issues to the JASIC/Government & Industry Meeting in Manila in November 2007, JAMA took the lead in organizing the RACE meeting (also in Manila) one day prior to the G/I forum. At the meeting JAMA reported that Japan had officially announced that an international whole vehicle type approval (see page 14)―which would enable the mutual recognition of such certification among all contracting parties―be proposed to UN/WP29 by 2015. This news greatly encouraged the promotion of technical harmonization by ASEAN countries. During the discussion on discrepancies between unique national regulations and the international UN/ECE regulations, JAMA asserted that the former can be accepted as a temporary alternative to the latter. JAMA also conducted a survey on other obstacles to the establishment of whole vehicle type approval in individual ASEAN countries, in order to provide an empirical basis for the formulation of strategies for its implementation throughout the region.
As part of its continuing efforts to promote closer ties with the automotive industries in ASEAN, JAMA organized in Ho Chi Minh City in January 2007 the seventh bilateral meeting between automotive products certification experts from Japan and ASEAN automotive associations. Three working groups (WG1 on the environment, WG2 on certification, and WG3 on safety regulations) took part in the meeting and keynote speeches were made by JAMA experts. In their speeches, the experts recommended a set of biofuel specification, priority list of UN/ECE safety regulation, and type approval certification system for future harmonization; the use of a common application document for whole vehicle type approval (see page 14) in ASEAN member countries; and the provision of reasonable lead times to ensure the smooth implementation of new vehicle regulations. These various recommendations were helpful to ASEAN working group members in reaching a positive consensus on proposing a number of technical harmonization agendas for consideration by the relevant ASEAN authorities.

Reference: What is the whole vehicle type approval?
JAMA is currently encouraging support from all ASEAN member states for whole vehicle type approval. This system enables the mutual recognition of approvals (MRA) of whole vehicles among different countries through the adoption of UN/ECE (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe) regulations under the 1958 Agreement. To date, the mutual recognition of approvals based on UN/ECE regulations has applied only to vehicle parts and systems.
The merits of worldwide harmonization of technical regulations and MRA include the resulting standardization of vehicle design specifications and greater commonization (or shared use) of parts, reduced development and production costs, and a simplification and facilitation of certification procedures in all countries concerned. Progress in these areas will expand consumer purchasing options and promote the further development of the automotive industry.
JAMA has recommended that the ASEAN countries sign the 1958 Agreement on MRA and adopt the UN/ECE regulations governing relevant parts and systems. The next step is the adoption of whole vehicle type approval, which will lead to the global application of the “Tested once, accepted everywhere” principle. Whole vehicle type approval will, in turn, pave the way for the more widespread use of vehicles incorporating cutting-edge safety and environmental technologies and thereby play an important role in the promotion of international trade.
