This paper proposes the I-4 Initiative, a set of broad-based recommendations designed to help the US tackle ASEAN's key obstacles to economic growth, and thereby differentiating itself from other competing multilateral economic frameworks, striving to garner ASEAN's involvement. As part of the current situational analysis, this paper also touches on ASEAN's growing economic potential as well as on the viability of the Trans-Pacific Agreement (TPP) and the US-ASEAN Extended Economic Engagement (E3). A posture on how the US can balance both arrangements is also recommended.

With a high-energy and dynamic presentation style, I aim to deliver insightful, impactful, and meaningful corporate workshops to organisations in Asia. Organisations hire me because I can deliver applicable and practical skillsets in an engaging, entertaining, and enthralling manner that is easy to understand. I attempt to transform mundane topics into memorable experiences for my learners. The ability to consistently deliver massive value with high audience ratings in the classroom has made me one of Asia's most sought-after trainers. If you want to enhance your personal productivity and peak performance, become an influential communicator, or learn digital marketing skills, then I am your logical choice. Since 2007, my live trainings and keynote speeches have reached over 1.5 million people and 1119 organisations in more than 50 countries. Many of these speeches were broadcasted to an international audience. I have also published 140 eBooks, 3300+ articles, and nearly 13,000 educational videos/podcasts across multiple social media platforms and websites, culminating in over 250 million views collectively. When not conducting classes, I serve as an Associate Director of a home-grown strategy consulting firm with a regional clientele. I also serve as advisor to a FinTech company that brings automated trading of hedge fund strategies to the retail market, and as advisor to several educational institutions. In 2012, I started a consulting firm which was successfully acquired. I have also investments in an import-export firm and an eCommerce business. In my free time, I enrol myself in additional degree and certification programmes so as to indulge myself in the pleasures of lifelong learning. These combined experiences have made me a better trainer.
