Abstract
The existence of market restrictive measures in rice trade (including the establishment of monopolies) has long been shown to exist in the history of many ASEAN countries. In modern times, Governments allude to food security to rationalize those measures, but the way they are designed and implemented may create new problems rather than solving the existing problems. Based on such a premise, this paper will examine what selected the ASEAN Member States adopts law and policy measures in dealing with rice trade. This paper will also analyze the vulnerability of those measures to market restrictive practices. This paper mainly involves doctrinal legal research with limited use of statistical analysis. This paper will contribute to a balanced rice trade policy in ASEAN.
