Charter and ASEAN blueprint towards the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015, has been agreed by the members, characterized by  a new round of joint commitment that is legally binding. AEC Blueprint will give direction of ASEAN as a regional production base and single market. The blueprint is supported by the five essential pillars namely: the free flow of goods, services, investment, skilled labor, and freer flow  of capital. Efforts to realize the ASEAN as a regional production base and single market is certainly provides a lot of great opportunities and challenges for Indonesia. In this regard, the  main sectors which require improvement are professional human capital and competent. Without improvements in this sector, efforts to achieve the Indonesian government for human capital to compete with other countries in Southeast Asia will be difficult. Therefore, in facing such competition, the Indonesian government should prepare a Human Resources (HR) were skilled, intelligent and competitive that Indonesian human resources able to compete.

Background: Recently, agricultural productivity growth has experienced a sharp downward turn across the countries of Southeast Asia partly due to population aging, increasing pace of urbanization, and industrialization. Objective: To provide empirical evidence to the elasticity of prevailing health spending as a proxy of human capital stock on agricultural productivity growth in Southeast Asia. Methods: This study analyses data obtained from the World Development Indicators for 2000-2016 using panel data regression models. Results: The empirical evidence suggests that prevailing health expenditure, though statistically significant, exerts a strong positive effect on agricultural productivity growth. Therefore, a unit rise in prevailing health spending relative to GDP would increase agricultural productivity growth by 28% across countries of Southeast Asia, all else constant. Conclusion: The trend of rapid agricultural productivity declines in Southeast Asia could be altered by augmenting investment to the prevailing health spending as an indicator of human capital stock. Policy implications: The governments of Southeast Asia should increase investment in prevailing health spending relative to GDP, to stimulate more growth in agricultural productivity, greatly improved human capital stock, and eventually increase economic growth.
