In particular, Balamurugan has deep and close working relationships with ASEAN, IMT-GT, BIMP-EAGA and ADB.

Balamurugan has amassed a range of specialised skills and has direct experience in developing policy and strategies for regional economic integration and cooperation between countries. This includes multi-sector experience in agriculture, tourism, halal products and services, transport and ICT connectivity, trade & investment, environment and human resource management.
