The ASEAN Charter 2007, ratified by the Indonesian Parliament in 2008, was committed by ASEAN leaders during the hypothetical shift. The Charter commits ASEAN 10 member countries to become one solid economic community, one solid socio-cultural community and one solid security community by 2015. This article refers to a secondary data based economic policy research on the shift and the Charter, and their bearings and implications on the accounting profession, financial accounting regulation and standard setting in Indonesia. In addition, the author also develops a theology of happenings which affirms the aforesaid shift.
