Bagi para pelaku UKM yang inovatif dan memiliki kemampuan adaptasi, penerapan ACFTA semestinya justru menjadi peluang dan atau tantangan baru dalam menciptakan pasar yang lebih luas. Penelitian ini menelaah issue dan strategi UKM dalam menghadapi ACFTA, dan merupakan studi kasus terhadap para pelaku UKM di kawasan sentra industri rajutan Binongjati Kota Bandung. Dalam penelitian ini dilibatkan pelaku UKM, asosiasi/ kelompok pengusaha, Pemkot Bandung dan Pemprov Jawa Barat, serta instansi terkait lainnya.
