In Southeast Asia, a Vietnamese passport has the same clout as a Cambodian one, and is only more powerful than Laos and Myanmar.

The Singapore passport ranks second, tied with Germany, with a total of 188 destinations accessible without a prior visa.

The third places go to the Republic of Korea, Finland, France, Italy, Spain and Sweden, while the U.S. and the UK are at fourth places.

The Henley Passport Index is formulated based on data from the International Air Transport Association, which maintains the world's largest database of travel information, the Straits Times of Singapore said.

The index surveyed a total of 199 different passports against 227 different travel destinations, including countries, territories, and micro-states.

The region’s biggest economy Indonesia climbed 10 spots from last year, making one of the biggest improvements in the global ranking to claim 69th position.
