Japan's Role in Asia: Mutual Development of Ruthless Competition

By Sing and Hua Sing Lim

This book examines the dynamics of the relationship between Japan and Asia, in Malaysia, Singapore, ASEAN, NIEs, China, Asian and ethnic Chinese economies, Asia's economic performance and revitalization. The influence and involvement of Japan in the economic development of these countries is examined, especially with regard to Investment, Trade frictions, Official Development Assistance, Non-tariff barriers, Technology transfer and managerial know-how, Free Trade Areas (FTAs) and regional economic integration. As the major economic player in the region, Japan will determine whether her role in Asia will foster mutual development and prosperity or ruthless competition, underdevelopment and distrust. This fourth expanded edition also discusses the Asian financial crisis and recovery in the light of the region's revitalization, Japan's approach towards ethnic Chinese economies in Asia, China's rapid economic development and Asia's economic integration through establishing FTAs.
