Focusing on three triangles--in southern China, on the borders of Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia, and in the Tumen River Delta on China's northeast border--the papers in this collection define, explore, and debate the issues surrounding the establishment of such entities and make predictions about their potential for success.

Fiscal Management and Economic Reform in the People's Republic of China

Since 1979, economic reforms in the People's Republic of China have produced impressive gains in national income and living standards. The process, however, is not complete, and several aspects of the fiscal system need reform before the full benefits of a market economy can be realized. The government needs to be able to control revenue, expenditure, and the money supply. This can only be done if the Ministry of Finance is given greater powers to analyze the current economic situation, anticipate future changes, and guide economic reforms.  This book deals with the complex nature of the market-oriented reform process in the world's largest country. Although the focus of the study is on fiscal policy and the broader realm of public finance, it also addresses other economy-wide reforms under implementation. In the long term, the success of the fiscal reforms will hinge crucially on the enterprise, price and financial sector reforms, and on current, or planned, structural reforms that promote market-based macromanagement.

This is the current edition of the Asian Development Bank's annual survey of the progress made by its developing country members in Asia and the Pacific. First published in 1989, the Outlook provides a thorough yet succinct summary of recent economic developments and current issues. Economic trends and medium-term prospects for the region are viewed against a background of development in the world economy.

Asian Development Outlook 1997 and 1998

Over the past decade, a large number of countries throughout Asia have taken steps toward establishing more liberal financial regimes: domestic financial markets are being deregulated and the links between domestic and international capital markets are intensifying. While financial reform experiments in a number of Asian countries have met with a great deal of success, for most Asian countries progress has still yet to happen. As a means of providing a forum for issues such as the challenges and constraints faced by these economies, the ensuing policy dilemmas, and the methods of dealing with them, The Asian Development Bank organized a high-level seminar on financial sector development in Asia. This book presents the collection of papers and proceedings from this seminar and provides an overview of the key issues and challenges related to financial reform in the region.
