Navigating the Economic Reform Process
Southeast Asian Affairs is the only one of its kind: a comprehensive annual review devoted to the international relations, politics, and economies of the region and its nation-states. The collected volumes of Southeast Asian Affairs have become a compendium documenting the dynamic evolution of regional and national developments in Southeast Asia from the end of the 'second' Vietnam War to the alarms and struggles of today. Over the years, the edi…
Laos: Exiguous Evidence of Economic Reform and Development
There were relatively few surprising or significant developments in Laos during 2003, although various events served to underline the rather unique character and specific challenges that confront one of Southeast Asia's least developed countries. And although the gradual pace at which events tend to occur in Laos did not accelerate in 2003, there were some interesting twists and turns to be observed during the year
Pragmatism in the face of adversity: Enterprise reform in Laos
Enterprise reform undertaken by Laos during the past fifteen years of economic transition has largely entailed a relatively successful privatization programme for the country’s state-owned enterprises (SOEs). However, problems remain with the larger ‘strategic’ SOEs that continue to operate, and the state-run commercial banks that continue to fund their loss-making operations, despite on-going attempts to ‘commercialize’ the business activities o…
Laos: Sedately Seguing into the Twenty‐First Century
Introduction After a relatively torrid couple of years, beset with substantial economic difficulties, 2001 was more sedate for the Lao People's Democratic Republic. The signs of political unrest and sporadic acts of terrorism that Laos witnessed throughout 2000 also appeared to fully abate in early 2001. Spiralling inflation has largely been brought under control, as has the foreign exchange rate for the Lao kip. The Seventh Congress of the Lao P…
Southeast Asia ́s Economies: Corporate Sector Concerns Return to the Fore
Introduction One could almost hear the collective sigh of relief that echoed around the capitals of Southeast Asia in late 1999 and early 2000, as most countries' economic growth rates returned to positive territory, and the anni horribilis of 1997-98 began to fade into memory. During the first half of 2000, economists began to talk of a V-shaped recovery for the region in the propitious Year of the Dragon. In big picture terms at least, Southeas…
Greater Mekong Sub‐Region And the “Asian Crisis”: Caught Between Scylla and Charybdis
Laos: No Safe Haven from the Regional Tumult
1997 was the year Laos entered the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) as a full member, and persisted with a more outward-looking ? albeit still relatively reserved ? stance towards the enveloping region, and the international community as a whole. Unfortunately, the country's opening up coincided with a marked dip in the economic fortunes of Southeast Asia, particularly Thailand, on which land-locked Laos remains heavily dependent fo…
Vietnam: Better Managing Reform
Nineteen ninety-five was an eventful year for Vietnam, as the country marked the twendeth anniversary of its reunification, the fiftieth anniversary of Ho Chi Minh's declaration of independence, and the sixty-fifth anniversaries of the founding of the Communist Party of Vietnam and the Vietnam Fatherland Front. It was also the year that Hanoi finally normalized its relations with Washington, and gained full membership status in the Association of…
