The East Asian miracle, or its putative demise, is always news. The
four Tiger economies of Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and South
Korea have experienced some of the fastest rates of economic growth
ever achieved. This work provides an analysis of the development of
education and training systems in Asia, and the relationship with
the process of economic growth. The authors focus on how these
systems facilitated their transition from labour intensive to
