Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Analyzing the role of multinational investors in emerging Asian
economies and the implications for regional economic integration,
this astute study examines the increasing role being played by
Asian countries in the global economy.Encompassing a large number
of diverse manufacturing and service sectors, this book highlights
the cultural and strategic challenges faced by multinational
investors in the region in which they invest. It shows that despite
high rates of economic growth in Asian countries presenting
multinational traders and investors with unparalleled market
opportunities, there have been only tentative moves towards
regional economic integration. Areas such as trade facilitation,
uniform customs clearance, removal of non-tariff barriers and
labour deployment issues are yet to be adequately addressed.
Multifaceted and multidimensional in approach, Emerging Asian
Economies and MNCs Strategies will appeal to students and scholars
of Asian economies and business management in the region. Its
presentation of the sociopolitical and investment environment will
also prove invaluable in informing business investors targeting
southeast Asian markets. Contributors include: B.
Andreosso-O'Callaghan, N. Callinan, C. Dathe, S. Dzever, W. Feng,
B. Gupta, J. Jaussaud, J.-L. Mucchielli, F. Nicolas, R. Taylor, U.

This book deals with a number of contentious issues in Chinese
management as China emerges as a global economic player, with a
greater role in international business during a global economic
crisis. This step is in tandem with an economically driven foreign
policy. Since the 1980s, Chinese management while still in
transition, has benefited from an infusion of capital, technology
and managerial expertise through inward direct investment via joint
and wholly-owned foreign ventures. As the so-called 'workshop of
the world', China and its exports, especially labour-intensive
goods, face protectionism in the United States and the European
Union. To circumvent these barriers, the Chinese leaders are
emphasising domestic consumption, itself dependent on rising
personal income levels and an improved national social insurance
system, and a move to high-tech products, themselves requiring
indigenous innovation. The creation of a knowledge economy, in
addition to outward investment in manufacturing, could lead to a
distinctive independent style of Chinese management.
Simultaneously, China's participation in intra-regional trade
underlines the nation's role in Asian regional business networks.
Such developments in turn present a challenge to Western and global
business. This book was published as a special issue of Asia
Pacific Business Review.
Bob Waldo was without a fulfilling love all his young life. As a
spirited Naval officer he was too lackadaisical to know love when
charming and beautiful Leslie Taylor entered his life. Bob never
realized his love for Leslie until it was too late and she walked
out of his life. The heartbreak of losing Leslie drove Bob to a
life of hedonism and he fell vulnerable to the charms of beautiful
and strong-willed Mandy Cambridge, the one who occupied his time
but not his heart. During his on and off relationship with Mandy,
Bob still longed for Leslie. He volunteered for Vietnam, where he
uncovered the secret schemes of two tratorous Americans. This would
change his life and the life of the ones he loved forever.
