Southeast Asia's two largest economies, Indonesia and Thailand, have hosted a large number of foreign multinational corporations (MNCs) over the last decades. Understanding the economic effects of these MNCs is thus a priority for academics, policy makers and business professionals alike. In this volume, a number of international economists use factory-level data to analyze the effects of MNCs on wages, productivity and exports in Indonesia and Thailand, in unprecedented detail.

Industry Reviews

'This is a solid book that deals with very technical issues in a clear and succinct manner. Unlike many publications that result from a research project, as this book was, it reads like a coherent whole.' - Francis Edward Hutchinson, Asean Economic Bulletin
