‘The strength of this book lies in the solid empirical data it presents, in the effectiveness of the network approach, and in the comparative perspective which makes it a useful reference for students interested in both FDI and business networking in East and Southeast Asia.’
– Hong Liu, China Information
‘To sum up, by bringing together a large amount of data that is all the more useful in that it is not always easy to get hold of, this work offers us a general and rather complete study of the movement of Taiwanese DI into Southeast Asia.’
– Peter Brown, China Perspectives
Taiwanese foreign direct investment rapidly expanded in the mid-1980s when the domestic wage rate and the value of the Taiwanese currency skyrocketed simultaneously. Losing their competitive edge at home, many Taiwanese firms relocated to lower wage countries; mainly Southeast Asia and China.
Taiwanese Firms in Southeast Asia provides a comprehensive review of Taiwan’s direct investment in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam. It also explores the motivation behind investment in Asia, Europe and the US.
