The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is a proposed free trade agreement between the 10 ASEAN nations and their six FTA partners - Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand. Negotiations for the RCEP agreement have been ongoing since 2012. While the RCEP could provide economic opportunities for India and boost trade, there are also concerns that it could harm domestic industries in India by increasing competition and widening the trade deficit with countries like China. As a result, the Indian government has taken a cautious approach to the RCEP negotiations.
The document summarizes the 1997 Korean financial crisis. It discusses the background leading up to the crisis including growing foreign debt levels. It then examines the causes such as declining exports and a vulnerable financial system. The consequences included corporate and bank failures, high unemployment, falling GDP and currency depreciation. In response, the Korean government and IMF implemented plans including bank closures and economic reforms. Lessons highlighted were the need for sound financial regulation and independence from political influence.

This document provides a review of Taiwan's government housing subsidy programs and the housing situation over the past 40 years. It notes that while various programs have provided subsidized ownership housing, social housing (defined as rental units with below-market rents) makes up only 0.08% of Taiwan's housing stock. This is significantly less than the percentage of social housing in other countries like the US, Germany, UK, and Netherlands. The document argues that Taiwan's approach of focusing on subsidized ownership rather than rental housing has limited assistance to only the upper-middle class and failed to adequately address the needs of the very poor.
The document provides information about Japan's economy and political factors. It discusses Japan's status as the third largest economy in the world but one that is highly dependent on exports and vulnerable to external shocks. It notes that while Prime Minister Abe's economic reforms have helped growth, public debt remains very high and population aging is a concern. Key political factors discussed include Japan's stable one-party rule by the LDP and influence of bureaucratic ministries.
This document summarizes key topics related to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region's economy. It discusses challenges such as high unemployment, especially among youth, and a large public sector that has crowded out the private sector. Opportunities include utilizing the young population and developing renewable energy and manufacturing. Free trade agreements in the region have not significantly increased trade between member countries. The document also outlines priorities for investment, governance, and economic development in the MENA region.
The document provides an overview of China's economic growth and history. It discusses China's transition from a largely agricultural economy to an industrial and market-based one through various 5-year plans beginning in the 1950s. Key events included the Great Leap Forward in the late 1950s, which resulted in famine, and the Cultural Revolution from 1966-1976, which disrupted the economy. Economic reforms began in 1978 under Deng Xiaoping, opening China up to foreign investment and trade.

Globalization refers to increasing economic integration and interdependence between countries through unrestricted trade and financial flows. India adopted economic globalization policies in 1991 due to issues like mounting fiscal deficits and falling foreign exchange reserves. This led to liberalization of trade, privatization of industries, and allowing foreign investment in India. While globalization has increased India's economic growth and international engagement, it has also benefited large corporations more than small farmers and widened wealth inequality. Both opportunities and challenges exist as India progresses with globalization.
