The chapters in this book have been used in a number of seminars conducted by the Economic Development Institute in collaboration with the Asian Development Bank.
Small and medium enterprise (SMEs) are playing an ever increasing role in the industrial structures of developing countries around the world. Recent trends in technology, management techniques, firm sizes, and global investment have (among other factors) led to significant changes in industrial structure. The chapters in this volume analyze the importance of SME development – in the context of interfirm linkages (particularly interfirm linkages) – and demonstrate how recent changes in industrial structure are providing opportunities for this type of development in four East Asian countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand). The bulk of this volume (chapters 2-5) will describe the efforts being made by each of the four countries to develop greater interfirm linkages and analyze the relative success of their efforts.
