- Synopsis
- This book explores the economic and political effects of Chinese outward foreign direct investment (COFDI) through in-depth and comparative analyses of COFDI in economically and politically diverse Southeast Asia countries.Featuring 21 case studies of COFDI in Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Cambodia, the book looks at three core effects, namely, employment, technology transfer, and domestic political effects. The case studies also explore the negative social outcomes of Chinese investments in these nations as well as serious environmental issues linked to COFDI, ranging from the destruction of forests to the loss of biodiversity to air and noise pollution.Revealing both the negative and positive impacts of COFDI in these Southeast Asian nations, this book will be a valuable resource to policymakers as well as students and scholars of Chinese and Southeast Asian economics and politics.
