Title: Explaining the economic success of Singapore
Description: "Explaining the Economic Success of Singapore explores the transformation of Singapore in the last three decades, going beyond the conventional explanations often accepted. The book argues that there was more to the transformation than a simple 'right place, right time' scenario as other developing countries benefited from similar multinational corporation investment and political stability but did not achieve the same success. Johnny Sung illustrates what differentiates Singapore from these other similar countries." "Providing important lessons for workforce development policies, this book will appeal to workforce development policy makers, researchers and academics of labour studies, Asian studies and political science, as well as consultants advising on workforce matters."--BOOK JACKET.
