Book Description

This book is a collection of invited and selected papers from the Singapore Economic Policy Forum 2009 around a central theme, Challenges Facing Singapore in the Post-Crisis Era and Policy Responses. There are very few books on the Singapore economy. This one is largely non-technical in nature and brings the reader up to speed on the key issues facing policymakers in Singapore in the wake of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. The contributors are all experts in their field and have extensive experience of the Singapore economy. The book also offers an international dimension to look at the role of China in the Asian economy and the impact on Asia of reforms to the international financial architecture.

Editorial Reviews

Review

In this authoritative and stimulating volume, Peter Wilson and his team of leading Singapore intellectuals provide a rigorous, forward-looking analysis of policy options and challenges. The international parameters are likely to include slower global economic growth and continuing asset price volatility, while at home the challenges include the evident secular decline in productivity growth and a range of pressing social policy issues. A must-read volume. –Hal Hill, H W Arndt Professor of Southeast Asian Economies, Australian National University

This is a timely book with fresh insights and recommendations which reframe policy issues in key areas. The bold proposals are a valuable contribution to the debate on the future of Singapore in general and its economy in particular. –Phang Sock Yong, Professor of Economics, Singapore Management University
