China burst onto the world stage in the mid-1980s and in the past decade has been transformed into a giant magnet for FDI, attracting capital from all over the world. Everyone wants a piece of the China action. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the region of Southeast Asia, tucked as it is geographically beneath China’s southern flank. Much of the FDI inflow into China has been at the expense of Southeast Asia. But this has been offset by new opportunities created through China’s rapid economic expansion. This book provides an insightful and objective analysis on how to be succ

David Marshall (1908-1995) was one of Singapore’s most remarkable sons.
