Summary / Abstract (Note)Since 1977 with the application of the Fukuda Doctrine to Southeast Asia, successive Japanese governments have continued a regional strategy of development aid. When Japan’s massive aid in the 1980s-1990s transferred Japanese manufacturing to Thailand under the“Flying Geese”paradigm intended to help developing countries catch up with developed ones, it was the major external factor in Thailand’s economic take-off and contributed to post-Cold War domestic stability in neighboring Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Beneficiaries of Japanese development aid, these countries introduced policies of reform and opening to the outside world. The Greater Mekong Subregional Cooperation Projects supported by Asian Development Bank (ADB) were at the hub of that progress.
