Inter-Korean economic relations under president Lee Myung-bak / Zakharova, Ludmila   Journal Article
Zakharova, Ludmila Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract As a result of the policy followed regarding North Korea by presidents Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun, two inter-Korean summits were held and a substantial breakthrough made in inter-Korean economic cooperation. The steps to expand this cooperation adopted at the second inter-Korean summit could bring North and South appreciably closer and be of great material benefit to them. Lee Myung-bak's accession to power, however, and his harsher approach to North Korea have nullified a not inconsiderable portion of the efforts of his two predecessors. The inter-Korean dialogue has been terminated, the implementation of new economic plans has been frozen, and already existing projects have begun to show losses. At the same time, despite the tension in official inter-Korean relations, South Korean business continues to develop its own activities in North Korea. In August 2009, North Korea's tactic of escalating economic demands to the point where they could not be met was replaced by expectations of proposals from the South.

Reform in China's transportation system and the world financial / Sazonov, Sergei   Journal Article
Sazonov, Sergei Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Balanced development of transportation in China had not received enough attention from the government for a long time and remained a bottleneck in the country's economy. New approaches to improve transportation date back to the 1980s only, when accent was placed on a higher quality of the transportation network, construction of high-speed railroads and express highways, introduction of technologies increasing the throughput and carrying capacity, fuel saving, and improvement of transportation logistics. With the world financial crisis under way, the transportation system has, paradoxically, emerged as an "anti-crisis stimulator" that spearheads development of the national economy as a whole.
