This study examines the crucial contribution of Chinese business groups to the rapid growth of South-East Asia. It looks at major Chinese firms and their increasingly important networks in this era of regional interdependence and internationalization of production processes.

The inclusion of surveys of work in these areas should make the book very useful to students as well as researchers.
