Book excerpt: Southeast Asia's two largest economies, Indonesia and Thailand, have hosted a large number of foreign multinational corporations (MNCs) over the last decades. Understanding the economic effects of these MNCs is thus a priority for academics, policy makers and business professionals alike. In this volume, a number of international economists use factory-level data to analyze the effects of MNCs on wages, productivity and exports in Indonesia and Thailand, in unprecedented detail.
