Summary
"Once the economic 'sick man' of Asia, the Philippines has emerged as a prime prospect for business in the region even as the economies of other Asian countries suffer economic turmoil." "Whether you're interested in marketing, investing or simply setting up an office, this guide tells you how to go about it." "A team of experts, led by veteran journalist and author Donald Kirk, offers useful tips and background on a wide range of topics as well as a realistic assessment of business and economic conditions."--Jacket.
