Asia's Economy
Welcome to Asia's economy 101. After studying the case of China, I would like to focus ora country whose economy is as vibrant if much smaller. During this lecture, you'll know howSouth Korea's economy strode and what challenges it is facing now.
(1) First, let's have a look at the significant progress of South Korea's economy and its char.
acteristics.要點初涉題
(2) In 1960, in the aftermath of the Korean war, South Korea was one of the poorest countriesin the world, with an income per head on a par with the poorest parts of Africa. 細節處設題 Bythe end of 2011 it had been richer than the European Union average, with a gross domestic product per person of $31,750, calculated on a basis of purchasing-power parity (PPP), compared with$31,550 for the EU. South Korea is the only country that has so far managed to go from being therecipient of a lot of development aid to being rich within a working life.
For most poor countries, South Korea is a model of growth. It's a better exemplar than China, which is too vast to copy, and better, too, than Singapore or Hong Kong. Both are richer thanSouth Korea but both are exceptions: Singapore and Hong Kong are city states.
South Korea has not merely grown fast. (3) It has combined growth with democracy. For those of you familiar with South Korea's history you might say that its spurt began under a military dictator, Park Chung-hee. That's true, but for the past 25 years the country has hada vibrant parliamentary system. South Korea scores the same as Japan in the democracy tally keptby Freedom House, a think-tank in Washington, DC. No other Asian country does as well.
(4) At the same time South Korea has combined growth with equity. Between1980 and 1997, its Gini coefficient, fell from 0.33 to an exceptionally low 0.28, before risingback up during the 1997-98 Asian crisis. In 2010, the level was 0.31. This is a bit worse thanScandinavian countries, a bit better than Canada. By the way, if you don't know what Gini coefficient means, you might want to listen to the next lecture, during which I will explain it in detail.
(5) Now South Korea can add resilience to its roster of achievements.It was walloped during the global financial crisis, but recovered faster than any other rich country. BetweenJune 2008 and February 2009, South Korea lost 1.2 million jobs. In September 2011, foreignerswithdrew over 1.3 trillion won ($1.1 billion) from the stock market and the currency slumped 10%.
Yet in 2010, GDP grew by 6%. The unemployment rate is now only 3%. Some of the recovery is the result of South Korea's happy dependence on China. It exports more capital goods toChina relative to the size of its economy than anyone else. But this is only part of the explanation.The government also initiated a public-works scheme that is mopping up over 2% of the labourforce. It introduced an old-age pension and began an earned-income tax credit.
South Korea is catching up with America's standard of living. China's dollar GDP per personwould have to grow at 7.5%-8% a year for 20 years to reach the heights South Korea has already scaled.
The South Korean model had three distinctive features: an industrious workforce; powerfulconglomerates; and relatively weak smaller firms.
