12、bacco, and textiles industries accounted for the bulk of Thailand’s exports (Tam- bunlertchai, 2002; Piamphongsant, 2007). Manufactured products in this period were mostly directed to local consumers and exports from the

25、g the last decade (Piamphongsant, 2007). In the early 1990s, Thai exports to the EU were led by labor-intensive and resource-intensive products such as footwear, precious stones and jewelry, tapioca products, and canned

26、seafood. However, shares of the products from these industries have been falling while scale-intensive and science-based products such as computer and integrated circuits exports have been expanding from the mid-1990s on

27、wards</p><p>  Thai exports to Japan have also shifted towards scale-intensive and science- based products. In the early 1990s, Thai exports to Japan were dominated by labor-intensive and resource-intensive

28、products. From the mid-1990s onwards, shares of products from these industries began to fall while the share of scale- intensive and science-based products began to rise. At present, share of computer, semiconductor devi

29、ces, and motor vehicles exports to Japan are rising rapidly.</p><p>  Exports from Thailand to the ASEAN markets are different from those to other countries. As ASEAN countries have similar factors of produc

30、tion and resources to Thailand, Thai exports to ASEAN markets have been dominated by electronics products. Besides electronics exports, leading exports from Thai- land to other ASEAN countries include agricultural produc

31、ts or resource-intensive products such as rice and sugar.</p><p>  Finally, the rise of science-based products and capital-intensive products in resource and scale-intensive industries (especially electronic

32、s, petroleum, and chemicals) can be seen in other regions such as China, South Korea, and Hong Kong. Motor vehicles, plastics in primary forms, and chemical products have also been dominating exports from Thailand to reg

33、ions such as South Asia, the Middle East, Australia, Africa, and South America.</p><p>  In short, export structure in the early stages of the country’s international trade (1960s) was dominated by agricultu

34、ral goods. Later in the 1970s to 1980s, the country’s trade and export structures shifted from relying on resource-intensive products from the agricultural sector to manufactured goods which are intensive in both resourc

37、ddition to the devaluation of foreign currencies from the Plaza Accord, factors that contributed to the rapid increase in FDI inflows to Thailand are: i) investment promotion policies which the Thai government had implem

40、1 International Trade Development</p><p>  The history of Thailand’s economic development is intricately linked to the trade policies the country has pursued. This is evident in the prominence of trade pol

41、icies in the National Economic Development Plans. The trade history of the country comprises four main phases, each corresponding to the dominant trade policy at the time.</p><p>  1950s-1960s: Import Substi

42、tution Trade Regime In the late 1950s, the Thai government started implementing policies which were aimed at preparing the country for the first Economic Development Plan in the 1960s. The first Economic Development Plan

43、 followed a traditional import-substitution strategy, imposing tariffs on imports, especially on finished products. Attention was given to nurturing the institutional systems which were necessary for industrial developm

44、ent (Brimble, 2002). Furthermore, </p><p>  In the 1960s, investments in the manufacturing sector expanded rapidly, especially in the import-substitution industries. This trend was so strong that despite the

45、 energy crisis in the 1970s, the Thai economy continued on a strong expansion path.</p><p>  1970s-1980s: Export-Promotion At the beginning of the 1970s, Thailand started seeing balance of payments problems

46、which were attributed to the import substitution policy (Brimble, 2002). In response to the problems, the Thai gov- ernment started looking into export promotion policies. The Thai government passed a new Investment Prom

47、otion Law which allowed the Board of Investment of Thailand (BOI) to have more power to provide investment incentives to foreign investors.</p><p>  There were large foreign investment inflows along with oth

48、er forms of capital to Thailand in the second half of the 1980s. Thailand saw substantial surpluses in the country’s balance of payments while also experiencing an expansion in exports and foreign-exchange receipts from

49、tourism.</p><p>  By the late 1980s, Thailand was amongst the fastest growing economies in the world. Between 1988 and 1990, Thailand’s economic growth accelerated to double-digit levels. It was also durin

50、g this period that newly industrialized economies (NIEs) started to outsource their productions to Southeast Asia. A large number of Japanese and NIEs-based firms relocated their operations to Thai- land owing to the app

51、reciation of the source countries’ currency. There were large inflows of export-oriented an</p><p>  1990s: Financial System’s Liberalization The inefficiencies of high protection were realized by the policy

52、 makers during the 1970s; and in the late 1980s and early 1990s, there were attempts to promote more openness and competitive- ness. These attempts came at a time of a global trend in financial liberalization, and polici

53、es during this time were strongly shaped by this trend. Policies during this period were focused on facilitating capital flows and making the Thai markets more internationall</p><p>  The Thai government dur

54、ing this decade continued to encourage export expansion. The Thai economy grew and exports from Thailand grew rapidly during this period. In 1997, Thailand experienced a severe financial crisis and the Thai currency d

55、epreciated much after 1997.</p><p>  2000s Until Present The Thai economy has been gradually recovering from the 1997 economic crisis. Average growth rates of the Thai economy, although positive, are still l

56、ower than that in the pre-crisis years. The Thai government is still pursuing export-promotion policies. However, Thailand is faced with intense competition in the world market as other emerging economies like China and

57、Vietnam which have lower wage rates are also keen on promoting their manufactured exports.</p><p>  2.2 Patterns of FDI in Thailand</p><p>  As discussed in the previous subsection on Thailand’s

58、 trade policies, import substitution strategy in the 1960s and 1970s attracted FDI inflows which were mainly channeled to import-competing industries. FDI inflows, however, began in earnest in the 1980s in export-oriente

59、d industries. This increase was mainly due to policy shifts in the mid-1970s towards export promotion and FDI promotion in export- oriented industries. These shifts also coincided with the realignment of major world curr

60、encies,</p><p>  Thailand benefited greatly from the rapid appreciation of the yen as the appreciation brought about a massive relocation of industries from Japan to the Southeast Asian countries including T

61、hailand. Much of these inflows were channeled to export industries, and to intermediate and capital goods industries such as automotive and electronic parts and components. These kinds of FDI have been the main drivers o

62、f the rapid growth in manufactured exports as well as the deepening of the industrial stru</p><p>  FDI trends in the 1990s were influenced by financial liberalization policies and punctuated by the economic

63、 crisis of 1997. In Thailand’s balance of payments statistics, FDI includes equity investment and direct investment loans or loans by foreign companies which have investments in Thailand. Historically, equity investment

64、accounted for a significant proportion of FDI inflows to Thailand. However, after the financial liberalization in 1990, the share of investment loans in the country’s balanc</p><p>  Following the depreciati

65、on of the baht in 1997, FDI inflows increased dramatically in both baht and dollar terms (Brimble, 2002)—FDI inflows in 1997 increased to over 3.6 billion USD from approximately 2 billion USD in previous years. This high

66、 level of FDI maintained throughout the next decade.</p><p>  The growth of FDI in the post-crisis period was characterized by a dramatic increase in mergers and acquisitions (M& A) as foreign firms took

67、 over Thai companies that faced severe debt and liquidity problems (Brimble, 2002). Other factors which contributed to the rise in FDI subsequent to the crisis are: i) the Thai government’s policy to encourage foreign in

68、vestments in the financial and banking sector by loosening conditions and regulations; ii) the recapitalization in joint ventures by foreig</p><p>  In terms of source countries of FDI that have historically

69、 been important, the countries which have contributed the most to Thailand’s FDI inflows are Japan, the US, Hong Kong, and Taiwan respectively. Other important source countries include EU members like the UK, Germany, an

70、d the Netherlands; while the most important ASEAN source country is Singapore. In these past few years, however, FDI inflows to Thailand from South Korea and China have also been increasing in value and importance.</p

71、><p>  2.3 Policies on FDI in Thailand</p><p>  The Thai government has been pursuing private-sector-led industrialization and FDI-friendly policies for the past six decades. Attention on private i

72、nvestment began in the late 1950s, resulting in the establishment of the Board of Investment (BOI) of Thailand in 1959 to overlook investment promotion programs under the government’s investment promotion law. In 1960, t

73、he investment law was promulgated. Since then, it has been revised many times and is still in use today.</p><p>  The BOI’s main responsibilities are to attract and facilitate foreign investors while ensurin

74、g their confidence in Thailand’s economic and political situation. So far, the investment promotion programs issued by the BOI have included strategies like tax incentives, reduction of restrictive trade measures, libera

75、l terms on the remittance of profits and other foreign exchange payments, and assurance to foreign investors that there will be no nationalization of private businesses.</p><p>  After the financial crisis,

76、the BOI provided some short-term measures to encourage new investment and to expand existing investments. Over the last decade, the BOI revised Thailand’s investment incentives to be more in line with WTO regulations (

94、<p>  在二十世紀(jì)八十年代下半期,有很多外商投資同其他形式的資本一起流入泰國(guó)。泰國(guó)在經(jīng)歷了出口膨脹和旅游業(yè)的外匯收入的同時(shí)也看到了收支平衡中的實(shí)質(zhì)性的盈余。</p><p>  到了八十年代后期,泰國(guó)成為世界上經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展速度最快的國(guó)家之一。在1988年到1990年之間,泰國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)達(dá)到兩位數(shù)的水平。也是在這個(gè)時(shí)期,新興工業(yè)化經(jīng)濟(jì)開(kāi)始到東南亞地區(qū)外包他們的產(chǎn)品。由于泰銖增值,大量日本和新興工業(yè)化的公

96、1990年,泰國(guó)政府接受國(guó)際貨幣基金組織的第8條條款,國(guó)際貨幣基金組織的協(xié)議。該條款的接受促使了這個(gè)國(guó)家經(jīng)常賬戶交易的自由化。此外,在未來(lái)之后的幾年,泰國(guó)政府將進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步放寬資本流動(dòng)、外匯控制和其他金融措施。在資本自由化之后根據(jù)短期貸款和有價(jià)證券投資有資本要素的流動(dòng)。</p><p>  泰國(guó)政府在這十年中繼續(xù)鼓勵(lì)出口擴(kuò)張。在這個(gè)時(shí)期,泰國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)和出口迅速增長(zhǎng)。在1997年,泰國(guó)經(jīng)歷了嚴(yán)重的金融危機(jī),在199
