  • The Drivers Behind Outward Foreign Direct Investment in the Chinese Telecommunication Sector: a Case-Based Analysis
    UNIVERSITE CATHOLIQUE DE LOUVAIN LOUVAIN SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT The drivers behind outward foreign direct investment in the Chinese telecommunication sector: A case-based analysis. Supervisor : Prof. Dr. Jean-Christophe Defraigne Project (Research) Master Thesis submitted by Midas De Bondt With a view of getting the degree Master in Management ACADEMIC YEAR 2014-2015 Foreword This thesis was motivated by my sincere interest in emerging economies the different management challenges rising from these economies. The mere fact that the world of management and especially the world of international management has changed so significantly since I started my studies, was a never ending motivation. Even though this interest had always been present, it was not until the first year of my master’s degree that this interest really surfaced during a course called “European Economic Policy” at the Louvain School of Management. It can thus hardly be called a surprise that I was delighted that Professor Jean- Christophe Defraigne accepted to be my thesis promotor. I want to start by thanking him for the excellent support and trust that he has given me to throughout the year and a bit leading up to the completion of this thesis. To continue I would like to thank all the other academics that have influenced me – and thus the content of this thesis - throughout my academic curriculum. Obviously the Louvain School of Management has played the most important role in this aspect, but I would not do justice to plenty of others by not naming them. I therefore want to thank all the professors that have taught, supported and challenged me at the KULeuven, The London School of Economics and Political Sciences and the Wharton School.

The government is Internet 15 meanwhile forging ahead with a new high-profile tsunami warning system and ambitious e-government initiatives. Despite justly deserved optimism, Thailand faces a number of keen challenges. It has one of the most complex markets environments in the world, characterized by a maze of interlocking investment structures, lease-based infrastructure concessions and government intervention in the commercial marketplace. To circumvent a constitutional mandate requiring state ownership of “strategic” sectors such as telecom, Thailand introduced build-transfer-operate arrangements, or concessions, in the early 1990s with the two licensed monopolies, TOT and CAT. The concessions were negotiated at different times and with different terms, and some companies enjoy considerable advantages over their competitors. Thailand’s commitments to the WTO and to a bilateral trade agreement with the U.S.

  • Digital Journalism: Making News, Breaking News
    MAPPING DIGITAL MEDIA: GLOBAL FINDINGS DIGITAL JOURNALISM: MAKING NEWS, BREAKING NEWS Mapping Digital Media is a project of the Open Society Program on Independent Journalism and the Open Society Information Program Th e project assesses the global opportunities and risks that are created for media by the switch- over from analog broadcasting to digital broadcasting; the growth of new media platforms as sources of news; and the convergence of traditional broadcasting with telecommunications. Th ese changes redefi ne the ways that media can operate sustainably while staying true to values of pluralism and diversity, transparency and accountability, editorial independence, freedom of expression and information, public service, and high professional standards. Th e project, which examines the changes in-depth, builds bridges between researchers and policymakers, activists, academics and standard-setters. It also builds policy capacity in countries where this is less developed, encouraging stakeholders to participate in and infl uence change. At the same time, this research creates a knowledge base, laying foundations for advocacy work, building capacity and enhancing debate. Covering 56 countries, the project examines how these changes aff ect the core democratic service that any media system should provide—news about political, economic and social aff airs. Th e MDM Country Reports are produced by local researchers and partner organizations in each country. Cumulatively, these reports provide a unique resource on the democratic role of digital media. In addition to the country reports, research papers on a range of topics related to digital media have been published as the MDM Reference Series. Th ese publications are all available at http://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/projects/mapping-digital-media.

  • Annual Report from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020
    Digital Telecommunications Infrastructure Fund 2020 Annual Report From 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020 2020 Annual Report - Digital Telecommunications Infrastructure Fund Message from the Asset Management Company April 5, 2021 To Unitholders, SCB Asset Management Co. Ltd. would like to submit the 2020 annual report of the Digital Telecommunications Infrastructure Fund (“The Fund”) for the period between 1 January 2020 and 31 December 2020 to unitholders. In 2020, SCB Economic Intelligence Unit (SCB EIC) estimated the Thai economy to contract by -6.1% YoY due mainly to the Covid-19 pandemic that had sparked in Q1/2020 before spreading its wings and affecting the Thai and global economies. However, in Q4/2020, the Thai economy recovered at a much better rate than anticipated thanks largely to the recovery of private sector consumption, export and increasing inventories. The contraction rate in Q4/2020 was down to -4.2% YoY, which was lower than the market estimate (EIC’s estimate was -5.4% YoY). As a result, the Thai economy experienced -6.1% contraction YoY in 2020. The reason the Thai economy in Q4/2020 bounced back more strongly than anticipated was partly due to the private sector consumption, which quickly resumed as a result of the government’s stimulus packages through several schemes such as Travel Together, Half/Half and Shop and Enjoy the Return. The recovery of the country’s export sector clearly improved the production of its industry sector. In Q4/2020, the Manufacturing Production Index (MPI) fell -0.9% YoY, which also improved investment atmosphere in the export sector.
