  • Message from the President
    Welcome Message from the President We are very glad to be back to Bangkok to hold the 14th biennial convention of the East Asian Economic Association (EAEA14) again. Our 5th convention (EAEA5) was held here in 1996, the year before the Asian Financial Crisis began. Subsequently, we witnessed the painful process of economic rehabilitation in the region’s economies. Almost 10 years later, another big shock or the Global Financial Crisis hit them, though they were able to adjust better this time. The EAEA aims “to promote the advancement of economic science with particular reference to Asian economic problems.” We have been tested as to what extent this goal is attained in each convention. Let us turn these challenges into great opportunities. The region’s economies are often regarded as more resilient than those in other regions. They have achieved remarkable progress in industrialization, international trade and investment, macroeconomic management, and human capital formation, but they still face old and new problems in these and other areas. We can learn from these experiences by examining facts, analyzing mechanisms, and proposing policies and then share the knowledge with other regions. This convention heavily owes to many individuals and several private and public institutions. I sincerely hope that their efforts and contributions be fully utilized and rewarded with two days of hot and serious debate, which would be the best way to express our gratitude to them. Akira Kohsaka, Ph.D., Prof. President of the East Asian Economic Association Kwansei Gakuin University 1 Message from the Dean The Faculty of Economics, Chulalongkorn University, is delighted to host the 14th International Convention of the East Asian Economic Association during 1-2 November 2014 in Bangkok.
