This issue is bigger, more comprehensive and has generated even more interest than the inaugural issue. Response to our market survey was even higher. As promised, we would try to make each issue better than the last, so you will hopefully notice some positive changes. These include an expanded “Mood & Intentions” survey questions and analysis with responses up and from a better cross section across the Asia Pacific region, a bolstered “Economics” data and outlook provided by Morgan Stanley Research, an expanded and better segregated “OEM Activity” section, an adjusted “Market Dynamics” segment to dampen the sensitivity of underlying assumptions, and a visually-improved presentation format for our “Market Summary”.
