  • Okinawa's Economic Future and Asia
    沖縄経済の将来とアジア ー脱米軍基地依存の展望― Okinawa’s Economic Future and Asia: Looking Beyond the U.S. Military Presence Moritake Tomikawa (Professor Emeritus, Okinawa International University & Policy Advisor to the Okinawa Prefectural Government) Introduction １．Okinawa Prefecture’s Asia Economic Strategic Initiative ２．Current State of Okinawa’s Economy ３．Okinawa’s Industrial Development ４．Asia’s Bridgehead and Soft Power (Foundation for Development) ５．U.S. Military Bases on Okinawa and its Economy ６．Redevelopment of Former U.S. Military Bases Outlook for Okinawa’s Economy Keywords Asian dynamism, Asia’s Bridgehead, soft power, ratio of base dependency in Okinawa, economic effect by bases, redevelopment of former military bases, Okinawa’s economic development potential Introduction Okinawa Prefecture’s economy is very strong. Economic growth in China and other Asian nations has expanded in a multi-tiered fashion often referred to as a “flying goose pattern,” lifting the number of foreign tourists and companies as well as the amount of foreign investment heading to Okinawa. Although the U.S. military bases on Okinawa defined the postwar society and economy, dependency on these bases which used to 56.8% in 1957 prior to reversion, currently stands at 5% (Figure 23) and their presence has significantly declined. Although the bases bring employment and consumption, they are not a business enterprise or other such economic entity, so they do not grow based on market principles and are fixed to the extent that their budgets do not increase such that their ratio within the economy has declined. Consequently, the more the Okinawan economy develops, the lower the ratio of dependency on these bases is.
