From the Paper:

"Globalisation can be defined as the ongoing economic, technological, social, and political integration of the world that began after the Second World War. However, there are also institutional and social changes that are taking place within the geographic borders of nation states, though these are much more difficult to quantify. Institutional changes include modifications in policy, in industrial organization, and in the administration of laws and regulations that govern the behavior of economic agents. Globalization is impacting the institutional framework in both developing and industrial countries; it is changing the way in which governments view their developmental role in society (ADB, 2001, p.161). This essay aims to discuss the globalization trend in the Southeast Asian region, highlighting policies undertaken by Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and Japan. It also discusses the obstacles they face in adopting globalization."
