Abstract

This article provides an introductory analytical survey of macroeconomic policies andoutcomes in seven Southeast Asian economies, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, ThePhilippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. It draws on the framework proposed byCorden (1996) to explain the generally good macroeconomic outcomes in the earlierWorld Bank study of the East Asian miracle economies. The main conclusion is that,notwithstanding the institutional and economic diversity of the seven, macroeconomicoutcomes have generally been good.
