Through bilateral trade growth as well as through competition with China in global markets, Southeast Asia's resource-abundant economies will become more intensive in natural resource-based exports and much less so in low-end, labor-intensive manufacturing such as garments. Both these effects will tend to increase demand for natural resources, one through a direct product market effect, the other by driving down the price of a complementary input, low-skill labor.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightGlobalizationEconomic growthDeforestationEconomic analysesInternational tradeTropical zonesLand tenurePovertyForestryDecentralizationGlobalizationChinaForestryTradeOpen accessGovernanceInternational trade and the natural resource curse in Southeast Asia: Does China's growth threaten regional development?AbstractCopyright 2005 Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
