Who's Really Who in 21st Century Business
In this new, revised and updated edition of his best-selling book, Geoff Hiscock looks at how Asia's billionaires are coping with the dramatic changes to the Asian business scene that began in Thailand in July 1997 and gradually spread across the region.
There are an astonishing number of surviving winners from the old membership of 'Asia's Wealth Club', testament to their power and agility, alongside many new high-flyers.
Geoff Hiscock finds a Japanese recovery led by the Internet, communications and financial services which is producing even more Japanese members of a very different "wealth club". He reveals that there will be two Asias - one rebounding fast and one slowly, depending on how closely the various economies and companies are hooked up to the "globalisation express".
