The Privatisation Program Series - Privatisation in the Asia Pacific

From its beginnings as a radical experiment, privatisation is now an established international movement. Governments throughout the world are embracing its many forms, from the denationalisation and deregulation of public monopolies to the restructuring of entire economic systems

The process of privatisation, which in its broadest sense means making an economy more private, is a complex one, encompassing a wide range of options to reach political and economic goals. This aim is to achieve higher living standards through improved resource allocation. That means more private ownership, more private management, more competition and a minimised state role in economic activity.

This is reflected in a speeding up of the privatisation of state-owned enterprises to promote strong, market-oriented development and to safeguard the substantial economic gains accomplished in recent years.

The Petroleum Economist, the leading international energy journal, established in 1934, the Centre for Economic and Business Research (CEBR), a leading London-based economic consultancy and Price Waterhouse, a world leader in advising and preparing state entities for commercialisation and full privatisation, have produced six reports, in a global series, specifically designed to. provide a complete listing of privatisation programmes for all countries and in all sectors.

Included are the following sectors:

Agriculture, agro-industry, aircraft, airlines, airports, airport services, alcohol manufacturers, aluminium, producers, automobiles, banking, betting shops, brick manufacturers, bus manufacturers, cellular telephones, chemicals, citrus fruits, coal mines, coffee plantations, communications, conference centres, co-operatives, corn manufacturers, dairy companies, defence contractors, duty free shops, electricity distributors, electricity generators, entertainment, fertiliser companies, fish-meal factories, food, furniture companies, forage companies, fruit processing companies, gas companies, gold mines, government services, heavy industry, health care, hospitals, hotels, hydraulic generation, insurance, iron and steel companies, lease financing companies, maintenance workshops, metals and mining, methanol producers, mortgage finance companies, nuclear energy, oil companies, oil refineries, packaging industry, paper companies, pensions, petrochemicals, petrol stations, printing, prison services, postal services, ports, power distributors, power generators, professional services, race-tracks, radio and television, railways, real estate, rice producers, roads and highways, salt manufacturers, sanitation, schools, seed technology, shipping, storage companies, telecommunications, timber industry, tobacco producers, trading companies, tourism, urban transport, water supply and many others.

Each report is published in the same format and style. There are listings of all privatisation's which have taken place and all privatisation's which are planned in 1996 and beyond. For many privatisation's, there is a short summary. The reports are easy to use and concise.

The publishers have contacted and gathered information from privatisation units or departments specifically set up by respective governments. Many of these countries have provided us with very specific information on their privatisation programmes.
The reports do not seek to analyse the success or failure of any country's programme. Instead, these reports have been specifically designed to provide all those institutions, who are interested in the privatisation concept, with as complete-as-possible programme of entities who have or who are about to be privatised.

These publications in The Privatisation Programme Series, for the first time, provide a comprehensive listing of the rapidly changing privatisation plans in Latin America, Central & Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa - an essential package for all those institutions and, indeed, government entities who now operate or who are interested in this rapidly growing international movement which is fast changing the world's economic system.
