Crisis Debt Crisis
For much of the next decade after the economic crisis,
we can reasonably expect to see
• Weak global growth
• Pressure from overcapacity
• Persistently high unemployment
• Volatility in the financial markets
• Costlier capital
• A great expanded role for governments
• A much larger burden of regulation and taxation for all
Post crisis Trade-Related Scenario
• The rising tide of economic nationalism temps nations to look
inward-driven more by self interest rather than by the outwardlooking aspirations of collective interest that shape a deeper
commitment to globalization
• A tough business cycle exacerbated by sharply rising
unemployment and a muted recovery, could well reinforce the
tendencies of the localization alternative
• An era of heightened trade friction, increased protectionism

Spending power has already been shifting away from the
richest countries towards a growing middle income bloc
• In 1980, the seven largest economies in the world in USD terms
were all developed economies
• That list now includes all of the BRICs
By 2050 China and India will together account for
nearly 50% of global GDP--about the same as the
G7’s current share, which is expected to decline to 25%

Change in Geo-Politics…
Retrospectively, the 20th century was dominated by
the American ideologies
Americanization
American Ideology
American Democracy
• Democracy is better than Dictatorship
American Capitalism
• Capitalism is better than Socialism
American Culture
• Western culture is better than all the rest
Challenges facing Americanization
Political Landscape
Non-democratic state e.g., China has had the
greatest success meeting the basic human needs
of its people and pulling them out of poverty
Economic Landscape
Capitalism is now split into distinctive and
competing forms, with government owning and
directing large parts of the economy in some of
the most critical sectors
Cultural Landscape
Modernization did not bring homogenization;
culture and identity are powerful enduring
forces between and within societies
By hosting the Olympic Games, China, for example,
has symbolically and emotionally reclaimed its
historic centrality and its international legitimacy
Globalization from Above VS. Globalization from Below
Multipolarity
Territorialization
of Politics
State Actors
Nation-State
Nonpolarity
Non-State Actors
Global Civil Society
De-territorialization
of Politics
From a “World of Enemies” to a “World of Threats &
Risks”
Corsairs
Private Armies
Terrorists
Pirates
Mercenaries
Hyper-conflict
Totalitarian regimes slaughter one another to establish supremacy
without acknowledging any law of war or even any arbitrators
In the age of perpetual uncertainty, fear determines
the attitude towards life
Change in Geo-Climatics…
Four Southeast Asian countries are likely to face more
severe consequences than the global average due to
limited adaptive capabilities
Climate-Related Multilateral Arrangement
Mexico Accord
Copenhagen Accord
•Reduction of GHG Emission by
both developed & developing
countries;
•Low Carbon Development
Pathway;
•Reduction of emissions through
deforestation and degradation
(REDD+);
•Copenhagen Green Climate Fund
& Technology Transfer.

Sectoral Approach for
Heavy Emitters - e.g. Steel,
Cement, Electricity , Paper
pulp …(possibly including
agriculture sector)
Finance
Carbon Leakage
Technology
A handful of mutually agreed concepts are noted in the
“Copenhagen Accord”, yet loads of contentious issues with
diverting views on details remain
Global Forces & Trends Towards Low Carbon Society
Government
• Green Growth as a new
economic growth engine
• Stricter rules on “less green”
imports & provision of
adaptation support to maintain
competitive edge of domestic
industries.
Citizens
Business
• Improvement of energy
efficiency to reduce costs
• Voluntary emission reduction
• Environmentally Awareness
/ Go Green
• Health Concern
for “green” image
• Low Carbon, Technologydriven
Carbon Leakage/Off-shoring to
Developing Countries??
Manufacturing 
Services
Change in Consumers’
Preferences - “Eco-buying”
Examples
•
•
•
Korea  To become the World 7th Green Power by 2010 and 5th by 2050
Japan  Carbon Minimization in All Sectors
US,
Toward a Simpler Life Style that Realize Richer Quality of Life
Coexistence with Nature
UK, China, India etc.
CC is affecting or will affect a wide range of industry
sectors, some more than others

Thailand’s Strategic Intent
Market-led
Economy
Remove the systemic impediment that currently render Thai
enterprises uncompetitive and make Thailand an unattractive
place for place for multi-national corporations to do business
Knowledge
based Society
Move forward to overcome the shortfall in both managerial and
technical knowledge by drawing heavily on the outside world.
There is no way back. Thailand must move forward to be
knowledge-based.
Entrepreneurial
Spirit
For Thailand to be adaptable in its AEC strategy, and to reenergize the growth engine in the economy, entrepreneurialism
will be crucial.
Regional
Integrated
Thailand ’s greatest opportunities, and greatest competitors, lie
within 2000 km. of Bangkok. Thailand needs to become a tightly
integrated insider in this region
Globally
Connected
Thailand has long history of self reliance, but will fail to realize its
potential if it continues to pursue this approach. The country’s real
opportunities going forward are to become the best globally connected
country in this region

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or
it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it
will starve to death.
It does not matter whether you are a lion or a
gazelle.
When the sun comes up, you better start running.
African Proverb
“If You want to go quickly,
go alone;
if you want to go far,
go together.”
