Tengfei Wang
(United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific)
Paper short abstract:
Many developing countries in Asia have put different national policies to support digital transformation in business and industry. This paper aims to review such policies in selected countries in Asia and investigate the effectiveness of national policies.
Paper long abstract:
Many countries in Asia have put in place various national policies to promote digital transformation of business and industries in their countries. However, existing literature is scant on how effective these policies are.
This paper aims to fill in this gap. It aims to investigate the effectiveness of policies and the monitoring mechanisms, if any, of policy effectiveness. Case studies, questionnaire survey and interview will be conducted in selected countries in Asia. It is envisaged that the sample for analysis includes not only the large or advanced economies such as China or Republic of Korea but also other developing countries in the region such as Thailand.
From a practical perspective, the key findings of this study will provide policy makers with importance reference to policy design, implementation and monitoring relating to digital transformation.
