CSR Asia - Corporate Social Responsibility in Asia

CSR Asia - Corporate Social Responsibility in Asia: "Many countries in the Asia-Pacific region have traditionally been seen as emerging markets with rapid growth rates. With the global recession now impacting on developing countries that is all set to change. Whilst China and other growing economies are aspiring to attain national growth rates of 5-8% in order to maintain employment, the reality is that many of the poorer sub-regions in Asia are still very much developing and subject to renewed challenges of an economic slowdown with evidence that poverty, human health and standards of living are now being negatively impacted."
