Abstract: Abstract of dissertation entitled The Patterns and Characteristics of Japanese Investments in China Submitted by Wong Sik Ho, Calvin for the Master of Arts in China Area Studies at The University of Hong Kong in June 2003This study examines the spatial distribution of Japanese Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in China and the Japanese FDI induced cluster developments in China's 5 major cities: Shanghai, Dalian, Beijing, Tianjin and Guangzhou. The empirical results show that Japanese FDI is concentrated mainly in the central or northern coastal areas in China regardless of the administrative or city level. Meanwhile, Japanese FDI concentrates in capital-intensive sectors of Electrical Machinery and Equipment, Transport Machinery and Business, and labor-intensive sectors of d104ile and Fiber, and Chemical. More importantly, clusters are found in China's 5 major cities. The Locational Determinants of Japanese FDI in China are government policies, the comparative advantages of coastal areas, proximity, cultural link and the agglomerations effect. On the other hand, iii the reasons behind the sectorial distribution would be the WTO Accession of China and the low cost of labor. More importantly, clusters in China are formed through the upgrade of local economies from investment-driven stage to innovation-driven stage together with the traditional and unique business structure of "Vertical Keiretsu" of Japanese Multinational Corporations. The accession to specialized inputs and talents, the accession to institutions and public goods and government roles also contribute to the formation of clusters in China. The exclusive phenomenon of "Vertical Keiretsu" is unique for Japanese FDI, however previous literatures seldom relate it to the Japanese FDI induced cluster developments in China. In order to fill this research gap, my dissertation focuses on the Japanese FDI induced cluster development with the linkage to the "Vertical Keiretsu." Some unique findings concerning the issue of Japanese FDI induced cluster development in China are yielded. It is hoped that this study can provide some insights to readers to understand the Japanese FDI in China from another perspective.iv DOI: 10.5353/th_b2675644 Subjects: Investments, Japanese - ChinaWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
