Privatization and public enterprise reform in the Asia‐Pacific region

John Cameron

Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy, 1997, vol. 2, issue 2, 239-249

Abstract: Pakistan faces critical economic development problems, with the quantity and quality of livelihoods being a central issue. Much policy emphasis was put on liberalization in the first half of the 1990s, and a central plank in liberalization was privatization. The paper outlines the implications of privatization for the quantity and quality of employment, real output, fiscal and social policy. There are reasons for concern about the likely impacts of privatization in all these dimensions. The conclusion points to the need for systematic monitoring and evaluation of the privatization process.
