Abstract: Abstract The decade of the 1980s may well be labelled by historians as the decade of change. Political and economic events, arguably best illustrated by the destruction of the Berlin Wall, in many ways changed the face of the globe. While the dramatic changes occurring in Eastern Europe and the states of the former Soviet Union may have attracted most attention worldwide, no area has been immune to change. Pacific Rim Asia (PRA) is no exception, although, with some exceptions, change in this geographic area was concentrated in the economic sphere.
