CNN.com - Asian Economy: Five Years After The Crisis - July 3, 2002
http://cnn.com/2002/BUSINESS/asia/07/02/asia.crisis/index.html

Extractions: HONG KONG, China (CNN) On July 2, 1997 the Thai baht collapsed, unleashing a wave of currency devaluations and stock market crashes across Asia. It was the day that seven years of easy credit, excessive borrowing, and inflated asset prices ended in crisis. Five years later, how is Asia faring, and how much has it changed? There are as many different answers as there are countries, analysts say. Just look at the three nations that received bailouts from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia. "My view is that the jury is still out on the IMF's form of intervention," says Anthony Norman, partner at Sydney-based Ferrier Hodgson. "I'm not sure the one size fits all style of IMF solutions imposed on economies that need emergency loans is necessarily the right formula."

CNN.com - Asian Techs Feel The Job Cut Sting - August 1, 2001
http://cnn.com/2001/BUSINESS/asia/08/01/hk.asiaitjobcuts/index.html

Extractions: Languages Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW By CNN's Kristie Lu Stout HONG KONG, China (CNN) More than 200,000 job cuts have been announced in the last few months, and Asia's millions of tech workers are beginning to feel the sting. Asia, a major center of manufacturing for the technology sector, is wrestling with slowing growth and plunging demand. To fight off the global downturn, tech heavyweights from Tokyo to Taipei are swinging the axe. "It's getting bad and it's going to get worse," says Hong Kong-based executive search consultant Paul McGrory at EL Consulting. "In Asia specifically, there is a latency effect, a knock-on effect," McGrory adds. "What happens in the U.S. typically comes two years later. This is a negative effect and it's coming very quick." Japanese electronics giant NEC plans to lay off 4,000 workers. IT mammoth Fujitsu is launching a massive early retirement scheme. And in Taiwan, notebook maker Acer sacked almost 1,000 employees.

Extractions: Languages Spanish Portuguese German Italian Korean Arabic Japanese Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 Car stocks rose on Friday in Korea, in a week where they posted strong sales and bankrupt Daewoo unveiled its new Kalos HONG KONG, China (CNN) On a choppy day of trade, most Asian markets made it into the black by the close Friday. South Korean stocks spent most of the day trying to work their way back from chip-induced losses. Seoul's main index, the Kospi, ended down 0.37 percent at 856.72. But the Kosdaq, with its emphasis on smaller shares, climbed into positive territory, ending up 0.22 percent at 76.48. Many markets lacked strong direction, with Japan closed for a holiday. That sense of directionless for Asia was compounded by a mixed day on Wall Street on Thursday, when Nasdaq dropped sharply but the Dow Jones industrial average rose. The market in Japan is closed Friday for a holiday, Constitution Day, and will be closed again on Monday, for Children's Day. It will resume trading Tuesday.

CNN.com - Asian Anger Grows Over U.S. Steel Tariffs - March 6, 2002
http://cnn.com/2002/BUSINESS/asia/03/05/aust.steel.biz/index.html

Extractions: SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) Outrage over the U.S. decision to impose tariffs on steel imports is building among Asian producers with Japan, Korea and Australia saying they will likely seek action over the move from the World Trade Organization. The European Union has already said it will seek WTO intervention. But U.S. Trade Representative Robert Zoellick told a Washington press briefing that the EU did not come to the steel issue "with clean hands". U.S. President George W. Bush announced the tariffs of up to 30 percent late Tuesday. They will take effect from March 20 and last for three years. The key steel producers affected include Japan, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Russia, Ukraine, Germany and Brazil, plus smaller makers like Sweden and Australia.
