Evolution of Government’s Role on Economic Development 23rd January, 2009 J I C A Masaki Miyaji
Japan Today • Small Islands surrounded by sea ( Land area : 338 Sq Km, less than 1/2of Zambia, Its 70% is mountainous) • Population : 127 Million (X 12 of Zambia) • GDP : over 4 Trillion US$ ( 2nd largest in the world) • No mineral resources ( Coal mines were closed 30 years ago) • 60% of Japan’s Food consumption is based on import • Japan’s only but the most important resource is “Human Capital Resources” • Japanese Economy stands on Manufacturing with Technologies and highly controlled Skills
The Importance of Human Capital Resources Development Experiences and Instructions of FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) “Mozal Project” in Mozambique Japanese experiences in developing Investment by the Private Sector (Large enterprises and MSMEs)
Japanese experiences in developing Investments by the private Sector (Large Enterprises and MSMEs)
Impacts of micro, small & medium-sized manufacturing firms (2004/2005) Notes : MSMEs are companies with <300 regular employees (<100 in wholesaling & services, <50 in retailing, eating & drinking places) or with capital stock of < \300 million (US$ 2.7 mill) (< \100mill in wholesaling, < \50 mill in services, retailing, eating & drinking places) Small enterprises are companies with <20 regular employees (<5 in wholesaling, retailing & services)
Japan’s Policy fostering Economic Development and Changing Business Climate 1945~54 Reconstruction Era 1955~72 High Growth Era 1973~84 Stable Growth Era 1985~ Transition Era
1945~54 Reconstruction Era ●The War destroyed production & distribution facilities & systems ●The economy was democratized such as: ① Land Reform② “Anti-Monopoly Law” established ③“Trade Unions” allowed④ “Conglomerates” resolved ● “Priority Production Systems” as a core industry ①Iron-Steel manufacturing ② Shipbuilding ③ Coal Mining ●Fostered SME’s (established SME’s Agency) ●Improved diverse infrastructure, such as Laws, Systems & Institutions and Electricity, Railway, Port, & Road ●Established Financial Institutions to supply ample Funds
RECONSTRUCTION DAYS(1945-1954) ~Establishment of Institutional Framework~ Small & Medium Enterprise Agency (1948) Laws/ Regulations Banks Insurance Schemes Financial Schemes Small & Medium Enterprise Credit Insurance Law MSMEs Default Small Business Finance Corporation People’s Finance Corporation Credit Guarantee Association Law Corporative Union Law Credit Guarantee Association Medium-sized Enterprises Micro, Small Enterprises
Promoting modernization and upgrading in hardware • “Pyramid structure” was developed • Adverse effects of expanded sub-contracting system (i.e.; pressure from parent company) became problematic. • Tackled to solve “Dual Economy” : Gaps (productivity, wages, technology, funding, etc.) between large and small enterprises widened • Annual GDP growth was over 10% until 1973 • Japan became the World No.2 in terms of GNP in 1968 1955~72 High Growth Era
HIGH GROWTH DAYS(1955-1972) How to Tackle “Dual Economy” ~Coping with “Dual Economy”~ Productivity ◎ Some Prescriptions ~STRONG~ LARGE FIRMS Wages ◎ Modernization of Equipments or MSMEs Technology ◎ Funding ◎ Lower Corporate Tax for MSMEs Exemption of MSMEs from Anti- Monopoly Law Adverse Effects Productivity × Revitalization of MSMEs Nationwide Wages × Technology × Sub-contracting Systems Funding × ~WEAK~ MSMEs
Phase Two: Stable Growth Era ~ 1973~84 Stable Growth Era • Promotedmodernization & upgrading in software • “Core” business structural shifts of enterprise was inevitable by business climate change due to oil crises • Subsidies in place to industrial structural shifts, in designated areas • Stronger Yen currency damaged industries and regional economy • Energy-saving measures taken by enterprises • (led to international competitiveness)
Business Climate Change Human Recourses Development Small & Medium Enterprise College Oil Crisis Oil Crisis Hard Structural Changes Soft ・Information Soft ・Human Capital Hard ・Technology Upgrading Dissemination ・Modernization of Equipments ・Government Financial Institutions Small & Medium Information Centers ・Tax Regimes ・Legal Institutional Framework STABLE GROWTH DAYS(1973-1984) ~Paradigm Shift~ Towards Knowledge Intensification
Strong Yen encouraged enterprises to invest overseas • Low interest rate policy led to economic boom • “Bubble economy” burst in 1991: “lost decade” • -Globalization led to enterprise restructuring • -De-regulation led to change in human resource • management & subcontracting systems • Recovery since 2002 due to export to emerging markets 1985~ Transitional Era
