Abstract
Dynamics of Cross Border Industrial Development in Mekong Sub-region is a well researched book assessing the applicability and feasibility of policies for industrial development in Thai border towns in less developed regions with mostly small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Maneepong focuses on the impacts of central and local government involvements, and how entrepreneurs operate in her selected border towns of Mae Sai, Mae Sot, Mukdahan and Nakhon Phanom. Specifically, she sets out to investigate which factors contribute to, or hinder, industrial development in Thailand's border towns.
