Abstract
Summary: a brief statement of the content of the report
The entire South East Asian region is a dynamic area for the furniture sector
and the current globalisation process has deeply affected the furniture
industry in South East Asia, South Korea and Taiwan. The global crisis is
showing its effects also in these economies but with different degree due to
the economic characteristics' differences. Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand
are leading furniture exporters. Vietnam is another very important emerging
country, with its impressive growth in production and exports, particularly
towards the United States, and because it provides a very cheap productive
base for the furniture sector. On the other side, most of the leading
furniture companies in Singapore and Taiwan have important production
facilities in China and other Asian countries.
