Batam: Whose Hinterland?

By Sree Kumar

Batam's destiny has been shaped by its strategic location. Whose hinterland is it? This book takes a bold look at how political influences, both internal and external, have affected Batam's development. It challenges the view that economic development can be kept separate from the national political and bureaucratic forces that underpin its institutional basis.
