    About this ebook

    The book provides a picture of a sector beset by intrinsic complexity that is compounded by regulatory hurdles. In addition to the common thread of institutional reform, the book is able to highlight some country-specific issues that need special attention. Brunei's small domestic market, Lao People's Democratic Republic's (PDR) land-locked position, and Singapore's limited labour force are some examples of issues that need to be addressed while further developing the logistics subsector.
