Publisher Description: The long-term physical and economic development of many Asian cities is not sustainable. Governments at all levels need to pay greater attention to the planning and management of cities in the region if the growing challenges of poverty, inequality, and sustainability are to be addressed. Faced with limited resources, and other constraints, local economic development planning is a challenge. This publication provides a tool kit to prepare and implement city economic development plans, with a particular focus on helping cities in developing countries. It was designed to assist in the development of those plans, and is also useful in analyzing investment and development opportunities. |
