About Asia Rebounds: Post 1997

The financial crisis that began in 1997 dealt a devastating blow to many Asian economies. What was at the time perceived to be a localized currency and financial crisis soon spread to other South East Asian countries - including Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. By late 1997, the contagion effect extended its reach to South Korea, Hong Kong and China. Almost a decade later, how has Asia rebounded? In the first episode, we look at the Bangkok experience and tracked their path to recovery.
