过去的几年中,在一些国家和地区,尤其是在“亚洲四小龙”——韩国、新加坡、台湾和香港飞速发展的经济推动下,亚太信息技术(IT)市场已有了强劲的增长。总的说来,尽管存在差异,而且正是源于其差异,亚太地区向IT的供应商们展现了一个极具吸引力的机会。差异是很惊人的。一方面,亚太地区中各国的经济状况差异很大,有的已相当西方化,而有的则还很不发达。日本是亚太地区中经济最强盛的国家。在经历了过去两年的经济衰退之后,日本看来已准备尽快重新恢复经济,适度增长。被称为“亚洲四小龙”的国家和地区虽然地域较小,但IT市场增长很快。在这些国家和地区中相当一段时间经济发展缓慢,但这正是为IT供应商带来机会的原因所在。亚太地区的某些目前还不太发达的国家,尤其是中国,一旦经济发展出现转机,很可能为IT供应商提供极大的市场机会。没有任何一种单一的投资战略能够在这些差异很大的国家和地区都获得成功,也没有哪个IT供应商可以用同一种商业模式在这一地区中的所有国家均获得竞争胜利。
Over the past few years, the Asia-Pacific information technology (IT) market has been strong in some countries and regions, especially the “Asian Tigers” - South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong’s rapid economic development. increase. Overall, despite the differences, and because of the differences, the Asia Pacific region has presented IT suppliers with a very attractive opportunity. The difference is astonishing. On the one hand, the economic conditions of various countries in the Asia-Pacific region are very different. Some are quite Western and some are still underdeveloped. Japan is the most economically strong country in the Asia Pacific region. After experiencing the economic downturn in the past two years, Japan appears to be ready to resume the economy as soon as possible and grow moderately. The countries and regions known as the “Asian Four Little Dragons” have a small geographical area, but the IT market has grown rapidly. In these countries and regions, the economic development has been slow for quite some time, but this is precisely the reason that brings opportunities for IT suppliers. Some countries in the Asia-Pacific region that are not yet well-developed, especially China, are likely to provide IT suppliers with great market opportunities once the economic development turns around. No single investment strategy can succeed in these very different countries and regions, and no IT provider can win competitive competition in all countries in the region with the same business model.
