APEC Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) was formed in 1989 in response to the growing interdependence among Asia-Pacific economies. Today, APEC includes all the major economies of the region and the most dynamic, fastest growing economies in the world.An essential and excellent site. Do not miss their member economies page and the APEC-related websites.

Asian Studies WWW Virtual Library
The Asian Studies WWW Virtual Library (ASVL) was established in March 1994 by the Australian National University. The ASVL provides an authoritative, continuously updated hypertext guide and access tool to scholarly information resources on the Internet. It deals with the Asian continent as a whole, as well as individual Asian regions, countries, and territories. Excellent and essential but a bit overwhelming in scope.

APEC SME Crisis Management Center
SMEs are normally unable to identify crises and risks at the global level and it is usually too late when they perceive and recognize a crisis. "APEC SME Crisis Management Center" has therefore been created to assist SMEs in identifying crisis in an earliest manner, overcoming the impacts of global economic challenges, and offering suggestions for response measures. The site enables access to the monthly issues of the APEC SME Economic Crisis Monitor. Excellent site. Do not ever miss (it should be mandatory reading) the excellent report on Principles and Checklist of Financial Crisis Management.

APEC SME Innovation Center
The APEC SME Innovation Center has two major goals: one is to help APEC member economies exchange information on SME innovation and the other is to establish cooperative networks among APEC members for SME innovation.
