When a great storm comes into the harbor, how will PJ and his friends stay safe?

Welcome to Harbor Days where your children will explore the lessons of the ocean and discover their strengths through a variety of boat characters in the harbor. The boats have a very good friend in PJ the Lightboat who guides them and Ort who encourages them to work together and help each other. At the end of the day they learn, “it is always a great day in our harbor when we are friendly and kind to each other.” PJ is a loving teacher of kindness and encouragement but he will also teach about safety, the environment, boats, and include new vocabulary words for your child to learn. “I would like it if we became friends, then we could share our adventures and learn together what the ocean truly has to reveal for us.”

This book reviews the contemporary issues in international monetary and financial economics (such as financial liberalisation, crisis, exchange rate determination, capital control, domestic capital market reform, etc.) in an emerging financial market such as Thailand from a welfare economic p- spective, highlighting the social welfare implications of these issues. This 3 book also suggests a normative social approach (as formalised in the new welfare economics paradigm) (see Islam 2001a, b for a discussion of this ; concept) for analysing and addressing these issues and formulating appr- riate policies. Undertaking the above tasks, the asymmetric information paradigm 3 and other elements of the new welfare economics paradigm are adapted in analysing the international financial issues of Thailand, their causes and economic and social welfare consequences. The last two decades have been a critical period for Thailand’s dev- opment. From the mid-1980s to the beginning of the 1990s, the Thai economy performed remarkably well and was a showcase for the world economy. Having achieved a double-digit growth rate for a brief period, Thailand in the late 1980s was regarded as the fastest growing economy in the world by the World Bank and the IMF. With prospects of further rapid economic growth, the Thai government accepted Article VIII of the IMF, which required Thailand to liberalise and deregulate its financial system.
