Asia Economic Monitor, December 2011 is a semiannual review of emerging East Asia's growth and policy issues. It covers the 10 members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations; People’s Republic of China; Hong Kong, China; Republic of Korea; and Taipei,China. This issue forecasts that economic growth in emerging East Asia will continue to moderate to 7.2% in 2012 from 7.5% in 2011—as growing sovereign debt problems in Europe and an anemic US economy raise the spectre of a deep global economic downturn.
