A research on the formation of labor market in transition economies was conducted in Mongolia and Laos. Their economic rates of return to education are lower than the average rate for developing countries.

A survey research on entrepreneur was conducted in Laos. As a result, we found that experiences of studying and living abroad often stimulated new business.
We studied the reasons of obstacle for the conclusion of Free Trade Agreement. The bottleneck for the conclusion of FTA is the adjustment costs of institutions on the differentials in industrial development, the lobby action of interests groups and differentials in governance. Less
