Both studies use simulations of a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model. The objective of this report is to present the quantitative analysis of the impact of trade liberalization in Asia-Pacific economies on the sectoral allocations of labor demand to compare the impact of liberalization on labor markets in different Asia-Pacific economies.
