Description
This case study is one of the five prepared for the 2016 APEC Economic Policy Report, which had a theme on structural reform and services.

Besides drawing out lessons applicable to APEC from these reforms, it also provides policy recommendations such as introducing clearer metrics with regard to market-opening reforms going forward.
