Transnational Organized Crime in East Asia and the Pacific | Subtitle : a threat assessment
Abstract : East Asia and the Pacific have experienced rapid
economic and social changes during the past few
decades and faced the considerable regulation
challenges these changes create for public authorities.
This report takes a look at the manner in which
criminal enterprises have developed alongside
legitimate commerce in recent years. Drawing on
official statistics, academic studies, and interviews
with law enforcement officials, it attempts to outline
something about the mechanics of illicit trade:
the how, where, when, who, and why of selected
contraband markets affecting the region. It also
endeavours to give the best reading of the available
data on the size of these markets. Though the list of
contraband markets discussed is not comprehensive
and it is impossible to quantify the value of these
markets with any precision, these estimates are
offered to prompt public debate on areas of great
public policy significance.
