By David W. Conklin. This article presents the structure and content for a course on international business strategies and public policies. The course is based on cases that deal with a wide variety of public policies in countries throughout the world. Students are encouraged to develop non-market strategies for many business sectors, and thereby to enhance their skills in analyzing public polices. The initial set of cases deal with the evaluation of a nation’s public policy paradigm, considering the role of government intervention, as well as economic reforms that underlie the transition towards free markets. The second set of cases focus on political impediments to investment, analyzing the implications of various restrictions and regulations and the need to do business in the context of economic instability as a result of policies that cause inflation and devaluation. The third set of cases examines public policies that are designed to attract investment, including special economic zones, tax havens, subsidies, and high-tech infrastructure. The final set of cases deals with public polices that are shifting to the global level. The protection of intellectual property, competition policy, and environmental protection increasingly involve international action. Finally, a lecture/discussion on trade and investment agreements provides an integrating mechanism for the course.

Everyone loves an exciting and adventurous train ride, but this isn't just a train ride. It's the Eastern and Oriental Express, the luxury train that travels through the heart of Southeast Asia! Following the success of the famous Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the luxurious E&O Express made history on its inaugural run in 1993 and continues to recapture the golden age of rail travel through one of the world's most beautiful and exotic regions. The E&O Express has it all: while passengers absorb the beauty of the lush countryside, they also enjoy comfortable and elegant accommodations, delicious Asian and European food and, of course, superb service. Join us as we experience this wonderful trip. Our journey begins in Bangkok, Thailand, a beautiful city with friendly people. Along the way the train stops in Malaysia, and we take a land tour to the island of Penang, the "Pearl of the Orient" in the Strait of Malacca, to see Georgetown, a World Heritage site famous for its architecture and cultural diversity. We tour the city by trishaw, a quaint three-wheeled vehicle, and visit the Indian Market before returning to the train. Our train journey ends in Singapore, a cosmopolitan city and world financial center with a multi-cultural population, but our experience isn't complete until we see the city itself. While there we visit a Taoist temple built in 1850 and explore Little India to learn more about that culture. The E&O Express truly is a unique way to experience the full wonder of this remarkable region.
