that originated in Singapore, it was improbably grim and bloody. Last month Jack and 49 others boarded a transport aeroplane and parachuted onto an island. Their mission was simple: kill or be killed. Jack picked up grenades and worked his way to an abandoned factory. He crouched for safety, thinking he had escaped detection. He was wrong. After a hail of bullets, silence descended. Jack had once again failed to pass level one.
Industrial policy was a big factor in the tigers’ take-off. Even the International Monetary Fund, traditionally a sceptic, published a lengthy paper this year about the success of their government-led models. But what works for a developing country does not necessarily help a wealthy one. In the 1970s, the tigers could follow others. South Korea’s focus on heavy industry borrowed liberally from Japan. They could also license advanced technology, as Taiwan did in its semiconductor sector.
