Description |
Kertas ini bertujuan untuk melihat faktor-faktor yang berkemungkinan mempengaruhi usaha MNC bagi melaksanakan kegiatan berkaitan dengan perkembangan teknologi di negara-negara membangun. Faktor seperti pengubah suaian terhadap proses pengeluaran dan bantuan yang diberikan kepada firma-firma tempatan menunjukkan bahawa wujudnya kemungkinan aktiviti berkenaan. Terdapat bukti menunjukkan bahawa MNC berorientasi eksport di negara-negara membangun melaksankan kegiatan berkaitan dengan perkembangan teknologi di negara-negara tuan rumah demi keberkesanan penyertaan mereka dalam pasaran dunia.ABSTRACTThis paper examines the factors that influence the likelihood of MNCs undertaking technological effort in developing countries, using a data set obtained from a survey. Factors such as modification to the main production line by MNCs and assistance they rendered to local firms were found significant in indicating the likelihood of technological activities. The paper also provides evidence that export-oriented MNCs in developing host countries do undertake technological effort for effective participation in the world market.
