MPA/ID summers around the world: Going Hoosier
http://mpaid09.blogspot.com/2008/07/going-hoosier.html
MPA/ID summers around the world. Tuesday, July 1, 2008. A 1,000 miles drive west from Cambridge and we parked in Indianapolis. For the summer, I have swapped crimson for red - Harvard for Lilly. Big Pharma has public policy departments big time. My objective is to disentangle the interplay of price controls and health technology assessment that leads to the death spiral of pharmaceutical prices. Lilly is a terrific company: great people, great vision, great products. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

MPA/ID summers around the world: Non-tradable revisited
http://mpaid09.blogspot.com/2008/07/non-tradable-revisited.html
MPA/ID summers around the world. Friday, July 11, 2008. Last week, we had an unexpected heavy rain. The rain is good for this permanently water-scarce country, so we shouldn't complain. But it raised the humidity above 90%. To better deal with this heat and humidity, I went to have a haircut last Friday. It was unexpectedly cheap. It's not that I went to a boy's barbar shop in a street. Persuaded by JB (who himself had a cut in a boy's barbar), I went to a white-collar ladies salon with AC and LCD TV,.

MPA/ID summers around the world. Monday, July 7, 2008. Check out "The Desert Isle". Partially due to the fact that I've come into some more free time now that the Euro's are over I've decided to start my own blog. It's called "The Desert Isle: Life and Development in Cape Verde" and I would love for you guys to check it out. It now contains thoughtful and hopefully intriguing commentary on such heated development topics as. What does it mean to be a development success story? All the best,.

MPA/ID summers around the world: Elephants and Micro-finance
http://mpaid09.blogspot.com/2008/06/elephants-and-micro-finance.html
MPA/ID summers around the world. Monday, June 23, 2008. Hey my good friends! So here we are, in a rural area close to Hyderabad (in Andhra Pradesh, one of the poorest states in India). This was a field trip to micro-finance - joint liability groups. Now, the question that I have after this field trip is, to what extent large-scale uniform micro-credits are helping poor people around the globe? Are micro-credits many times just an expensive way of saving? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Feel free to p...

MPA/ID summers around the world: Almost there
http://mpaid09.blogspot.com/2008/08/almost-there.html
MPA/ID summers around the world. Thursday, August 28, 2008. This is my second last day at work for the summer. It has been an interesting experience I have to say. For me, the opportunity to spend a good 10 weeks in KL is really something I haven't had in the past 15 years even though I am a native Malaysian. Blame it on globalization. So what have I done this summer? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is a meeting point for MPA/ID 09’s to share. Their summer experiences around the world. This blog...
