| Summary: | This research seeks to examme the nexus between external debt and
economic growth in Asian countries under the linear estimation of panel error
correction model. The analysis adopted two different panel data sets of seventeen
and twelve Asian countries over the periods of 1988-2006 and 1981-2006
respectively as a mean to test the consistency of the result under two different
estimations. The presented results in panel-17 suggest that there is an absence of
long-run causality linkage between external debt and GDP. However, unidirectional
relationship has found to be established from ED to GDP in the short-run. This
results is however does not reinforce by the estimation under panel-12. The existence
of the relationship between GDP and EXP indicates that Asian countries have
supported the export-led growth strategy in which the extent of economic growth
does not fully determine by external debt level among these countries. |
