Chris Milner, Professor of International Economics, University of Nottingham

The literature review of FDI and productivity spillovers is impressive … The examination of practical applications of the model are clear, well-written and have a very good and insightful discussion…

In summary, this is a very good piece of work. It addresses an important issue for a very important world economy, and Deng shows a high degree of competence in using modern simulation (and econometric) modelling techniques in an impressive piece of applied work.
