The meta‐production function approach is applied using enterprise survey data for the 1986–90 period. It is found that the rapid growth of the TVE sector was mainly driven by total factor productivity (TFP) growth and expansion of capital stock. In the state sector, however, the TFP was decreasing during that period. The TVE sector was still technically less efficient in the mid‐1980s but it was catching up with and about to reach the efficiency level of the state sector by the end of the 1980s. It is also found that industry‐wide allocative inefficiency between the two sectors was significant for skilled and unskilled labour but less so for capital.

The study applies a Griliches-type production function and uses an enterprise panel data set collected between 1980 and 1992 in four coastal cities. It is found that while some policies such as reductions in the proportion of planned output and the introduction of the contract system improved productivity, the overall size of reform effects on productivity has been negligible.J.

A simple but popular model is applied using purchasing power parity income estimates. Contrary to the view recently advanced by Krugman, we find that productivity improvement was an important factor contributing to the rapid East Asian growth. For many East Asian economies such as Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong, a large proportion of higher than average growth is attributable to technological progress.
