The paper explores the dynamic evolution of higher education and research in East Asia in China, Hong Kong SAR, Taiwan China and South Korea, and in South East Asia in Singapore. It refers also to the earlier case of Japan where higher education developed rapidly in the 1960s/1980s, and Vietnam where the take-off has yet to occur.
