• APO Productivity Databook 2025

  Koji Nomura and Mun S. Ho, Asian Productivity Organization, Keio University Press, 2025.09,  Page： 219

  　View Summary

  The 18th edition of the APO Productivity Databook provides standardized productivity and growth comparisons across 33 Asian economies and several global reference countries. Spanning more than five decades (1970–2023), it evaluates Asia’s structural transformation, post-COVID-19 recovery, and projections through 2035. Productivity enhancement is emphasized as the foundation of sustainable long-term growth, either by increasing output with given inputs or by maintaining output while reducing resource use. Enhancing national productivity metrics remains a fundamental policy imperative. To support this goal, the Databook systematically evaluates historical performance and prospects based on harmonized data and robust methodologies.
  It establishes baseline indicators of economic growth and productivity across 33 Asian economies, including the 21 APO members and 12 non-member Asian countries. The APO21 consists of Bangladesh, Cambodia, the Republic of China (ROC), Fiji, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, the Islamic Republic of Iran (Iran), Japan, the Republic of Korea (Korea), the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkiye, and Vietnam. The twelve non-member economies in Asia are Afghanistan, the Kingdom of Bhutan (Bhutan), Brunei Darussalam (Brunei), the People’s Republic of China (China), the Maldives, Myanmar, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), consisting of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Afghanistan and the Maldives are being incorporated for the first time in the 2025 edition. In addition, Australia, the European Union (EU), France, Italy, Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US) are included as reference economies.

• Hydropower-Led Economic Growth in Bhutan: Development of Industry-Level Productivity Account, 1990–2022

  Koji Nomura, Contemporary South Asian Studies, Springer, 2025.05,  Page： 259

  　View Summary

  This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Bhutan’s economic growth and productivity dynamics from 1990 to 2022, with a special focus on hydropower development. Through the construction of detailed industry-level productivity accounts, the study addresses significant data gaps in Bhutan’s national accounts, measuring outputs and inputs across various sectors and developing quality-adjusted labor and capital input series. The analysis reveals the complexities of Bhutan’s hydropower-led growth strategy: while the sector has driven substantial economic growth, its contribution to overall productivity improvement has been limited. The electricity sector shows gains in labor productivity but declining capital productivity, resulting in stagnant Total Factor Productivity (TFP). The study also examines productivity trends in non-electricity sectors and addresses potential “Dutch disease” effects on manufacturing and agricultural competitiveness. International comparisons place Bhutan’s productivity performance in a regional context, revealing significant gaps in productivity performance, particularly when compared to India, Bhutan’s largest trading partner and a regional economic benchmark. This comparative analysis informs policy recommendations for achieving more balanced and sustainable economic growth. The findings are particularly relevant for Bhutan’s Thirteenth Five-Year Plan (2024–2029), which emphasizes productivity improvements across all economic sectors. The book serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, economists, and researchers interested in development economics, particularly those focused on the unique challenges faced by small, landlocked nations pursuing sustainable economic development.

• Energy Productivity and Economic Growth: Experiences of the Japanese Industries, 1955–2019

  Koji Nomura, Springer, 2023.01,  Page： 268

  　View Summary

  Energy costs in the economy amount to only a few percent of gross domestic product, but their importance to economic growth is much greater than their apparent number. Energy is used in almost all production and consumption activities, and energy price changes induce significant spillover effects throughout the economic system. More importantly, stable and affordable access to energy is a critical factor in determining the rate of capital accumulation in a domestic economy and, hence, labor productivity growth. The expansion of production per hour worked is achieved by using more and higher quality capital, which requires more energy to operate. This book aims to provide robust observational facts on energy productivity improvement (EPI) and to analyze the mechanisms of EPI achieved in Japan’s economic growth from 1955 to 2019. Linking the productivity account with energy statistics enables us to attempt not only to develop a better indicator of energy productivity but also to evaluate the EPI with other significant changes in the production process, such as capital productivity, labor productivity, and even the overall efficiency measured in terms of total factor productivity. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and policymakers seeking to understand the role of energy throughout the economy and for economic planners seeking to ensure the efficient use of energy now and into the future.

• "Productivity Dynamics in the Maldives: A First Outlook Based on the Maldivian Productivity Accounts, 1970–2023, with Comparisons to SAARC and Fiji"

  Koji Nomura

  (United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific)   2025.10

  Research paper (other academic), Single Work

  　View Summary

  This report presents the first comprehensive productivity analysis for the Maldives based on the newly developed Maldivian Productivity Accounts, covering the period 1970–2023 and including cross-country comparisons with SAARC members and Fiji. The results show that sustained economic growth of 5–7% per year from 1970 to 2019 was supported by a nearly thirtyfold expansion of capital input and a twentyfold increase in labor input, including migrant workers. However, improvements in TFP have remained close to zero or even negative. The capital–output ratio reached 5.3 in 2023—the highest in the SAARC region—reflecting low investment efficiency and possible overaccumulation. Transitioning from quantity-driven to efficiency-based growth is essential for the Maldives to achieve sustainable productivity and long-term economic resilience.

• "Bhutan’s Productivity Trends, 1990–2023: Findings from Bhutanese Productivity Account 2025"

  Koji Nomura

  (United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific)   2025.08

  Research paper (other academic), Single Work

  　View Summary

  The Bhutanese Productivity Account 2025 provides updated productivity estimates for 1990–2023, developed jointly by the DMDF and Keio University. While Bhutan’s hydropower-led growth model has achieved rapid labor productivity gains, the report reveals persistent stagnation in total factor productivity (TFP) and a steep decline in capital productivity. Capital input accounted for nearly 84% of GDP growth during this period, yet TFP contributed negatively on average, underscoring a pattern of capital accumulation without corresponding efficiency gains. The electricity sector, despite significant investment, saw long-term declines in TFP due to rising construction costs and limited output growth. Moreover, positive spillover effects to non-electricity industries have been limited, with manufacturing showing only modest improvements. International comparisons highlight a widening TFP growth gap between Bhutan and countries like India. Growing electricity demand from data centers and rising import dependency pose further challenges. The report emphasizes that Bhutan’s growth cannot be fully understood through labor productivity alone. To achieve sustainable, high-quality growth aligned with the 13th Five Year Plan, Bhutan must improve productivity in non-electricity sectors through investment in innovation, human capital, and structural reform, while addressing electricity supply constraints and maintaining macroeconomic resilience.

• "Bhutan’s Productivity Stagnation: Hydropower and Beyond"

  Koji Nomura

  Hydropower-Led Economic Growth in Bhutan (Springer)     207 - 237 2025.05

  Part of collection (book), Single Work

  　View Summary

  This chapter analyzes Bhutan’s productivity dynamics from 1990 to 2022, focusing on industry-level and aggregate total factor productivity (TFP) and capital and labor productivity. Hydropower plays a pivotal role in shaping Bhutan’s economic structure, driving substantial gains in labor productivity, especially after the commissioning of major plants. However, these gains have been offset by a capital productivity decline, leading to overall TFP growth stagnation. Despite hydropower’s importance in Bhutan’s economic expansion, its long-term contribution to TFP remains limited due to the capital-intensive nature of large-scale projects, which strains capital efficiency. The chapter also highlights productivity patterns in the non-electricity sector, where labor productivity gains are more prominent, but TFP improvements remain minimal. These findings emphasize the challenges of sustaining productivity growth in Bhutan’s hydropower-led economy and point to the risks of over-reliance on a single sector. A dual strategy is necessary: fostering internationally competitive industries that leverage hydropower while ensuring affordable and stable electricity supply to meet the expanding domestic demand. This approach is essential for achieving long-term sustainable economic growth.

• "Measuring Capital Accumulation in Bhutan"

  Koji Nomura

  Hydropower-Led Economic Growth in Bhutan (Springer)     171 - 205 2025.05

  Part of collection (book), Single Work

  　View Summary

  This chapter constructs industry-level capital inputs for Bhutan from 1990 to 2022, addressing the absence of a capital stock account in the Bhutanese System of National Accounts (BTSNA). It develops time-series investment and stock matrices to create industry-specific, quality-adjusted capital inputs. A key methodological adjustment is the shift of hydropower investments from a work-in-progress basis to an installed basis, ensuring that only fully operational assets are included in capital services. Large-scale hydropower projects often experience time lags of over 10 years from construction to operation, so this adjustment is crucial for accurate productivity assessment. As of early 2022, Bhutan’s nominal net capital stock is estimated at Nu 905 billion, roughly four times its GDP—the highest ratio in South Asia. Despite being one of the most capital-intensive economies in the region since the 1990s, Bhutan’s capital inputs continued to expand rapidly, averaging 9.5% growth per year between 1990 and 2022. This rapid growth occurred not only in the electricity sector but also across non-electricity industries, with an even faster accumulation after the democratic transition in 2008. While data limitations remain, this study establishes a vital framework for understanding Bhutan’s capital dynamics and lays the foundation for future refinements.

• "Bhutan’s Aggregate Output: A Review"

  Koji Nomura

  Hydropower-Led Economic Growth in Bhutan (Springer)     15 - 51 2025.05

  Part of collection (book), Single Work

  　View Summary

  This chapter comprehensively reviews Bhutan’s aggregate outputs from 1990 to 2022, focusing on expenditure-side GDP and hydropower-led growth. It reconciles multiple versions of the Bhutanese System of National Accounts (BTSNAs) to address inconsistencies and construct reliable long-term series for key indicators such as gross fixed capital formation (GFCF), exports, and imports. A key concern in constructing industry-level productivity accounts is investment, which in Bhutan is closely tied to imports. Ensuring alignment between final demand by product and investment measurement is crucial for accurate productivity analysis. The chapter highlights the significant role of hydropower in driving Bhutan’s nominal GDP growth, accounting for 34.0% of growth from 1990 to 2008 and 22.1% from 2008 to 2022. Bhutan’s high share of investment in GDP, which surpasses that of other South Asian nations and often exceeds China’s, is noteworthy. However, the capital-intensive model raises concerns about resource allocation efficiency and productivity improvements. This chapter lays the groundwork for a deeper understanding of Bhutan’s economic trajectory and future challenges, which will be explored in greater detail in the following chapters.

  　View Summary

  Since the early 21st century, Asian economies have sustained high growth, while Japan has remained in a prolonged low-growth phase. This report discusses long-term productivity improvements across Asia and the institutional vulnerabilities revealed during the pandemic. For South and Southeast Asian economies with high growth potential, building institutional foundations will be essential to make use of the demographic dividend over the next 15–25 years. The expanding income effect presents Japan with a valuable opportunity for renewed growth. Growth co-creation will be achieved not through abstract frameworks, but through strengthened institutional responsiveness.
