My collaborator and former PhD student Olivia Quek joins as a postdoc Waseda University. Last year she defended her Ph.D. thesis at the University of Tokyo. Her main advisor was Yasuyuki Sawada, now the Chief Economist at the Asian Development Bank. She also won a 2.5 million yen JSPS grant for support of her research. Olivia's dissertation resolves an economic puzzle related to the rice market in the Philippines.
