Readers are encouraged to replicate the results, using the Stata code provided. Enhanced provision of a high-quality and locally produced applied research for policymaking in all trade related areas, including trade facilitation, investment and regional integration, is a pillar of Asia-Pacific Research and Training Network on Trade (ARTNeT) operation. The guide concludes with a discussion of how the gravity model can be used in applied trade policy research.1 digital file (76 p. : ill.)application/pdfenASIA AND THE PACIFICREGIONAL PLANNINGTRADE FACILITATIONPOLICY RESEARCHMATHEMATICAL MODELTARIFFSECONOMETRIC ANALYSISLITERATURE SURVEYSSIMULATIONDATABASESINTERNATIONAL TRADEOPEN RESEARCHOPEN DATAMANUALSFAR EAST ASIASOUTH ASIABook
