Global Market Information Database Available

http://micro189.lib3.hawaii.edu/ezproxy/details.php?dbId=51826

We now have access to the Global Market Information Database (often called "gee-mid" GMID) from Euromonitor. Country coverage includes Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bangledesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, China and Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, North Korea, Pakistan, Phillipines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkmenistan and Vietnam.

Data and narratives will include consumer/lifestyle/market analysis, industry and country information, demographics and other statistics, compiled by Euromonitor staff in the field.

Please note that this database is licensed only for UH students, faculty and staff (and East West fellows). Walk-ins and other visitors will not be able to access the database on their own while in the library because each user has to first go through the proxy server (even while in the building) and then create and use a personal account with Euromonitor.

Though the interface just recently changed, it still has room for improvement... but, once you get the feel for it, there is a lot of primary information that is often hard to find in one package. This should be a good compliment to the EIU reports and profiles.
