title: Factors influencing recruitment and retention of academic staff in South-East Asia.
abstract: South-East Asia has a number of developing and developed countries. The economic standings of these countries are different and influence the number of staff in each academic department. The quantum of clinical work they are expected to perform and the remuneration vary enormously. The retirement age, facilities for research and criteria for promotion are different. The health care delivery system, the financial status and outlook of the universities also differ. These factors operate differently in the South-East Asian countries and determine the recruitment and retention of academic staff.
