Abstract
⺠We investigate the determinants of labor force in 12 emerging Asian countries. ⺠We also make projections of labor force in those countries for 2010-2030. ⺠We find the earnings elasticity of labor supply is negative for men and positive for women. ⺠Labor supply is association positively with education and negatively with age. ⺠The labor force is predicted to increase in all 12 countries in the next 20 years, but eventually decline in several of them.
