This paper describes how Ireland drastically improved its economic position through its adoption of what came to be referred to as the Celtic Tiger strategy. Because of the surprisingly striking similarities between Ireland and Guam and the finding that the Celtic Tiger strategy represents nothing but "sensible policies "for enhancing economic growth, we believe that Guam can employ those elements of the Celtic Tiger strategy that worked, and modify those elements that did not. By doing so, Guam can transform itself into the Pacific Tiger.
DUBLIN -- Sir Anthony O'Reilly long has been a symbol of Irish resurgence, a national rugby hero and raconteur who conquered the U.S. corporate world before returning home to oversee a sprawling business empire. That empire now shows signs of unraveling. Sir Anthony, once America's highest-paid chief executive while leading H.J. Heinz Co., has seen the value of his holding in his Dublin-based global newspaper group, Independent News & Media PLC, plunge to $52 million from more than $1.1 billion just 18 months ago.
China, Poland, Kenya, Australia and India have studied Ireland's rapid bust-to-boom economic turnaround in search of inspiration to bolster their own competitiveness.

DUBLIN - The outside world applauded last December when Ireland unveiled its harshest budget in a generation. Stinging cuts and higher taxes were needed to tame a runaway public deficit and give the limping Celtic Tiger some of its roar back, officials said. Three months later, Ireland has become something of a poster boy for good behavior in bad times, held up as an example to Europe's other debt-laden economies, particularly Greece. Analysts say that by biting the bullet, the Irish government has managed to hang on to a degree of investor confidence and lay the foundation for an eventual return to economic growth.
