Summary

This book provides an overview of the current state of Malaysia, looking at political developments and at governance, and discussing the impact of ethnicity, patronage and the reform movement. It includes an examination of business enterprise, exploring how control of 'corporate Malaysia' is interlinked with political developments. It discusses issues such as Islamization, and the nature of democracy, and assesses the likelihood of change as a result of the forthcoming elections and the imminent retirement of Prime Minister Mahatir.
