Book excerpt: In recent years, privatisation has fallen out of favour in many countries because the underlying political factors have not been well understood. This book examines Malaysia’s privatisation programme, focusing on how political constraints resulted in the failure of four major privatisations: the national sewerage company (IWK), Kuala Lumpur Light Rail Transit (LRT), national airline (MAS), and national car company (Proton). It considers why developing countries such as Malaysia might want to embark on privatisation, the factors that lead to policy failure, and what is needed to make it work. It shows clearly that political motives driving privatisation often dominate purely economic considerations, and thus it is necessary to analyse privatisation within the specific country context. It argues that failure in the Malaysian case was due to political considerations that compromised institutional design and regulatory enforcement, leading to problems associated with corruption. It concludes that privatisation does not necessarily improve incentives for efficiency or enhance the finance available for capital investment, and that successful privatisation depends on the state’s institutional and political capacity to design and manage an appropriate set of subsidies. Overall, this book is a comprehensive examination of privatisation in Malaysia, providing important insights for understanding the political economy of this process in other developing countries.

This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Malaysian economy has gone from the doldrums to being a juggernaut, which has posed many challenges to the health care industryespecially hospitals. Public hospitals in Malaysia have faced an uphill task in upgrading health care services to levels compatible with international standards. In this book, Hong Poh Fan, a senior adviser on facility management for a hospital developer, explores the transition that public hospitals have undertaken with the support of the private sector. The author zeroes in on critical issues, including: successes and challenges of privatization implementation; hospital experiences in a Southeast Asian context and how those experiences can be applied elsewhere; and ways that private development of hospitals has changed over time as well as the rationale of privatization. When people think of what the hospital industry needs, they often focus on having enough doctors and nurses, but when facilities management is lacking, services can be compromised no matter how employees are working at a facility. Join the author as he shares lessons learned over a fifteen-year period of hospital privatization in this detailed examination of how to improve health care.

Book excerpt: As the first comprehensive study on privatization in Malaysia, this paper compares financial and operating performance of a sample of 24 firms before and after privatization. The 24 firms were privatized via public listing on the Malaysian exchange. Measures that improve following privatization include profitability, output level, and dividend payout; leverage declines. We also observe increased linkages between ownership and corporate governance with such performance changes. By and large, our results are similar to the results of the directly comparable multi-country studies of Megginson, Nash, and van Randenborgh (1994), Boubakri and Cosset (1998), and D'Souza and Megginson (1999).
