This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of the economic power of the ethnic Chinese, known also as overseas Chinese, Chinese overseas or Chinese diaspora, was a late 20th century phenomenon. It was partly the result of the rise of the Four Little Asian Dragons in the 1970s, and was speeded up by the tempo of globalization towards the end of that century. This book explores the ethnic identity and boundary of the Chinese as minority groups in foreign lands, and as sub-groups among the Chinese themselves. It examines prominent personalities that had wielded considerable influence in the ethnic Chinese communities in the economic, social and educational arenas. It also discusses the type of politics that had impacted their relationship with their mother country — China.Containing 16 papers presented at various international conferences in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China and Taiwan as keynote speeches and research findings which are predominantly unpublished in English, this book provides fresh perspectives and re-interpretations on the issues of ethnicity, leadership and politics in the ethnic Chinese worlds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most standard works on Malaysian politics, which tend to treat Chinese politics as one component part in the complex mosaic of multi-racial politics in Malaysia, this book focuses on the unique configuration of Chinese political development within that mosaic. Highlighting the importance of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) in engaging the active participation of Malaysians of Chinese descent in the mainstream politics of their adopted homeland, the author charts that organization's history, social and ideological background, and pivotal role in the events surrounding the defeat of communist insurgency and the attainment of independence.

Download or read book The Colour of Inequality written by Muhammed Abdul Khalid and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book provides an alternative insight to the debate on inequality in Malaysia, by focusing on the distribution of wealth or assets, rather than income. Despite tremendous increase in national income, the wealth gap in Malaysia is alarmingly high and extremely skewed. For instance, the top 0.2 per cent of depositors in ASB has about 1,133 times more than the bottom 80 per cent of depositors combined. This gap is echoed by the fact that approximately two-thirds of Malaysian workers earn less than RM3,000 per month, and about 90 per cent of Malaysians have nearly zero savings. The current policies are not facilitating improvements in this wealth gap, which could lead to aristocracy where birth, not hard work or talent and effort, matter the most in wealth accumulation. This book explores possible policy interventions that can be undertaken to ensure that economic growth is equitably shared, which is vital for a stable and prosperous society"--Page 4 of cover.
