Despite being the third largest economy in Southeast Asia,
Malaysian entrepreneurial activity is under-reported in the
scholarly literature. This book extends such research by examining
the impact of entrepreneurship on its economy and evaluating the
existing systemic problems. The Malaysian economy has benefited
from the density of knowledge-based businesses and utilization of
the latest technologies in the manufacturing and digital economies.
However, Malaysia faces ongoing challenges, namely concentration of
wealth in the city, high regional unemployment and workplace gender
inequality. In regional areas, there is an over-reliance on
agriculture and necessity based entrepreneurship. Consequently,
entrepreneurial activity has been encouraged with the creation of
eco-systems, seed corn funding and provision of entrepreneurship
education to offer entrepreneurial career choices. Providing
recommendations and best practice for driving entrepreneurship and
entrepreneurial behaviours, this contributed volume presents the
first opportunity to reflect on both the success stories and
systemic problems related to effective entrepreneurial behaviour in
a South East Asian context.
This is Book 20 in the exciting new series of full-colour "Pocket
Walks", being small, practical sized guidebooks aimed at the less
serious rambler. Full colour photographs and colourful sketch maps
