Description

This general history of the Malaysian economy over the 1800s and 1900s es a survey of the pre-colonial era. It integrates the historical experiences of Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak as a case study in the onset of modern economic growth. Particular attention is paid to explaining Malaysia's signal success in achieving a relatively smooth shift away from the primary commodity export economy of the colonial period to near NIC status by 1990.
