Description
Malaysia is one of a kind. It is a unique and rare gem, a melting pot with an infinite mixture of ingredients. As Malaysians we are made from various races and different languages but this country blends us all together, coalescing all of our strengths and weaknesses. Blessed with abundant natural resources and harvests, from tin to rubber, palm oil, timber, bauxite, and of course petroleum, Malaysia is a rich country.
As a nation we have all of the essential ingredients to flourish, but are we flourishing? It is shocking how this small country of 31.8 million people managed to assume the title of the regionโs most unequal nation, the most inefficient energy user, and the home to one of the worldโs largest financial scandals, 1MDB.
Rich Malaysia, Poor Malaysians grew out of the authorโs search for enlightening answers to Malaysiaโs problems as well as his wishes and proposals for a better Malaysia. It is his attempt to bring pressure upon decision makers and policy specialists, as well as to create awareness amongst the public of the need for solutions to the problems plaguing the country.
