UNDP Report: Ethnic Minorities

The Malaysia Human Development Report is a study commissioned by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to provide an independent assessment of Malaysia’s growth and development policy choices in its quest to achieve developed country status by 2020. Thirteen national experts contributed research and insights into all aspects of Malaysia’s economy. This week, we speak to Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia’s Dr. Madeline Berma, Associate Professor in the Faculty of Economics and Management, about the role and concerns of ethnic minorities in the development process.
