The_Economy_of_Sabah_Malaysia

Rainforest, Environmental preservation, Economic development, Malaysia, Sabah, Borneo

The Economy of Sabah , Malaysia is a study in the economic history of the most ecologically important region of Malaysia. It spans a period of about 150 years (1850 – 2000), from the early period of its existence under the Sultanate of Brunei through the long period of colonial rule under the British North Borneo Chartered Company and direct rule under the British Crown to being an independent state within the Federation of Malaysia. Its wealth of abundant natural resources and natural beauty are both a boon and a bane to its relentless quest for development. This book studies carefully the role of state and macro global factors, in the context of its history, and in particular the effects on the capacity of the state to intervene not only in uplifting the socioeconomy of Sabah, but also in preservation of the tropical rainforest of northern Borneo. The book is especially suitable as an academic resource to explore a framework of investigation into the various aspects of the socioeconomy of Sabah, and Malaysia generally.
