...1. Introduction The telecommunications sector in Malaysia has undergone significant physical and structural transformation in the past fifteen years. Between 1985 and 2000, the country’s telephone penetration rate rose by 540 per cent. Equally importantly, privatization and liberalization of the sector in the 1980s ushered in an era of regulatory reforms and competition in the sector. The market structure as well as the regulatory framework and institutions for the telecommunications sector continue to evolve. The real challenge lies in what to do after that – putting in place adequate regulatory framework and institutions that will ensure industry growth as well as protect consumer welfare. The on-going micro-regulatory reforms in the sector seek to fine-tune the regulatory mechanisms in the sector. This paper reviews the recent history and development of the telecommunications sector in Malaysia. Section 2 provides a brief historical account of the sector and the current structure of the sector. This is followed by a discussion on regulatory reforms in Section 3. Section 4 examines the impact of reforms in the telecommunications sector. Section 5 concludes by discussing the future policy agenda for the sector. 2. EVOLUTION OF INDUSTRY STRUCTURE 2.1. Physical Expansion The infrastructure sector plays a key role in Malaysia’s economic growth and development. The sector’s share of development expenditure in the various five-years plans implemented...

...CHAPTER 2 OVERVIEW ON IBS 2.0 INTRODUCTION This chapter will cover on the basic theories of the Industrialised Building System like the definitions, characteristics, types and the advantages of IBS. All of the information is important in improving on the understanding of this industrialised building system, in general. 2.1 DEFINITIONS Researches have interpreted IBS differently according to their understanding. Thus, resulting in various definitions of IBS. Among the early ones is Junid (1986) who proposed that IBS is a process by which the building components are planned, conceived, fabricated at the factory, and being transported and erected on site. The system has both the software and hardware, including system design, which is a complex process of studying the requirement of the end user, the market analysis as well as the development of the standardized component. Another researcher named Paris (1997) defined IBS as a system that uses an industrialised production technique, either in the production of component or during the assembly of building, or both. In addition, IBS is defined as a construction process that utilises techniques, products, components, or building system that involves prefabrication work, be it off-site or on site, under controlled environment, and being transported, positioned, and on-site installation with minimum site works. This definition is defined by the IBS roadmap (2003). Besides, other researches named Rahman and Omar...

...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1. Objectives Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWF) is the terms that often made headlines for their deals, their investments, their transparency and sometimes the lack of it. They hold the people’s money, hence the scrutiny from public eyes. They also have more aggressive risk appetite than the usual reserve manager of a country which uphold the liquidity, security, and profitability principals and that results in an even more detailed scrutiny to the SWF. The term SWF itself has first mentioned by Rozanov in 2005 when he wrote for Central Banking Journal1, but actually SWF have been around since before that. For example Government of Singapore Investment Corporation and Temasek Holdings, the two prominent SWF from Singapore have already been established in 1981 and 1974, respectively. SWF’s asset under management amount is also increasing overtime. Preqin estimated that the growth of asset is up from USD 3.07 trillion in December 2008 to USD 6.3 trillion in March 2015 as seen in Figure 1.1 Sovereign Wealth Fund Assets under Management2. Norway’s Government Pension Fund currently has the biggest asset among them which is amounting to USD 882 billion3. It is interesting to see whether the smaller counterparts from Asia also enjoys the rise in their asset as well. The objectives of this paper is to comprehend and appreciate the dynamics of smaller SWF from emerging and developing Asia (IMF definition)4. 1 Rozanov, Andrew, 2005. Who holds...
