The strength of the book lies in the author’s deep familiarity with the country where he was educated up to secondary level, taught for some time in the University of Malaya, and was even involved in the planning of population censuses. The book is indispensable to policy-makers and social scientists who wish to seek a greater understanding of the demographic issues facing the country UR - https://doi.org/10.1355/9789814620253 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789814620253 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789814620253/original ER -
