Abstract: | One of my research subjects is to cross-nationally compare the labor markets at the forefront of development in Asia. This paper examines the structure of the domestic market in Malaysia and the development of the international labor market that centers on Malaysia. The formations of the diversified labor market in the contemporary Southeast Asia have shown unique evolutions with interactive relation between the specific indigenous socio-institutional factors and the market principles that pervade with an impact mainly from foreign direct investments. In addition to the stratification of the domestic labor markets of Malaysia, the multi-layered markets become prominent internationally causing widening of the labor gap. |
