Preferential Policies and Secondary School Attainment in Peninsular Malaysia.
Pong, Suet-ling
Sociology of Education, v66 n4 p245-61 Oct 1993
Examines the effects of Malaysia's preferential educational policies regarding secondary school attainment for the nation's three ethnic groups. Investigates trends in gender and socioeconomic differences within each ethnic group. Finds that, over time, Malays were increasingly more likely to attain secondary school than were non-Malays.
