  • Ethnic Differences and Economic Change in a Local Malaysian Setting
    South East Asian Studies, Vol. 14, No.3, December 1976 Ethnic Differences and Economic Change in a Local Malaysian Setting Robert L. WINZELER* It has long been recognized that ethnic complexity in Malaya (West Malaysia) has an important economic dimension, that different ethnic sectors tend to be predominantly associated with one or another facets of the economy-though state­ ments about such associations often take the form of overly-broad generalizations. It has also long been noted that the ethnic composition of the country, and the ethnic organization ofits economy are phenomena which derive from developments which occurred during British colonial rule; and therefore that as processes ofchange began to take effect in the post-independence period, economic and other aspects of ethnic relations would be altered. Silcock (1965), for example, discussed the effects ofindustrialization on ethnic relations and suggested that such processes were likely to lead for a number of reasons to increased ethnic competition, at least before any long-term settlement was achieved, and Swift's (1967) observations about tendencies toward land concentration among Malays suggest similar conclusions. Again, how­ ever, while the validity ofstatements about such tendencies would seem to have been born out by subsequent developments they were made in the first place in the absence of much sociological information about ethnic organization and processes of ethnic change at the local level. Finally, the above observations were made before the onset of political and economic changes which came in the wake of the west coast post election ethnic riots of 1969-a watershed in Malaysian political and, evidently, economic develop­ ment.
