Investments were not the only good thing that Malaysia gained from Japan, but also its culture and technical expertise. As a result, Malaysia went through a phase of “Nipponization” by assimilating Japanese culture and best practices. It was during this period that a joint venture between Heavy Industry Corporation of Malaysia and Mitsubishi Motors Corp. successfully produced the very first Malaysian car, the Proton Saga, in 1985. The bilateral relationship was further enhanced when Malaysia and Japan established the Malaysia-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (MJEPA) in 2005.

This article aims to describe the urgency of critical studies concerning the regulation of foreign workers by exploring existing legal problems with national commitments to ratify international agreements regarding free trade, with a case study in Indonesia. By using normative and juridical approach with a variety of approaches both the law approach, conceptual approach, case approach and comparative approach, the study found that the regulation there is an inconsistency clause regarding special competencies that must be owned by foreign workers, including the selection and use of terminology in Act No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower. Thus, this study offers a constitutional solution due to the regulation of the subordinate foreign workers on international trade commitments which in turn negate the constitutional goals of creating the welfare of domestic workers.

  • Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent
    BIBLIOGRAPHICINFORMATION Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent: The Unofficial Appropriation of Rain Forest Title Rent by Rulers in Insular Southeast Asia Between 1970 and 1999 Source http://www.geocities.com/davidbrown_id/Diss/DWB.Fintext.doc Author 1 Brown, David Walter Author 2 NA Author 3 NA Publication/Conference Unpublished Doctoral Dissertation Edition NA Document Type Dissertation CPI Primary Subject East Malaysia CPI Secondary Subject Political economy; Sabah ; Sarawak; Geographic Terms Sabah; Sarawak Abstract NA CentreforPolicyInitiatives(CPI) PusatInitiatifPolisi http://www.cpiasia.org 1 Chapter 1 Introduction The world’s tropical rain forests are important socially and environmentally as well as by virtue of their contributions to economic growth. As these forests are logged, their social values as generators of rural incomes and their environmental services as biodiversity reserves, carbon sinks, soil reserves, and watersheds tend to diminish. Despite these facts, most governments in the tropics are unable to resist logging these forests in favor of national economic objectives, including: creation of a forest industrial sector, higher employment, positive balance of payments, and increased government revenues. However, given the high economic stakes that can be obtained from their forests, it is seems counterintuitive that tropical governments rarely succeed in optimally harnessing government revenue from this valuable natural resource. This staggering loss of revenue to developing countries obviously has important implications for economic development. Timber revenue could be used, for example, to finance the kind of strategic industrial policies that allow the high performing Asian economies to achieve high levels of economic growth. This dissertation argues that states with rain forests are often unable to collect optimal revenue from the massive profit earned by timber companies that harvest state forests because this profit already has a hidden destination.
