From the Paper:

"Malaysia is an emerging nation from its British Colonial roots into the new "global economy," with perhaps the best position for sound economic growth of any nation in the world including the United States. In comparison, of course one must take into account the vast and varied aspects of the U. S. economy in relationship to the more limited Malay economy."
