Hear and Now... In Malaysia: Equality & Diversity Beyond 2020

We reach the third and final instalment examining “Sustainability and Inclusiveness Beyond 2020”.  Previously we’ve looked at the economy and the environment, now we reach society, and the question of inclusiveness.

 

As we approach the shores of developed nation status we examine new measurements for wellbeing to ensure an equal and prosperous nation.  Who are the groups at risk being left behind in the wake of economic progress and what can and is being done to rectify these imbalances?
