The Johor–Singapore Causeway
The Johor–Singapore Causeway was inaugurated on 28 June 1924. With this, Singapore became physically connected to the Malay Peninsula via a 1,056-metre-long raised track across the Johor Strait. Since then, this understated piece of infrastructure has come to underpin many aspects of life in Singapore and Malaysia. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, an estimated 300,000 people crossed between Malaysia and Singapore via the Causeway every day, making i…

The Bri in Malaysia's Port Sector
The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been characterised as a large-scale initiative to boost the movement of goods and services, capital, and people from China to Southeast Asia and beyond. Transport and logistics are a key aspect of this enterprise, with many projects focussing on railways, road networks, and ports receiving priority attention. However, BRI-related initiatives are often cast in unitary terms, with agency and autonomy almost un…
Batam
Once an island of high-tech production and turbocharged growth, Batam has seen its economic fortunes decline of late. Traditional pillars of the manufacturing sector such as electrical goods, electronics and shipbuilding have contracted. Investment levels have fallen, the island’s growth rate is below the national average and unemployment has increased sharply. In response, policymakers are promoting the development of new sectors in order to div…
Indonesia's 2019 Elections
In April 2019, Indonesia carried out simultaneous presidential and legislative elections. With an estimated 192 million voters acceding to 800,000 polling stations, this was the world's largest direct presidential election. Barring some dispersed claims of irregularities, the mammoth task of electing public representatives at the national as well as provincial and local levels was successfully carried out. Indonesia's voters had to decide on the …
Malaysia's 14th General Elections
The results of Malaysia's 14th General Elections held in May this year were unexpected and transformative. Against conventional wisdom, the newly-reconfigured opposition grouping Pakatan Harapan decisively defeated the incumbent Barisan Nasional. Despite a long-running financial scandal dogging the incumbents, an opposition victory had been all but discarded due to the advantages of incumbency, a deep fissure amongst opposition ranks, and a favou…
Rowing Against the Tide
Despite its good infrastructure and proximity to Singapore, Batam's economic performance has taken a turn for the worse, with declining levels of foreign direct investment (FDI) and exports. Well-known firms in the electronics sector have closed shop, the shipping industry is in the doldrums, and unemployment rates have begun to climb. The environment for business is not as conducive as it used to be, with bureaucratic overlaps, persistent red ta…
Educating for hope in troubled times
This is a timely work. It has much of interest for both environmental educators and peace educators. The work is divided into four main parts: ‘Troubled times’, ‘Facing the challenge’, ‘Sources of
(De)centralization and the Missing Middle in Indonesia and Malaysia
Indonesia and Malaysia have been characterized by powerful, centralized state apparatuses and soft authoritarianism. However, over the last two decades, Indonesia has implemented far-reaching political reforms and embarked on a process of decentralization, whereas Malaysia's political context has remained static, and it has in fact deepened processes of centralization. Notwithstanding this difference, in both cases, the rescaling of state power h…

The evolution of the electronics industry on Batam Island (Riau Islands Province, Indonesia)
While extensively studied in the 1990s, research on the electrical and electronics (E&E) industry in Singapore and the proximate areas of Indonesia has dwindled. Focusing on the E&E sector in the island of Batam (Riau Islands Province, Indonesia), we examine the industry’s recent evolution, in particular its ‘robustness’—its durability and capacity to adapt to adverse events. As to the explanatory factors accounting for its robustness, we evaluat…
Malaysia's Independence Leaders and the Legacies of State Formation under British Rule
Albeit with some deterioration in recent years, Malaysia has a state with high levels of capacity that has achieved sustained economic growth through a commitment to macroeconomic stability and other pro-business measures. Recent comparative historical work argues that this state capacity is an institutional legacy of a specific model of British colonisation. While Malaysia is an amalgam of areas formerly under direct and indirect rule; the forme…
Centre–State Relations and Intra-Party Dynamics in Malaysia
As multi-level governance structures led by multiple political parties, democratic federal systems can experience two types of tensions—those between central and state governments, and those between parties in power at those different levels. This has made the study of centre–state relations in Malaysia challenging, as one coalition has been in power at the federal level since independence. Most visible centre–state conflicts have occurred in sta…
Malaysia’s Federal System
In recent decades, many countries have implemented decentralisation drives to increase efficiency and responsiveness. However, Malaysia is an exception. Its federal system is more than 50 years old and, rather than decentralising, the country has pursued a sustained centralisation drive. The cause dates back to the pre-independence period, when the nationalist elite, the British and the traditional rulers negotiated the structure of the future go…

Developmental” States and Economic Growth at the Sub-National Level
When electronics manufacturers go to Malaysia, they do not stop in the national capital, Kuala Lumpur, but fly directly to production sites in a distant province, Penang. This small state, near Thailand, with a population of some 1.5 million, has established a reputation as a dynamic hub for technology-intensive goods such as semiconductors and hard disk drives. Penang has created an environment that seems different ? and slightly separate ? from…
