Fiscal Decentralisation

Project Leader: Prof Woo Wing Thye

This ongoing research project will examine the need for reforms in the allocation of state government budgets and the overall governance of state vis-a-vis the federal government. It goes into the details of economic changes necessary for growth on the state level such as GLC reform and the formation of small and medium banks. On the matter of governance, greater levels of autonomy is needed for Malaysia states to dictate the course of their own development path.
