Summary: | Malaysia expects to become a fully developed society by the year 2020. This is a challenging task, in which the Malay/Bumiputera community, mainly consisting of Muslims, has to play a key role. While some advances have been made in preparing the Malay Muslims for leadership roles, overall progress cannot be achieved without a dynamic action-oriented and highly ethical Qur’anic worldview.

A number of such hindrances are discussed along with their symptoms and some possible causes. |
