Malaysia benefits by investing in women


MALAYSIA's female labour force participation stands at only 55.2% – a long way from the male participation rate of 80.4%.

This means that women represent a large untapped resource for Malaysia, and if all economic barriers are removed for women, the World Bank predicts that Malaysia’s income per capita could grow by 26.2%.
