<br/><br/> Malaysia, home to some 20 million Muslims, is often held up as a model of a pro-Western Islamic nation. The government of Malaysia, in search of Western investment, does its best to perpetuate this view. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the growing role of Islam in the last quarter century of Malaysian politics.
