Book Description
Book One of Caitlyns Dragon, Tankoon, finds the land in trouble. All of the stories are mixed up. Trees grow apples on one side and bananas on the other. Rain falls in cubes instead of drops. The atmospheric continuum, which controls the weather, and the optimal controller, which controls all the stories in Tankoon, are becoming unstable. The Fernal Equalizer is splitting. If it continues to split, Tankoon and possibly our land will cease to exist. The only thing that can fix these controlling devices is a key that will fit into the Fernal Equalizer and bring everything back to normal. This key is held by a dragon. Only a really real princess can control the dragon to obtain the key. However, he will only give up the key if he wants to. If he doesn't, he will destroy whoever tries to obtain it. Caitlyn is a really real princess, but does she have what it takes to overcome all of the dangers to reach the mountains of Astra Arum, triumph over those trying to keep her from the dragon, and face the dragon to obtain the key? Follow Caitlyn and her friends in Book One of Caitlyns Dragon.

The Riddle of Malaysian Capitalism
Author: Peter Searle
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 9780824820534
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Is capitalism in Southeast Asia 'real' or a 'chimera', that is, some Southeast Asian derivative of capitalism that ultimately will not be sustainable? Malaysia, where an intimate relationship has been forged between the state and business in an effort to create Malay capitalists, presents an interesting and illuminating case in the debate. In this work Peter Searle identifies the complex interaction between the state, the dominant political party (UMNO) and business as the source of dynamism or defeat in the development of Malay capitalists. He also challenges a common view that Chinese business groups are completely different from Malay business groups. Overall this study argues against drawing sharp contrasts between dependency and self-reliance, between state and capital, and between rent-seekers and true 'productive' capitalists. For it is from that amalgam of categories and groups the study concludes that a form of capitalism is emerging in Malaysia which is nonetheless remarkably dynamic and resilient, despite its unorthodox origins.
