Summary

This book delves into the lives of women in Malaysia, portraying their experiences as they navigate life's challenges and make sacrifices for survival. Despite their contributions being often unappreciated, the narrative highlights the substantial economic impact of these women in… the context of Malaysia's development. Focusing on the pragmatic aspects, the book explores the accomplishments and contributions of women on personal, financial, and professional fronts. It contributes to the discourse on women's empowerment and well-being from diverse perspectives within the specific context of Malaysia as a developing nation. It systematically reviews women's roles in families and society, analyzing their economic contributions, social challenges, and resilience.

It invites readers to engage with a discourse that both reflects the intricacies of women's lives and contributes substantively to gender studies and economic development.
