Although published in 1999, the facts in this book is either out of date or inaccurate. It is not worth the buy.

If only there was a choice for zero-star rating, I would have given this book what it really deserves. Bullis is so biased with his views on Malaysia's IT efforts, blinding readers with his politically-insighted views. He must have a personal vendetta against Prime Minister Mahathir's policies, and resorted to discredit him further with his biased writing. This book is total blasphemy and one-sided - so much that one might tend to believe that it was the Singapore govt engaging Bullis to discredit Malaysia. Bullis was inaccurate in his views and readers should not take them into consideration. In fact, DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK AT ALL. If you want to get a fair view on doing business in South-East Asia, go read some other book.

Although this book is published end 1998, it has many inaccuracies, especially the efforts of Malaysia's Multimedia Super Corridor. The author got many facts wrong, and he tends to be very negative of the situation. I think the contents will not give Westerners a correct view of the situation.
