The Highspeed Geography of Malaysia's Upcoming General Election

Geo-economics by #KhorReports. Malaysia's 14th General Election (#GE14 #PRU14): The first major mobile #SocialMedia influenced election?

Mobile broadband connections was accessed by 14% of the population in 2013 (13th General Election/ #GE13 #PRU13) and now that has risen to about 54% (based on reports released Jan 2014 and Jan 2018 by WAS).

While mobile social use was already at 44% in 2013, the geography and speed of connection was a limiting factor on messaging possibilities and reach versus traditional media.

Our diagram below shows the high speed geography for GE13 (pink-red) versus GE14 (light green). #Malaysia #GeneralElection #PoliticalEconomy #Politics

Sneak Peak: Indonesia's Internal Migrants by Khor Reports

We have also been working on Indonesia migrant workers data, looking at the internal movement of people. Indonesia has a long history of movement out of Java from the Dutch Colonial days. Post independence, there has also been large-scale migration via Transmigrasi programmes.

Khor Reports is also working on sub-province socio-economic data indicators for Indonesia, in addition to sub-state indicators for Malaysia. Please contact us for data overlays of oil palm vs non-oil palm and other commodity or business landscapes. Data covers major SDG indicators.

We analysed some interesting data on foreign labour in each Malaysian state and district from the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) - using data on citizen and non-citizens - and found some surprising results. Sabah's share of foreign labour was the highest in the country, at approximately 37%, followed by Selangor at 11%.
