And its message: New China is standing tall as a leading global innovator. This timely publication completes the New China development Quartet on the country’s envisioned and planned/scripted 100-year-long (1949-2049) struggles to comprehensively and fully develop, modernize, and rejuvenate/renew itself, and to build up a world-class military with distinctive Chinese characteristics. The contemporary Chinese Dream is China’s Vision 2050: of a boldly-reinvented, fully-restored and gloriously-transformed nationhood by 2050. According to its manifest destiny, New China will regain its historical foremost status among the world’s nations, by the highly auspicious time of the People’s Republic of China (PRC)’s centenary on 1 October 2049. As they say, history will repeat itself. And, it will do so, magnificently, in New China’s restoration to geopolitical preeminence.

The spoken languages obviously vary at home, although Bahasa Malaysia is the official language and nearly everyone speaks English. There is also a mixture of religions, with Islam predominating among the Malays and others, Hinduism and Sikhism among the Indians, mainly Daoism and Confucianism among the Chinese, but also some Christians as well as older indigenous beliefs in certain places. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Malaysia contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Malaysia.
