The book discusses the nature and development of the movements, and shows that those movements concerned with human rights and women's issues have made significant contributions to the reform movement and been irrevocably changed by their involvement in it.Social movementsMalaysiaNon-governmental organizationsMalaysiaSocial movementsNon-governmental organizations303.48/4/09595Weiss Meredith L(Meredith Leigh),1972-867427Hassan Saliha1949-867428MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910208851103321Social movements in Malaysia1936142UNINA
