Capital control regime and capital structure determinants: A Malaysian case (2006)
Journal Article
Dzolkarnaini, M. N. (2006). Capital control regime and capital structure determinants: A Malaysian case

In light of 1997 Asian crisis, the adoption of capital control regime by Malaysian government on 1st September 1998 is very much controversial. Despite being highly criticised, it is argued that Malaysia has recovered nicely. On 21st July 2005, the g...

The p53 tumor suppressor protein exerts most of its anti-tumorigenic activity by transcriptionally activating several pro-apoptotic genes. Accumulating evidence also suggests a transcription-independent function of p53 during apoptosis. It has recent...
