| Summary: | This thesis is about the role of urbanisation and industrialisation on internal migration in Bayan Baru of Penang State, Malaysia. The study employs an in-depth review of literature which examines empirical and theoretical approaches to show how the three processes of
urbanisation, industrialisation and internal migration are interrelated. A survey of migratory households was conducted during which 340 respondents were selected from
the study area over the period of November 1995. A non-probability selection of the
to December sample was employed using simple random sampling. Analysis by way of
descriptive discussion of the stat · istical results and the test of hypotheses formulated confirmed the economic motive being the major reason behind in-migration to the township. |
