| Summary: | This study looks at the role of location in influencing the religious and cultural ideologies and sex-role
preferences, and the pattern of division of labour of the Sikh community in Malaysia. The respondents were selected from metropolitan, urban and rural areas in Perak, Malaysia. The diverse locations are vital in understanding the possible effects of these different environments on the religious and cultural ideologies, sex-role preferences and division of labour of the

Thus this study takes into account development through its proxy location, in its examination of the above aspects of the Sikh community. |
