description | We tested the impact of foreign direct investment on inequality in Malaysia,
Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines- significant FDI recipients amongst

technique suggest that FDI improves income inequality in Malaysia and
Indonesia but worsens inequality in Thailand while it proved insignificant for the Philippines. |
