The research also considers how and why Chinese-Bumiputera partnerships in the construction sector have succeeded.

(2) What is the nature of this mutual nurturing process? (3) To what extent does this process help them to advance in their business development? (4) To what extent does this process help to bridge the divide between these two ethnic groups? (5) To what extent is this type of partnership sustainable, especially in the era of the New Economic Model that emphasises equitable access and inclusiveness?
