Ketidakseimbangan pembangunan wilayah dalam proses transformasi ekonomi ini berlaku kerana pertama; faktor-faktor sumber asli yang tidak mobile (imperfect factor mobility), kedua kerana penumpuan aktiviti ekonomi di suatu kawasan terpilih (imperfect divisibility), dan ketiga kerana faktor pengangukutan dan komunikasi (imperfect mobility of goods and services) yang juga terpilih di sesuatu kawasan yang mempunyai faedah berbanding (comparative advantages) yang tinggi secara relatifnya Low annual income Low wage and capital Lack of industrial activities Dependency on foreign labors Lower growth for industrial output (instability of market price) Low level of productivity Low level of value added Asan Ali Golam Hassan & Muszafarshah Mohd Mustafa Income Distribution to Regional Disparities: a Cumulative Causation from Malaysia s Experience.
