competition 1 legislation in the post-WTO era in the light of its existing laws. 2 The
process of globalization and the influence of international bodies. such as. the United
Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCT AD). the Asia-Pacific Economic
Cooperation (APEC), and the advancement of information technology, have rendered
competition law necessary for Malaysia. This study argues for the need of introducing a
clear competition policy and comprehensive single competition legislation for Malaysia.
The categories of anti-competitive practices will be identified and discussed in this
dissertation. This dissertation will also propose a competition structure that is viable for
Malaysia by considering relevant governmental policies and relevant existing laws.3 This
study will evaluate the role played by the existing laws in dealing with the competition
issues. Reference will be made to the competition law in the United Kingdom (UK), the
European Union (EU), and other relevant competition regimes. This study is divided into
three parts consisting of nine chapters. Chapter I provides the introduction of this study.
Chapter 2 lays down the history and development of competition law in the UK and
international bodies. Chapter 3 discusses the theory and objectives of competition law,
and followed by chapter 4 which deals with the proposed structure of competition policy
of Malaysia. As for chapter 5. it discusses the existing competition related laws in
Malaysia. Chapter 6. 7 and 8 discuss the anti-competitive practices which consisting of
horizontal restraints, vertical restraints, and mergers. This is fol lowed by Chapter 9
