Kesenjangan pendapatan di Malaysia

Menurut Laporan Pembangunan Manusia UNDP tahun,^[1] dan laporan Pembangunan Manusia (UNHDP) Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa tahun 2004,^[2] Malaysia memiliki kesenjangan pendapatan tertinggi antara kaya dan miskin di Asia Tenggara, lebih besar daripada hal tersebut di Filipina, Thailand, Singapura, Vietnam, dan Indonesia.

Laporan UNHDP menunjukkan bahwa 10% golongan terkaya di Malaysia menguasai 38,4% pendapatan ekonomi dibandingkan 10% golongan termiskin yang hanya menguasai 1,7%. Namun, menurut statistik resmi dari Departemen Perdana Menteri, ketimpangan telah menurun terus-menerus sejak tahun 1970, dengan koefisien Gini anjlok ke tingkat terendah sepanjang waktu di 0,40 pada tahun 2014.^[3]
