Zusammenfassung:Investigation of the correlation between technological heterogeneity, scale efficiency and establishment size, based on data for the West Malaysian manufacturing industry in 1973.

Very small-scale establishments are scale-efficient only to a very limited extent. (Economische Voorlichtingsdienst)
