| Summary: | The main objective of this paper is to study on the demand of entrepreneurs and their satisfaction towards Penang State Government. In terms of framework, the research uses Richard Lehne's work on Business and State Relationship. In this notion, Lehne asserted that there are three roles for the government to enhance business growth. The roles are promotional, regulatory and social service thus these roles become the framework of this study. Then, the study examined policies and programs that have been implemented since 2008 till 2015. A questionnaire was distributed among 300 respondents in Penang and analyzed by using SPSS. Then, the paper used factor analysis and multiple regressions to construct new factors and identify significant factors that entrepreneurs endeavor. Factor Analysis then identified three new factors on the demand of entrepreneur. The first factor is on Indirect Entrepreneurship Development Policy, second Is Management Skills and Productivity Enhancement and the third is on demand on Good Governance. Then, in chapter five, Factor Analysis identified three new type of satisfaction which are Satisfaction on State Government Good Governance, Satisfaction on Management and Capability and Satisfaction on Rules and Regulation. Then, satisfaction on State Government Good Governance was chosen as a factor to be analyzed in Multiple Regression because of the high number of loadings. This illustrates that State Government Good Governance is the most significant factor in measuring satisfaction level among micro-entrepreneurs in Penang. |
