Abstract: Price disparity between Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah has been a long debated issue. Over the years, industry players, political parties, and non-governmental organisations have argued on the main reasons for price differences for Sabah's manufacturing and export industry's stunted growth. This paper intends to study the case of market integration and shipping industry by taking the case between Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah; conducted by qualitative measures. Based on the issue arises, a conceptual model is developed which can be a basis for further studies of logistics industry in Malaysia. There is a need for further research on this topic, especially the role of government-market player context as well as from supply chain perspectives.
