“…Moreover, the resource-based view of the firm implies that it is the resources and capabilities within the firm that are a source of competitive advantage. The theory assumes that resources are diverse across firms and are imperfectly portable (Barney, 2001). The resource-based view demonstrates that a firm can obtain it's competitive benefit only if it gets access to some specific value resources not effortlessly imitated by any competitors.…”

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) make remarkable contributions to the economic growth of developing countries. As a newly industrialized country, the Malaysian economy predominantly depends on the SME sector. However, this study seeks to redress this by reporting the key drivers influencing the internationalization process of SMEs such as market orientation, government regulation and competitive advantage on internationalization of manufacturing SMEs in Malaysia. To empirically test those factors, primary data was gathered using the survey questionnaire method. The survey instrument was distributed to all manufacturing SMEs involved in exporting which are located in the Klang Valley of Malaysia and total 257 questionnaires were received (FMM, 2012). The findings indicate the significant role of market orientation, government regulation and competitive advantage in their process of internationalization. Furthermore, the study has added to the body of knowledge by introducing competitive advantage as a mediating variable between market orientation and government regulation with internationalization of manufacturing SMEs in Malaysia. The results of this research could help practitioners and managers of SMEs in the manufacturing sector to be in a better position to improve their internationalization efforts.

“…The RBT could provide the answer for this question as indicated by previous literatures, "varying performance between firms is a result of heterogeneity of assets and RBV is focused on the factors that cause these differences to prevail" (Amit and Schoemaker, 1993), "firms differ from each other since each has its own bundle of resources and capabilities" (O'Regan and Ghobadian, 2004a). Therefore, the application of resource-based theory could help in explaining why some firms consistently outperform other firms (Barney, Wright, & Ketchen, 2001). Many studies of firms' performance used RBV as a ground theory (e.g Mooreman and Slotegraaf, 1999;De Carolis, 2003;O'Regan and Ghobadian, 2004a).…”

The high and low performance batik SMEs were categorized based on their annual sales and profits for three consecutive years. For this purposes, the questionnaires were distributed among 186 batik business owners in Malaysia. The data collected were then analyzed using Mann-Whitney U Test and Chi-Square Test.

“…Newbert (2007) suggests that such resources are related with the development of sustainable competitive advantages and that such advantages are related with corporate performance. Additionally, within the frame of the theory, a capability is understood as the way a firm deploys and reconfigures its resources (Barney, Ketchen, & Wright, 2011;Barney, Wright, & Ketchen, 2001). Some authors have subsequently built the concept of dynamic capability from the concepts of resources and capabilities.…”
