Abstract

This study aims to determine the distribution of entrepreneurial traits across districts, gender, education, occupations, and experience levels in Kelantan, Malaysia. This study employed a cross-sectional approach, by which quantitative data were collected from 800 low-income household heads in Kelantan, Malaysia. It was found that the distribution of entrepreneurial traits was the same across genders. However, the findings reported a significant difference in the distribution of entrepreneurial traits across districts, education levels, occupations, and experience levels. Policymakers should,, therefore,, focus on ways to cultivate and increase the level of entrepreneurial traits among the low-income household heads, especially in the district of Jeli and those who have never attended school, fishermen, and those who reported having no experience, since these groups scored the lowest indicating a lack of entrepreneurial traits.
