This paper presents the preliminary observations of an ongoing study that is looking into organisational changes that are externally imposed using the institutional theory. The study population are the government-linked companies involved in housing development (GLCHD) in Malaysia. For the purpose of this paper, only two are highlighted. From secondary sources, elements of changes that have exerted on these two GLCHD over the last six years and the internal changes that have taken place during the same time period were identified. The tentative conclusion is that external environment contributed to organisational change in the two GLCHD.
