During which when Malaysia image is said to be severely tainted with
1MDB issues coupled with accusations from the oppositions that the
banks’ positions are inconstant, the EPF financial is increasingly shaky
and Tabung Haji is almost penniless, hence Dr Mahathir and his
opposition allies called Malaysia is at length a failed state. All
accusations by Dr Mahathir and his opposition allies are now kaput and
wiped out when Malaysia is singled out as the best destination in the
world to invest. We are even more gratified when Malaysia managed to be
better than Singapore.
A recent report from a global brand strategy firm, BAV Consulting and
Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania mentioned that
Malaysia as the best nominee for their 2017 foreign direct investment
(FDI) after achieving at least 30 points compared to other countries in
the scale of 100 points.
The ranking is based on a score from policy-makers from more than
6,000 businesses involving eight important characteristics of combating
corruption, dynamism, economic stability, entrepreneurship, friendly tax
environment, innovation, skilled workers and technology experts.
A total of 21,000 survey participants from 80 countries worldwide
participated in the survey which saw Southeast Asia dominated the
ranking when the three other countries, namely Singapore, Thailand and
Indonesia are also at the top of the list from 10 best countries for
investment this year.
Other than that, the report disclosed that; “Malaysia is the clear
front-runner in this ranking, scoring at least 30 points more than any
other country on a 100-point scale. The country is one of the top
recipients of foreign direct investment, and its pro-business government
offers a wide range of incentives to investors.”
Apart from Y&R’s BAV and Wharton recognition for Malaysia, along
came another international report from CLSA‘s highly regarded equity
strategist Christopher Wood believes that PM Najib Razak is now in the
best position to win the general election as Malaysia economy is moving
fast forward.
The report issued by the BAV Consulting and viewpoints from CLSA’s
Christopher Wood has very strong basis when PM Najib has managed to
bring in investments of hundreds of billion from his visits to the
Republic of China plus the recent visit of HRH King Salman of Saudi
Arabia, which has inked the investment agreement worth USD 7 billion for
the refinery and petrochemical integrated development project (RAPID)
in Pengerang, Johor.
Well done and thank you PM Najib and his ministers who have
relentlessly toiled to gain the confidence of international investors.
To Dr Mahathir and his opposition allies, please learn to accept the
reality that all your accusations and incitements have crumbled that you
should be ashamed to the rakyat for deceiving them. Obviously, all your
ill-intended plots to sabotage the country’s economy has failed.
