MALAYSIAN ECONOMY OUTLOOK

OPINIONS

Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah

In December 2009, Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri

Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah acknowledged Malaysias loss of

competitiveness and decade-long economic stagnation.

Unlike former compatriots South Korea, Singapore and

Hong Kong which have all progressed, Malaysia is still

elusively seeking to escape the middle-income trap.

OPINIONS

Professor Dr Terence Gomez

The NEM made clear that Vision 2020 is not possible without

economic, social and government transformation which was

urgent and radical. It proposed market-friendly affirmative

action measures, focusing on the bottom 40% of low-income

households. This prompted speculation, and perhaps hope, in some

quarters that the government would move away from distortionary,

race-based affirmative action policies.

OPINIONS

Danny Quah

Quah says 40% of government spending is currently paid

for by petroleum revenues, which would dry up by 2014.

And 20% of government spending goes towards subsidies

alone. In response to a reference to the recent Are we

going bankrupt? controversy, Quah says, Controversy?

Hardly a controversy, its just arithmetic.

CONCLUSION

Knowledge based economy is focused on the

production and management of knowledge in the frame

of economy constraints. In other words it refers to the

knowledge and technologies to produce economic

benefits and as well as job creation which they already

did and it leads us to the construction of High tech city

near Kuala Lumpur called Cyberjaya which is good

news.

RECOMMENDATONS

Malaysia needs to maintain its edge over it competitors

since there growing competition from other emerging

market. It will be very hard and challenging for

Malaysia since there are new technologies are on their

way. We have to realize what we need and why we

need. We have to do investment on our IT departments

so they can introduce to us new and modern

technologies.
