\u201cThe focus is on ensuring we can sustain FDI and we want investors to retain Malaysia as their destination for investment. It is crucial for us to restore investors\u2019 confidence,\u201d he told reporters after the launch of the World Bank\u2019s 18th edition of the Malaysia Economic Monitor.<\/p>\n

He is, however, optimistic about the government\u2019s efforts to bring in more investment, on the back of the country\u2019s robust economic growth.\u00a0His ministry is reviewing the 11MP now.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want [these investments]to move towards high-tech and capital-intensive industries, with the digital economy [at the forefront].\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIssues and development challenges will be identified, and steps to tackle them will be proposed. Progressive social economic policies will be introduced to complement institution reforms,\u201d he said. The review will also address the disparity of growth across states, the gap between income groups, the high youth unemployment rate and the rising cost of living, he said in a speech during the launch earlier.<\/p>\n

\u201cOutstanding structural challenges will also be addressed, such as raising labour productivity, ensuring quality investment and innovation, pushing industries to move up the value chain and expanding the fiscal space,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
