Malaysia: Turning
away foreign direct investment (FDI) from China, as suggested by the
opposition, makes no economic sense to the country.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said such a near-sighted
approach to the country's economy would only put Malaysia in a bind.
"China is the world's second-largest economy and a trading
nation that is looking increasingly outwards.
"So it makes no economic sense for Malaysia to turn away
Chinese FDl, as some politicians are suggesting," he said before launching
the National Chamber of Commerce of Industry of Malaysia Economic Forum 2017.
He added that such a myopic and narrow-minded view betrays a
fundamental misunderstanding of economics, which would only spell doom for
Malaysia.
Najib backed his argument with a report from the Statistics
Department for the first quarter of 2017, which shows that investment from
China represents merely 2 per cent of total FDI stock In Malaysia.
"Let me also make it clear that the government will not
compromise the country's sovereignty one inch.
"They are scaremongering and spreading lies for their own
selfish political reasons. They do not have the good of Malaysia and its people
at heart."
China is Malaysia's largest trading partner, while Malaysia is
China's eighth-largest trading partner, and the second-largest in Asean.
