Sultan Nazrin: History can help M’sia overcome economic challenges


Meeting of minds: Sultan Nazrin talking to Prof Perkins during the launch of his new book, ‘Charting the Economy’, at the St Regis Hotel in Kuala Lumpur.

KUALA LUMPUR: The key to understanding a country better is through its history, so it is logical to assume the key to studying a country’s economy is through studying its econo­mic history.

This was what Perak Ruler Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah set out to achieve in Charting the Economy: Early 20th Century Malaya and Contemporary Malaysian Contrasts which was launched yesterday.
