Malaysia can manage inflation, says Zeti

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's inflation will be affected if the country has high commodity prices that would translate into high food prices, said Bank Negara Malaysia Governor Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz.

"It's something that we can manage," she said on the sidelines of the Kijang Emas Scholarship Award 2011 here today, when asked whether Malaysia's inflation would be similar to that of Singapore.
