Malaysia's economic growth seen to remain robust


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s economic growth prospects will remain robust this year, supported by improvements in exports amid the potential impact from fiscal consolidations, said an economist.

World Bank senior country economist for Malaysia, Dr Frederico Gil Sander, said the country could rely on the export and domestic sectors when needed.       “Malaysia is a stable country in term of growth rate. I think it is not going to be different from what we have before,” he said on the sidelines of the Global Malaysia Series talk here yesterday.
