Construction a winner under 12MP

Anwar says the revised 12MP for the 2021 to 2025 period would see the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) growing between 5% and 6%, up from the original target of 4.5% to 5.5% during the five-year plan.

PETALING JAYA: The 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP) mid-term review may have set a positive tone to move the country up the value chain. However, some analysts regard the revised targets as “ambitious” and “challenging” given the prevailing uncertainties in the global economy.

As revealed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on Monday, the revised 12MP for the 2021 to 2025 period would expect the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) to grow between 5% and 6%, up from the original target of 4.5% to 5.5% during the five-year plan.
