Zeti: Ensure comparative advantage because resources are limited


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia should ask if it is venturing into an industry with comparative advantage when it considers manufacturing a third national car, says former Bank Negara governor Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz.

“We should channel resources to areas where we have the comparative advantage, where we have the leading edge and venture into the frontiers of that industry,” she said during a panel discussion on “The Economic Agenda – Mahathir-nomics 2.0” and “Vision 2020 Revisited” at the Youth Economic Forum 2018 yesterday.
