Experts: On the right track to bring in high-net-worth investors


PETALING JAYA: The country’s move to roll out the Malaysia Premium Visa Programme (PVIP) is in line with other countries that are already offering “golden visas” to lure more businesses and high investments to the nation while competing globally, say experts.

Sunway University economics professor Dr Yeah Kim Leng said the programme, set to kick off on Oct 1, will attract investors to set up businesses, which will have a greater multiplier effect on income and job creation compared to the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme.
