KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is poised to receive a massive boost to its economy following China's commitment to invest a record RM170bil, says an analyst.

SPI Asset Management managing director Stephen Innes said as Malaysia already has very strong trade ties with China with investment flow especially into green energy and digital economy, these new investments would push for greater job creation, namely for future graduates that are struggling to find suitable paying jobs.
