Anwar: Political stability and clear policies are reasons Google invests RM61 billion
Published
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said political stability and clear national policies are among the main reasons Google has made an investment worth RM61 billion in Malaysia.
He said international investors need a safe and predictable environment before making long-term investment decisions. According to him, Malaysia has successfully demonstrated such stability, and the government's policies are also seen as clearer and easier for investors to understand.
An investment of this scale is expected to benefit the national economy, especially in the digital technology sector. It may also create job opportunities and help improve the skills of the local workforce in new industries.
So far, the government continues to encourage more global companies to invest in Malaysia. The government also affirms its commitment to ensuring that economic growth goes hand in hand with the interests of the people.
