MP SPEAKS | Urgent action is needed to infuse Malaysians with a new national consensus and pull ourselves up from our bootstraps if the country is not to spiral down the trajectory to a kleptocratic, kakistocratic and failed state in 2040.
In the final days of 2020, there is evidence galore that we have failed in Vision 2020 to make Malaysia a great world-class nation which is united, harmonious, democratic, just, prosperous and capable of leveraging on its unique position as a confluence of four great civilisations to be “a beacon of light in a difficult and distracted world”.

The Japan Centre for Economic Research (JCER) has predicted that Vietnam will become an upper-middle-income country in 2023, and its gross domestic product (GDP) will surpass that of China’s Taiwan in 2035.
The JCER recently released a medium-term forecast of Asian economies entitled “Asia in the coronavirus disaster: Which countries are emerging?”, which addresses the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and looks at how Asian economies are faring compared with others around the world.

HANOI (Vietnam News/ANN): The Japan Centre for Economic Research (JCER) has predicted that Vietnam will become an upper-middle-income country in 2023, and its GDP will surpass that of China’s Taiwan in 2035.
The JCER recently released a medium-term forecast of Asian economies entitled “Asia in the coronavirus disaster: Which countries are emerging?”, which addresses the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and looks at how Asian economies are faring compared with others around the world.
In the standard scenario, JCER assumes that the pandemic is a transient event that will not affect economic structures over the medium term.
