| BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT |
| During the year in review, the Malaysian economy was stronger and more
resilient despite challenging environment encompassing persistently high crude
oil prices, rising global interest rates and increased competition from emerging
regional economies. Pragmatic macroeconomic policies coupled with strong
fundamentals and robust domestic activity particularly in the private sector, has
continued to propel economic expansion amidst high export demand for
electronics and primary commodities. This resulted in an overall growth in real
Gross Domestic Product of 5.9%. |
