The meeting served as a forum for the federal government to collaborate with state governments on urban and rural planning matters and the nation’s physical development, in accordance with the Federal Constitution. The Malaysian government’s commitment to improving the ease of doing business and fostering a conducive environment for investment reflects its dedication to attracting domestic and foreign investors to fuel economic growth.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s call for a creative and investor-friendly investment landscape underscores Malaysia’s commitment to fostering innovation and facilitating business growth, ultimately contributing to the nation’s economic development and global competitiveness.
