PETALING JAYA: Political stability remains a vital part of nation-building as no foreign investor will be interested to invest in Malaysia if the political situation is unstable, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Minister said the government is putting its efforts in ensuring a"vibrant and dynamic economy" but noted that this cannot be achieved if there was instability.

"It is hoped that the increased investment returns will attract more forward-looking corporations with high technology to invest in upgrading the country’s basic infrastructure and improving the business environment. As such, he said this will strengthen Malaysia’s trade channel advantage and spur the country’s economic growth to create more job opportunities for the people.

Additionally, for the maritime industry, Dr Wee said the country has several well managed and highly efficient ports as well as projects that are developing beside the ports including the Port Klang Free Zone, and the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park. With land transport, Dr Wee said the government was currently developing an extensive rail network that includes the ECRL, RTS, and MRT projects.
