SEOUL (Bernama): Malaysia should emulate South Korea in applying global thinking to further develop the export industry, and not merely depend on the domestic market, says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The Prime Minister also urged local market players to give attention to the manufacturing of goods that had high export value, thus yielding high returns, and that local companies would no longer depend on the support from the government like before.

Dr Mahathir cited how the South Korean vehicle export industry started with only one brand, Hyundai, and expressed confidence that Proton too could achieve similar success. "They were daring. Although they were previously known as the hermit kingdom, now they could do whatever the west could," he said.
