As political intrigue wipes RM43b from stock market, could an extended crisis hit the economy?

Ramon said Malaysia is in danger of going into recession unless the government comes up with satisfactory solutions to spur the economy. “Why these politicians have nothing to do?

However, political analyst Oh Ei Sun assured Malaysians that the negative impact of the political crisis will only be on a short-term basis.
