Before determining why Malaysia was
needed to implement the new economic model, it should be understanding what the
new economic model is actually, what is the purpose to do so. The new economic
model is a plan that reveals by prime minister Najib Tun Razak which is with
the purpose of multiplying the per capita income of Malaysia in the year 2020.
According to the data, we know that there are RM23,100 in the year 2010. The New
economic model is aimed to multiply the RM23,100 about $7000 to become
$15,000. However, it was not that easy,
the key to making this aim become true is the high income, sustainability, and
also inclusiveness. Although, why it was important to implement the new
economic model in just 10 years.
There are actually many reasons to
implement a new economic model but most of it can be defined as stimulating the
economy to reach sustainable high income and benefit everyone. In more detail,
a new economic model could decrease the control of the government’s presence in
some of the areas and give back those power and space to the private sector to
encourage the competing of commercial activities between the private sector.
This shall be able to stimulate the business to grow and offer more career
opportunities to the people.
If there was the business of the
private sector can grow successfully, it was very good for other fields too. A
great number of career opportunities could decrease the unemployment rate,
while also improve the quality of life of Malaysians. Other than that, the
growth of the private sector could attract foreign investment too. This is
because there was enough freedom to give to the private sector and this was
what foreign enterprises like to have. If there was more investment come into
Malaysia, it shall be able to stimulate the import and export value and also
the primary sector of Malaysia.
Besides that, if the foreign
company invests in Malaysia, open up their subsidiary in Malaysia. It would
also bring their technology and technique to Malaysia, it can improve Malaysia
technology, while also provide the chance to train and learn for the employee.
As result, Malaysian people will have higher skills, higher income, a better
quality of life, and new talent knowledge so on
In conclusion, the new
economic system will bring a lot of chain reactions to the Malaysian economy. It
was also trying to take care of all the fields of the economy as much as they
can, benefit all parties, even train the people to have the own capital to raise
themselves, and not less rely on the support of the government. The new
economic model is already a good economic plan that able to accomplish the high
income, inclusiveness, and sustainability even it, not enough perfect yet.
