KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 5 ― The one month before the coming parliamentary sitting should be used as best as possible to reach consensus and put the country in a more stable position, says Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Economy), Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed.

He said a strong investment climate and political stability could ensure that Malaysia would continue to attract local and foreign investors, one of the prerequisites to boost economic growth.

“Investment is one of the catalysts for economic recovery that can provide job opportunities, generate income and increase exports.

“Therefore, the people, particularly political leaders should find common ground and forge togetherness under the leadership of Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
