Kuala Lumpur Roundtable

'Kuala Lumpur Roundtable offers key policy suggestions to achieve Shared Prosperity 2030' Some really good suggestions put forth by the members of the KLR in their paper, hopefully they get pushed through to our policymakers. There was some mention about SMEs and promoting SME contributions to the economy as a market solution to lift the B40 and M40, however, personally I feel that there should be more emphasis given to SMEs and entrepreneurship, as arguably entrepreneurs are the 'spark plugs' that we desperately need to jump start our struggling economy. We need to learn from our past and not repeat the same mistakes, we've already wasted too much time. - GLC Reforms - APs, licensing and all forms of interventionist policies must be removed - Monopolies and Oligopolies must not be given any form of protectionism through regulations etc. How serious are our policymakers?
