Malaysia Able To Face Deep Crisis
Malaysia has the capacity to undertake more measures to promote economic growth should global conditions deteriorate further this year, according to BNM. BNM governor Tan Sri Dr. Zeti Akhtar Aziz said recovery of the local economy is expected to occur in the second half of 2009, based on the assumption that global economic condition would stabilize in the second half after the successful implementation of various fiscal and monetary policies.

The real GDP performance is projected to be in between -1% and 1% for 2009 after taking into account the prospects for a deepening global downturn and support to the economy provided by the policy measures.

What do you do during the economic crisis? Do you know that we're having economic crisis right now? Maybe some of you didn't even notice coz it's very different from the crisis in 1997/98. That time was more on currency crisis. And you maybe notice what happen in US right now does impact the Malaysia's economy. So, my question again, what do you do during the current economic crisis?

Me: Nothing, betsuni, natha---> senang cerita, tak buat apa2 pun. Tak tahu pun ada krisis ekonomi skarang ni until I read the newspapers.
