He said that these investments involved nearly 3,000 new projects that will create over 79,000 job opportunities for Malaysians.
"This level of investment has been achieved with the cooperation of all agencies and ministries, such as the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) and the Ministry of Finance, as well as departments abroad like the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA)," he said in his speech at the 30th anniversary celebration of Khazanah Nasional Bhd here, today.
Meanwhile, Anwar also criticised previous political decisions that lacked transparency, which gave opportunities for several cronies to destroy a company, particularly companies that are symbols and pride of the nation, such as Malaysia Airlines.
"Due to these mistakes, the company remains a burden to us until day. Do not erase that historical fact. The decisions were made with the intention of protecting the interests of a few cronies and sidelining the interests of the nation and the people," he said.
