KUALA LUMPUR: The government will continue to intensify efforts to ensure a stable country with a conducive and business-friendly ecosystem, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said the government's continuous measures to improve governance, fight corruption and focus on high-value investments, are increasingly successful in creating high-income jobs for more people.

"Thank God, the country continues to be in a better position. The country's economy has shown strong growth with a rate of 5.9 per cent in the second quarter of 2024.

"Apart from that, the recent recovery of the Ringgit against the US dollar and other major currencies, together with the rapid rise of the FBM KLCI this year, also shows investor confidence.

"This is clear evidence that the policies implemented by the Madani Government have yielded positive results, Alhamdulillah, " he said, adding that the country is now one of the preferred destinations for global investment.

He said this while speaking at the Investiture Ceremony in conjunction with the official birthday celebration of the King of Malaysia, Sultan Ibrahim today (Sept 7).
