This is a 2 months long poll, which ended on Feb 25, 2009. There is only 28% of the responders feel that the Malaysia economy will back up on the 3rd Q of 2009, and 14% more feel that the economy will be back on track during 4th Q of 2009. Totally only 42% , which is also a figure lesser than half of the total responders. Another 42% feel that the Malaysia economy will remind its downward trend in the whole year of 2009.

 Overall, the result shown a very clear conclusion that all responders agreed Malaysia economy is facing a very serious hurt, which need longer time to be recovered if compare with the Asia economy crisis which was began on the middle year of 1997. Anyway, if the Malaysia economy remind its downward trend in the whole year of 2009, yet its will contribute to a record long period of downward growth trend.

Government should be more active and has faster respond within the country’s economy issue. Compare with other major countries around the world as well as neighbouring countries, our government’s moves are far left behind. Perhaps its because of the government had chosen to set the politic issue in becoming the 1st priority, but not economy issue.  L
