Against this backdrop, global capital is actively scouting for a safe haven with lucrative returns, which bodes well for the Malaysian equity market and its regional peers, said Manpreet at Standard Chartered’s virtual press conference on the global market outlook for the second half of 2020. “Low bond yields is one driver of that because you’d expect to see global capital start to look around the world for where the returns may be highest,” he noted. “The dollar weakening, or at least [it’s] not getting stronger, tends to induce an environment where you see foreign investment inflows in emerging markets or more broadly, the Asian equity markets. [This, coupled with] low bond yields, does offer some value in equity markets in general,” he added.

    'Jaga hati Melayu, tamatkan perang psikologi' Malaysiakini.com October 22, 2010 Seorang perwakilan dalam perhimpunan agung Umno hari ini memberikan mesej dan amaran kepada kepada parti komponen BN yang lain, terutamanya MCA bagi menamatkan perang psikologi antara mereka. Menyentuh kenyataan Presiden MCA Datuk Seri Chua Soi Lek tentang kontrak sosial yang boleh dibincangkan secara tertutup, wakil Negeri Sembilan Jalaluddin Alias dengan nada keras mendesak pemimpin Cina itu supaya menjaga hati orang Melayu. "Ini perjuangan Melayu yang pertahankan hak Melayu? Takkan di rumah saya sendiri, saya tak boleh cakap dengan isteri? "Saya cakap atas dasar perpaduan yang diminta oleh presiden supaya kita jaga semua kaum untuk bangsa dan negara," kata Jalaluddin. "Kita minta MCA pun juga pun hati orang Melayu. Betul kalau MCA, MIC tak sokong kita (dalam pilihan raya) kita tak boleh menang. Tetapi kalau Umno tak sokong, lagi MCA dan MIC tak boleh menang," tambahnya. Semalam, Chua dilaporkan berkata jika kontrak sosial tidak seharusnya dibincangkan kerana soal itu mungkin menimbulkan sedikit kontroversi kerana generasi muda berpendapat, sebagai rakyat Malaysia mereka seharusnya diberi ruang. katanya. Dalam ucapannya sebelum itu, Datuk Seri Najib Razak antara lain berkata kedudukan dan hak-hak Melayu dilindungi sepenuhnya serta "terkunci kemas" dalam perlembagaan tanpa dapat digugat lagi dan kenyataan ini wajar diterima oleh semua kaum negara ini. Jalaluddin yang juga pemimpin Umno Jelebu menegur perhimpunan NGO dan parti bukan Melayu yang didakwanya dalam pelbagai medan menghentam orang Melayu. "Jangan sebut lagi, jangan sentuh lagi hak Melayu. Kita tak pernah tanya apa Cina dapat. Mreka lebih senang daripada kita. Kalau kita cabut semua bangun di Kuala Lumpur, yang tinggal hanya warung-warung tua peninggalan Melayu," katanya disambut sorakan dan tepukan para perwakilan.

    Artikel Berita Mengenai Industri Pembangunan di Malaysia Innovacia Sdn Bhd Perumahan – Part 2 (2015): Berita Harian (cont.): PR1MA sasar 250,000 rumah diluluskan menjelang akhir tahun SABTU, 11 JULAI 2015 @ 4:24 PM KUALA LUMPUR: Perbadanan PR1MA Malaysia (PR1MA) menyasar 250,000 unit rumah mampu milik diluluskan oleh lembaga pengarahnya menjelang akhir tahun ini. Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif, Datuk Abdul Mutalib Alias, berkata lembaga pengarah sudah meluluskan 153,000 unit di 10 lokasi di seluruh negara, kecuali Labuan. "Kami sudah pun menerima 1,016,000 permohonan untuk rumah PR1MA setakat ini, dan permintaan sangat menggalakkan," katanya pada sesi pengundian bagi projek PR1MA@Cyberjaya 1 di sini, hari ini. Sesi pengundian itu dirasmikan oleh Ketua Setiausaha Kementerian Kewangan Tan Sri Dr Mohd Irwan Serigar Abdullah yang juga anggota lembaga pengarah PR1MA. Perumahan PR1MA disasarkan untuk rakyat Malaysia berpendapatan sederhana dengan purata pendapatan isi rumah antara RM2,500 dan RM10,000, berusia lebih 21 tahun dan belum memiliki lebih daripada satu hartanah individu atau keluarga. Unit terbabit dijual antara RM100,000 dan RM400,000. Mengulas dakwaan bahawa perumahan PR1MA semakin mahal hingga RM400,000, yang tidak mampu dibeli, Abdul Mutalib berkata dakwaan itu tidak benar. "Setakat ini perumahan kami tidak melebihi RM400,000, dan kebanyakan projek menawarkan harga antara RM250,000 dan RM300,000 seunit dan hanya ada beberapa unit berharga lebih RM350,000," katanya. Beliau berkata dasar membenarkan pembeli kali kedua membeli kediaman PR1MA bersama pembeli kali pertama, namun kelebihan diberikan kepada pembeli kali pertama. Ini bertujuan memberi peluang kepada mereka yang sudah memiliki rumah sebelum PR1MA ditubuhkan, yang jauh dari tempat kerja, untuk memiliki kediaman di lokasi yang ideal, katanya.

    Opposition targeting Johor in GE14, says Zahid Free Malaysia Today July 9, 2017 The home minister says there are attempts to shift voters from elsewhere to Johor to win certain seats. JELEBU: Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today disclosed efforts by the opposition to move some voters to Johor in order to capture the state in the coming 14th general election (GE14). As home minister overseeing the National Registration Department, he said he had detected the move being made by the opposition. “They (opposition) are focusing on Johor as they want to capture Johor. “In GE13, they were targeting Negeri Sembilan. Clearly, Negeri Sembilan (ruling coalition) not only managed to retain its existing seats then but also increased the number of seats won. “So, I am confident that although the opposition has identified several parliamentary and state seats (to be contested and wrested) in the state, Johor will remain a fixed deposit for Umno and BN.” Zahid, who is also Umno vice-president and carrying out the duties of party deputy president, said this when opening the Jelebu Umno division delegates conference in Kuala Klawang today. Present were Jelebu Umno division chief Jalaluddin Alias, socio-cultural affairs adviser to the government Rais Yatim and Umno supreme council member Jamil Khir Baharom, who is also minister in the Prime Minister’s Department. Zahid said he, however, believed that in the coming GE14, all the Umno leaders and members in Johor would continue defending the state where the party was born 71 years ago. He called on all Umno and BN members in Negeri Sembilan to double their efforts to ensure that more parliamentary and state seats could be won and the majority votes increased to ensure two-thirds majority in GE14.
