GEORGE TOWN, Aug 5 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has declared his aim of turning Malaysia into a great economy in five to six years.

The country is improving and its political stability has attracted the interest of foreign investors to invest in the country, he said, citing the willingness of Tesla Inc chief executive officer Elon Musk to hold a private meeting with him and stating his commitment to open a company headquarters in Cyberjaya this year.

Musk’s actions are a great honour to Malaysia and a vote of confidence in the country’s economic policies, including Madani Economy, put in place by the Unity Government, along with its transparent leadership.

“My dream and ambition is to make Malaysia a great economy and a great country for all Malaysians.

“I want this country to be great again, have a great economy, be a great country with a united people,” Anwar said during his speech at the Mega Madani Ceramah in Pekan Sungai Ara tonight.

The Prime Minister said the theft of national funds needed to be stopped to turn Malaysia into a good example globally.

He also reminded voters to cast their votes on polling day on August 12, and to elect a political party that represented all Malaysians.

“You want PAS, Bersatu to rule, or you want Anwar, Anthony Loke and our friends in Umno and GPS tp rule? You want a Malay multiracial government, or you want a corrupt Malay government… it is your choice, please help save Penang, save Malaysia,” Anwar said.

Voters in Selangor, Kedah, Penang, Kelantan, Terengganu and Negeri Sembilan will vote to select their new state governments on August 12, with early voting on August 8. The Kuala Terengganu parliamentary by-election will also be held on the same date.
