Media Must Play Role As A Partner Of The Government - Najib

KUALA LUMPUR, May 20 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said he would like to see the media play the role of the government's partner in efforts to bring changes and greater transformation to the country.

The Prime Minister said that in this context, there were already positive signs lately including the convincing economic recovery and the significant improvement in the country's position from being number 18 to number 10 among the most competitive nations in the world according to the report "World Competitiveness Yearbook 2010".

In addition, Malaysia was able to attract foreign investment including Qatar's recent commitment to invest US5 billion, the announcement by Western Digital recently to invest US1.2 billion and the positive indication from the Gulf states to invest more in this country.

"All this is our success...that's why I invite the media to become a partner in the journey to transform the country," he said in his speech at the ground breaking ceremony for Utusan Melayu (M) Berhad's new headquarters building at Jalan Chan Sow Lin, on Thursday.
