Mr Schellekens said in his World Bank blog that competition for export markets and FDI was likely to

increase as the global economy recovered, making it all the more necessary for Malaysia to revitalise its

economy.

Revitalising the dynamism of the economy boils down to, among other things, energising the role of

the private sector, building an internally competitive economy (which is different from ensuring external

competitiveness), and making sure that along the way no one is left behind, he said.
