Malaysia Inc. A Double-Edged Sword

Malaysia Inc's comeback suggests the promise of government-managed good times reminiscent of the 90s. At the same time it also raises fears of cronyism and corruption which dotted the period.

Meanwhile MAVCOM that the US FAA's safety downgrade of Malaysian carrier and airports may have negative knock-on effects.
