Future-Proofing Malaysia: Are We Ready for What’s Next?

In this edition of ASLI Insights; TL;DR, we cover the recent foresight report by UNDP and MIGHT.

It was found that Malaysia is significantly prepared in only one out of six key socioeconomic areas.

This report assesses Malaysia’s readiness to handle future socio-economic challenges based on the nation’s policies and acts.

🔍 Key Findings:

- Economic Shifts: Malaysia shows strong preparedness, indicating a robust ability to adapt to economic changes.

- Moderate Preparedness: Areas such as the labour market, healthcare, and quality of life are progressing but still have gaps to fill.

- Areas for Improvement: Fiscal sustainability and climate disaster readiness are identified as the least prepared sectors, critical for future stability and safety.

A foresight report is crucial as it prepares us to anticipate and tackle future challenges proactively.

For Malaysia, enhancing fiscal health means diversifying revenue sources and improving tax systems, while boosting climate resilience involves investing in sustainable infrastructure and early warning systems.

🔈 Call to Action:
This journey requires collective effort from the government, private sectors, and every citizen. Let’s unite to enhance Malaysia’s readiness for future challenges.
