After this interview was filmed, Malaysia announced a revised poverty line measurement that increased their poverty rate from 0.4% to 5.6%, still short of the 15% found by independent analysis.

  5. Malaysia is living in full lies, thinking that they are economic power in the South East Asia, where in fact their poverty is considered a large sinkhole of its own shits starting to smell by their neighboring countries.

  6. malaysia akan berubah sekirannya kerajaan dipimpin oleh golongan muda yg berpelajaran.tpi ramai golongan muda xnk msuk politik kerana politik kotor..but bnyk golongan muda lagi cerdik dn efektif dripada ahli politik yg sekarang ni..bukan saya nk cakap pandai ke ape tpi aq lebih layak untuk memimpin negara daripada ahli politik tua bodoh yang ada kt malaysia ni..

  7. If you think Malaysia is bad, wait till you see Singapore that city state has one of highest rates of economic inequality in the world, labor rights are very repressed that there is no universal minimum wage law.

  8. Philip Alston says that the Government says they were no poor people so there are no specific strategy???? Do you investigate truly!!! We have lembaga Zakat that gives money to the poor, we have lots of NGO that gives free food to the needs. Some provide shelters. In Malaysia, there are ways to get free education. It is overstatement that the government done nothing. Everyone can get out of the poverty IF they determine to work hard for it.

  9. They are stateless, neither Phillipines nor Malaysia recognize them as citizen….no matter what, they are human being, deserve better life…😢😢😢

  10. Despite there are truth is this matter you cannot say only all negative things about Malaysia and leave all good things, no capitalist country in this world is totally rich people. There must be a poor people to support the rich. There is the only truths.
