Led by the private sector, the ETP will transform Malaysia into a high-income country with a Gross National Income (GNI) per capita of at least US15,000 by 2020, with 74% of this growth delivered by the National Key Economic Areas (NKEAs). The ETP aims to attract investments worth a total of US$444bn in 131 entry point projects (EPPs) and 60 business opportunities to propel the country's gross national income (GNI) to US$523bn. The ETP will create over three million jobs, the majority of which will be middle-income or high-income jobs. To calculate the GNI impact, each NKEA lab has identified initiatives, classified as either entry point projects (EPPs) or business opportunities. By 2020, the structure of the Malaysian economy would have changed significantly, whereby services will account for a bigger share of the economy at 65% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) from 58% in 2010. Domestic consumption will be the key driver of growth, accounting for 59% of GDP by 2020 compared to 54% in 2010. This means, Malaysia will reduce its reliance on exports as a driver of demand and would be in line with developed economies like Taiwan and New Zealand, in terms of domestic demand growth. This seminar will present in full the details of the ETP, the 131 EPPs, and the 60 business opportunities. Participants will have the golden opportunity of being briefed on these developments from His Excellency Dato' Sri Idris Jala, Minister, Prime Minister's Office and His Excellency Dato' Sri Mustapa Mohamed, Minister of International Trade & Industry.
