KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 24 — A study of 28 countries by global communications firm Edelman found that Malaysia was among the least polarised countries, along with neighbours Singapore and Indonesia.

“If neglected, the result will be increased levels of polarisation, slowing economic growth, deeper discrimination, and an inherent inability to solve problems. CEOs, and the companies they lead, must play a central role in addressing these issues and in helping restore economic optimism.” Countries designated as"severely polarised" were Colombia, the United States, South Africa, Spain and Sweden — with Argentina ranked as the most severe in both factors.

This comes as four in 10 Malaysian respondents said that the country is"more divided today than in the past".
