M'sia plunges from 16th to 51st in Bloomberg's Covid resilience ranking

Malaysia has fallen significantly and is near the bottom of the heap in the '2021 Bloomberg Covid Resilience Ranking' for the month of June - ranking 51st position out of 53 economies measured in economy size of more than US$200 billion.

It is a sharp decline considering that Malaysia was ranked 16th on the same scale in January of this year, a time when the administration of Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin declared an emergency to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.
