"The Vision of Mutual Prosperity is an effort to make Malaysia a country that is constantly developing along with fair and inclusive economic distribution at every level of the value chain, class, race and geography to create a sense of place harmony and stability among the people through 2030," he said.

"It is being done with the objective of making Malaysia greater and one of the important economic axes in Asia," he added.

Mahathir stressed that Malaysians needed to respect one another as tolerance and mutual understanding were key to maintaining harmony in the multi-racial and multicultural country.
