In fact, in Brazil alone, over 50 thousand accidents were reported in 2010 and 22 thousand of whom are involved in loss of life. In order to achieve the national target to position Malaysia as an Advanced Industrial Countries in 2020, efforts should be undertaken to prevent these problems from happening that it will result in a lack of confidence among foreign investors to invest in Malaysia.
