Annual time series data for the 1970 to 2014 periods, the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) and Unit Root Test such as Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Phillips Perron (PP) are used for the analysis.

However, CPS is the only variable that contributes significantly negative to GDP growth in Malaysia. Based on the result, it is recommended by sustaining the stability on money supply by implementing an appropriate monetary policy as it will directly impact the size and growth rate of the money supply, which impacts the interest rates in economy which able to enhance GDP growth, identify solutions for current economic problems.
