The independent variables which were used in this study are exchange rate, inflation rate and trade openness. The results of the multiple regression showed that inflation rate and trade openness have positive relationship while exchange rate has negative relationship. Besides, all the three independent variables have significant relationship with FDI in Malaysia as the p�value of study is less than 5 per cent significant level.

Furthermore, in order to test the presence of multicollinearity, VIF has been conducted while to test the presence of heteroskedasticity, Breusch-Pagan test has been used. In order to test for autocorrelation, Breusch-Pagan-Godfrey Serial Correlation LM test has also been conducted. Due to the presence of heteroskedasticity, lag had been applied in this model in order for it to be fit. 2019-12 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en http://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/41944/1/41944.pdf Beckul Wang, Brenda (2019) The determinants of foreign direct investment inflows in Malaysia / Brenda Beckul Wang.
