Former Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) governor Zeti Akhtar Aziz has decided to stop giving media interviews as she had learned her lesson well.

"I don't give interviews anymore. I learned my lesson already," she said at an event in Kuala Lumpur on today.

However, Zeti did not explain the reason for declining to give future interviews to the news media.

When asked if the reason was that she had been quite vocal in recent interviews, she said she only spoke to the media in conjunction with the 20th anniversary of the Asian Financial Crisis (June 29)...
