“There was a slight drop overall in Malaysia’s import and export performance, but we also take note that the trade decline in February was much larger than March, when we look from a year-on-year comparison, and March has improved compared to February. “For further impacts on Malaysia, we will wait and see what’s the actual policy announcement from a tariff perspective from the US and Chinese governments,” he said.
The country’s trade in February 2019 declined by 7.2 per cent to RM122.15 billion compared to February 2018.
