IMF commended Malaysia for its economic plans
KUALA LUMPUR – The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has commended Malaysia’s economic reforms, including the introduction of the Fiscal Responsibility Act (FRA) 2023 and reforms to electricity and diesel subsidies. The IMF described these measures as crucial for creating an inclusive and resilient economy amid global uncertainties.
Malaysia’s economic performance improved in 2024, driven by strong domestic and external demand, but growth is expected to moderate from 5.0% in 2024 to 4.7% in 2025 due to increasing global uncertainties.
The fund emphasized the importance of accelerating structural changes under the MADANI Economic Framework to rebuild fiscal buffers, enhance social protection, and ensure macroeconomic stability.
