The World Bank projects Malaysia’s economic growth at 3.9% for 2025, citing global challenges. This forecast, shared by Dr. Apurva Sanghi, World Bank Lead Economist for Malaysia, contrasts with higher projections for Vietnam (5.8%), Indonesia (4.7%), the Philippines (5.3%), Cambodia (4.0%), and Thailand (1.6%), while China is expected at 4.0%. Bank Negara Malaysia’s Governor, Datuk Seri Abdul Rasheed Ghaffour, noted that the current 4.5%–5.5% GDP growth target may be revised downward due to U.S. tariffs, though no immediate adjustments are planned. The IMF also lowered Malaysia’s 2025 GDP growth forecast to 4.1% from 4.7%.
