Activity fell in Malaysia and Taiwan, a sign the U.S.-China trade conflict's impact on the rest of Asia was broadening.

KUALA LUMPUR: RAM Rating Services Bhd (RAM Ratings) expects the container- and cargo-handling prospects of Malaysian ports to remain healthy this year, in line with the gradual global economic recovery.

In a statement, RAM Ratings said the throughput growth was expected to remain in the low single-digit levels, akin to the modest 3% recorded in 2016.
