Malaysia will intensify collaboration with other palm oil producing countries to consider more concerted efforts to voice its strong concern before the various committees under the WTO, Mustapa said.
KUALA LUMPUR: Minister of International Trade and Industry (MITI) Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed says he will be providing answers on how Malaysia can cushion the impact from the US-China trade war.
"Today is the last day of the 13th Parliament session and I'll be answering a question in Dewan Rakyat on the issues and challenges related to the impending trade war between the United States and China.
“I will also answer on Malaysia's possible measures to meet the impacts from the trade war,” he said at the 2018 Asia-Pacific Council of American Chambers of Commerce summit.
Mustapa also said the time is ripe now for the Parliament's dissolution which was likely to be dissolved within the next few days.
"MITI's day-to-day operations have been taken over by my secretary-general. The Parliament will be dissolved in the next few days, but I am not sure when.
“I will be hitting the ground for more engagements in the next few days more actively than before," he said.
