GDP seen at 4-4.5% in Q4

PETALING JAYA: After a slower growth of 4.4% in the third quarter of 2019 (3Q19), economists have forecast that the Malaysian economy expanded in the range of 4% to 4.5% in last year’s final quarter.

At such a growth rate, Malaysia could likely miss the government’s target for 2019 and witness a slower pace of economic expansion for a second consecutive year.
