KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's 2021 economic growth forecast could be lowered due to new lockdown measures that do not allow non-essential businesses to operate, the finance minister said on Tuesday.
Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz did not give a new forecast. He also said Malaysia's fiscal deficit will likely be higher than the 6% target announced earlier. - Reuters
