PETALING JAYA: Economists are mostly maintaining their projections for Malaysia’s economic growth for 2025 on the back of resilient domestic demand even as the pace of growth for the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2024 (4Q24) as measured by gross domestic product (GDP) may have slowed down.
Advanced estimates released by the Statistics Department last Friday showed that GDP for 4Q24 may have risen 4.8% year-on-year on the back of solid growth from the more domestic-oriented services and construction sectors of the economy.
