KUALA LUMPUR: A rousing performance across key economic sectors lifted Malaysia’s gross domestic product (GDP) by 4.4 per cent in the first quarter of 2025 (1Q 2025), in line with the GDP advance estimates and higher than the 4.2 per cent growth recorded in 1Q 2024.
The Ministry of Finance (MOF) said the GDP growth in 1Q 2025 was buoyed by the services (5.0 per cent), manufacturing (4.1 per cent), and construction (14.2 per cent) sectors.
