KUALA LUMPUR: Economists have projected the Malaysian economy to expand between 4.5 per cent and 5.5 per cent in the second quarter of 2025 (2Q 2025), driven partly by increased export demand, especially from the United States (US) importers due to heightened fears of impending tariff in August.
Putra Business School Associate Professor Dr Ahmed Razman Abdul Latiff said the service, manufacturing and construction sectors are likely to contribute the most to 2Q 2025 growth.
