KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's inflation eased to 1.3 per cent in October 2025, down from 1.5 per cent in September 2025, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM).
In releasing the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for October 2025, DOSM said the moderation was mainly driven by slower price increases in the food and beverages group, which rose 1.5 per cent (Sept 2025: 2.1 per cent), and in the housing, water, electricity, gas and other fuels group, which recorded a 1.1 per cent increase (Sept 2025: 1.5 per cent).
