Ahmad: Malaysia maintaining 4%-5% GDP forecast

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is maintaining its gross domestic product (GDP) forecast of 4% to 5% in 2023, says Deputy Finance Minister I Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan.

“We appreciate and respect the World Bank’s statement, as it was based on its analysis. But we will keep our forecast at around 4% to 5%, as there has been no change in terms of the projections or if there’s any big growth expected this year,” he said.
