Share resources among Asean to offset Trump's tariff, says Perantim

KUALA LUMPUR: A harmonisation of Asean medical device industry regulations will be the key to protecting the regional industry from Trump’s tariffs, says the Malaysian Medical Device Manufacturers Association (Perantim).

Perantim president Johari Abu Kasim said this was due to most Asean exporters already beginning to notice a slowdown in exports to the United States as uncertainties surrounding the tariffs continue.
