Malaysia to explain measures in response to US tariffs

Kuala Lumpur, May 5 (Prensa Latina) Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will address Parliament in a special session to detail the government's plans and measures in the face of reciprocal tariffs imposed by the United States.

The session, scheduled for 11:00 a.m., will focus on the US decision and its implications for the Malaysian economy, according to the agenda posted on Parliament’s website.

Anwar will explain the government’s response across different ministries and sectors, as well as the coordination of short- and medium-term solutions, including the review of existing policies for certain industries.

He will also address long-term economic plans to mitigate the impact of the international trade war and ensure the resilience of the Malaysian economy.

Following Anwar’s address, parliamentarians will have the opportunity to seek clarifications and express their views, to which the relevant ministers will respond.
