Malaysia’s exports grew 38% year-on-year in July to RM193.6 billion, moderating from June’s 45% rise but remaining strong.

Exports to major markets rose sharply — the US (+58%), China (+49%) and at least +17% to other key partners. Imports rose 36% to RM171.14 billion, led by capital goods (+24%) and intermediate goods (+40%); consumption goods imports climbed 5.2%.
