Malaysian economy to grow 4.0-4.5% in 2026 – PM Anwar

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian economy is expected to experience moderate growth of four to 4.5 per cent in 2026 compared to 2025 on the back of a challenging global landscape, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said this was based on the government projection of growth this year of between four per cent and 4.8%.

Despite the drag of regional conflicts and tariff-related headwinds, Malaysia’s domestic fundamentals remain strong, enabling Malaysia to weather external shocks more effectively, he said in the preface of the Fiscal Outlook and Federal Government Revenue Estimates 2026 released by the Finance Ministry today.

“Malaysia’s structural reform journey continues on solid fiscal footing, reinforcing the principle of prudent public finance management, amidst a global landscape marked by uncertainty.

“This confidence is shared by international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and World Bank which continue to hold a firm outlook for Malaysia even as dark clouds gather over the global economy,” said Anwar, who is also the Finance Minister.

He said Malaysia’s economy continues to chart a steady and resilient growth path, with an expansion of 4.4 per cent in the first half of 2025, placing the country among the region’s strongest performers.

This momentum was driven by robust domestic demand, underpinned by sustained investment flows, rising wages and a stable labour market, he said.

“Malaysia’s leap of 11 places in the 2025 IMD World Competitiveness Ranking among all countries is a clear vote of confidence in our fundamentals. Ranked 23rd, we are now at our strongest position since 2020,” he said.

He noted that the government remains unwavering in its resolve to address the deep-rooted structural challenges such as income inequality, regional development disparities, climate change and ageing demographics.

Meanwhile, the fiscal deficit narrowed from 5.5% of GDP in 2022 to 4.1% in 2024, with a further reduction to 3.5 per cent targeted for 2026 and three per cent in the medium term under the Public Finance and Fiscal Responsibility Act 2023 (Act 850).

“Rebuilding fiscal buffers is indispensable, more than ever, as economic shocks become more frequent and more severe in today’s volatile global climate. To narrow the deficit, fiscal reforms are in full swing,” Anwar said.

He also said Act 850 and the newly introduced Government Procurement Bill 2025 are also part of efforts to enhance accountability, transparency and operating efficiency.

The Prime Minister said enhancements to the Sales and Service Tax (SST), e-invoicing implementation, and targeted subsidy rationalisation, including diesel, RON95 and electricity, have generated billions of ringgit in savings.

These savings, he said, are being rechannelled to strengthen aid and direct social assistance, with allocations for Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) and Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) expanding by 50 per cent in just one year to RM15 billion, benefitting up to 22 million Malaysians. – Bernama

A is the letter that was used to represent a team in an old TV show, The A-Team.
In musical notation, the letter A is the symbol of a note in the
scale, below B and above G. That is not surprising, because it means the same sound.
To add A, a to a word list please sign up or log in. There are
also precomposed character encodings for ⟨A⟩ and ⟨a⟩ with diacritics, for most of those
listed above; the remainder are produced using combining
diacritics. The double ⟨aa⟩ sequence does not occur in native
English words, but is found in some words derived from foreign languages such as Aaron and aardvark.

In English, ⟨a⟩ is the indefinite article (with the alternative form
an when followed by a vowel). When the Romans adopted the
Etruscan alphabet to write Latin, the resulting form used
in the Latin script would come to be used to write many other
languages, including English. The Etruscans brought the Greek
alphabet to the Italian Peninsula, and they left the form of alpha unchanged.
However, in the later Greek alphabet it generally resembles the modern capital form—though many local varieties can be distinguished by the shortening of one leg, or by the angle at which the cross line is set.
In speech and writing a is used before a consonant sound.

This is the sound that the letter now normally represents when the vowel is long.
