Malaysia’s trade surplus soared to MYR 19.0 billion in October 2025, up from MYR 12.0 billion in the same month last year and exceeding expectations of MYR 16.4 billion, as exports outpaced imports. Exports grew 15.7% year-on-year to a record high of MYR 148.3 billion, following an upwardly revised 12.5% increase in August. This marked the fastest export growth in six months, despite a decline in shipments to the US due to newly imposed tariffs. Growth was driven by higher sales in the manufacturing sector (15.7%), agriculture (20.3%), and mining (8.0%), with exports rising mainly to Singapore (27.2%), China (7.5%), Hong Kong (36.7%), and Japan (6.6%). Meanwhile, imports rose 9.7% to a record MYR 129.3 billion, surpassing forecasts of 5.8% growth, supported by higher imports of capital goods (51.9%) and consumption goods (3.6%). For the first ten months of 2025, Malaysia recorded a trade surplus of MYR 125 billion, with exports and imports rising 6.0% and 4.7%, respectively.
