Chairman’s Message

Tan Sri William Cheng scaled

TAN SRI DATUK SERI UTAMA WILLIAM CHENG HENG JEM

Bank Negara forecasted that Malaysia’s economy will expand by 4.5% to 5.5% in 2025 `driven by robust expansion in investment activity, continued improvement in exports, and resilient household spending’. Sector-wise, the economy is expected to be spurred by construction benefiting from infrastructure and data centre projects; utilities seeing gains from rising demand alongside investments in renewable energy and data centre development; plantation, driven by strong palm oil demand and stable crude palm oil prices; manufacturing especially the electrical and electronics sector with greater exports; banking which is poised to grow due to healthy loan growth, rising consumption and capital market activities; and tourism with increasing tourist arrivals which augurs well for tourism-related activities such as the retail, transportation and hospitality sectors.

Household spending or private consumption which is one of the key growth drivers, will see an increase with the hike in minimum wage from RM1,500 to RM1,700 a month with effect from February 2025. However, spending may be curbed due to the proposed increase of 14.2% in base electricity tariff which will impact industries too, and the proposed removal of RON95 petrol blanket subsidy to be replaced by a targeted subsidy, both to be effective in the second half of 2025.
