Malaysia’s economic expansion pace decelerated for the fourth quarter in a row in July-to-September as commodity exports and state-backed investments fell, although the central bank expects growth to edge higher in the months ahead, Nikkei Asian Review reports. Malaysia’s Pakatan Harapan government will adopt a three-pronged approach in its efforts to improve the country’s economy, give confidence to investors and raise the quality of life of the people, said Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng on Sunday. Amid the GDP growth slow-down, Malaysia has seen its current account surplus narrowing as portfolio investment saw a net inflow of RM0.6 billion, compared with an outflow of RM38.3 billion in the second quarter of 2018, according to Business Times.
