Fuel & Fiscal Targets : Can Malaysia Stay the Course?

Malaysia’s fiscal deficit narrowed by 17% in the Q1 of 2025, talks that a RON95 subsidy rationalisation may soon be happening and the ringgit strengthening the most in recent years. Yet the road ahead looks far from smooth. Dr Afzanizam Abdul Rashid, Chief Economist at Bank Muamalat, discusses these issues.
