Malaysia to continue negotiations with US on tariffs, says Anwar
Anwar speaking at the launch of Esteel Enterprise Sabah Sdn Bhd Phase 1 on Friday. KOTA KINABALU (May 30): Malaysia maintains its stance on negotiation to resolve the issue of tariffs imposed by the administration of US President Donald Trump. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said negotiations are crucial to ensuring strong Malaysia-US bilateral relations, as the US is Malaysia's third-largest trading partner after Singapore and China. 'We live in challenging times where we face significant direct and indirect impacts from the tariffs announced by the US. However, let's look at this positively — we will continue negotiations because the US is a key investor in Malaysia. American investments are among the highest in Malaysia, and we must maintain good relations with them,' he said at the launch of Esteel Enterprise Sabah Sdn Bhd (Esteel) Phase 1 on Friday. Anwar stressed that Malaysia's position is also important to ensure that any trade agreements or tariffs are fair and comply with international laws. 'I will meet with US officials and also Singaporean President Lawrence Wong to discuss Malaysia-Singapore dialogue, showing that both nations will maintain strong ties as key trading partners,' he explained. He added that Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz had also gone to the US to negotiate, presenting Malaysia's stance alongside ASEAN nations, as well as Korea, Japan, and China, which support bilateral trade relations and oppose unilateral actions.
