Malaysia BIP Veränderung zum Vorjahr

Malaysia’s economy advanced 5.7% yoy in Q4 2025, accelerating from a 5.2% rise in Q3 and marking the strongest growth since Q2 2024, flash data showed. Manufacturing activity gained momentum (6.0% vs 4.1% in Q3), lifted by higher output in electrical and optical products, vegetable and animal oils, fats and food processing, non-metallic mineral products, and basic metal and fabricated metals. The agriculture sector also picked up strongly (5.1% vs 0.4%), boosted by a rebound in palm oil. Meanwhile, the construction sector kept its double-digit expansion (11.9% vs 11.8%), helped by a solid rise in non-residential buildings and specialised construction. However, mining and quarrying were subdued (1.1% vs 9.7%), dragged by a slowdown in crude oil & condensate and a fall in natural gas. Quarterly, the economy expanded 3.0%, after an upwardly revised 5.4% rise in Q3, which had been the fastest gain since Q4 2021. For the full year, the economy grew 4.9%, slightly slowing from 5.1% in 2024.
