KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's trade reached a record monthly high in July with exports soaring 38 percent year-on-year. The surge in trade was driven by strong growth in both exports and imports, resulting in a trade surplus that has now stretched for 75 consecutive months since May 2020. Exports increased by RM32 billion, hitting a record monthly value, while imports grew by 36.4 percent.
The Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry reported that exports and imports both set new records for the January-July period, surpassing previous highs.
