Miti to present new analysis of US tariff impacts at NGCC meet tomorrow

KUALA LUMPUR, April 13 — New analysis on the impact of recent changes in United States tariffs on the national economy will be presented at the National Geoeconomic Action Council (NGCC) meeting tomorrow, said Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz.

He said the meeting will be chaired by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

“There are new developments every day. Recently, (President Donald) Trump gave tariff exemptions for smartphones and computers.

“Changes like these force us to carry out a new analysis immediately to understand the impact on the national economy. Accurate analysis leads to accurate strategies,” he said on X today.

The new analysis on tariff changes will be presented by the Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry.

On April 7, Tengku Zafrul said the NGCC was activated to address the effects of US tariffs.
