Malaysia’s labour market expected to improve in the next few months economists Arjuna Chandran Shankar © Provided by The Edge KUALA LUMPUR (April 8): Economists opine that Malaysia’s labour market is stabilising and is expected to improve in the next few months. UOB Global Economics & Market Research senior economist Julia Goh and economist Loke Siew Ting said in a note that despite the extension of movement restrictions and inter-state travel ban, jobs data for January to February indicated higher labour force participation rate and gains in employment show a stabilising labour market. “More economic activity such as education, school bus services, and domestic tourism activities within the green zones have restarted in March. This was followed by the lifting of the 30% work from office limit from April 1, which will allow businesses to operate at 100% capacity,” they noted.

Malaysia: BNM sees economy expanding 6 0%-7 5% in 2021 – UOB

Apr 6, 2021 14:51 GMTFXStreet News Senior Economist at UOB Group Julia Goh and Economist Loke Siew Ting evaluate the recent BNM growth projections. Key Quotes “Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) projects the economy to rebound by 6.0% – 7.5% in 2021 (2020: -5.6%). Despite a slight downward adjustment from previous official forecasts of 6.5% – 7.5%, this remains an optimistic outlook and above our GDP forecasts of 5.0% for 2021. Positive growth will only be seen from 2Q21 given the tightening of containment measures earlier this year.” “Key drivers of growth include external and domestic factors that will lift all economic sectors as the effects of the pandemic gradually recedes and the economy normalizes amid ongoing rollout of vaccines. Potential upside catalysts include stronger global growth, release of pent-up demand amid excess savings, ongoing targeted policy support, and effects of digitalisation to unlock higher demand. Downside risks include escalation in COVID-19 case

FTSE Russell likely to keep Malaysia on watch list

Nevertheless, the actual risk of exclusion is low, they add. “It is unlikely that Malaysia will be removed from FTSE Russell’s WGBI given the positive discussions between FTSE Russell and the regulatory authorities, along with the ongoing effort by Bank Negara Malaysia to provide better market access for foreign investors,” senior economist Wong Khai Jhek of RAM Rating Services Bhd tells The Edge. “That said, should FTSE Russell decide that more time is needed to assess the efficacies of some of the more recent liberalisation initiatives, there is still a possibility that it might decide to keep Malaysia on its watch list, albeit the probability is certainly lower than before,” he adds.
