Imports rose by 49.3% to RM124.23 billion while trade surplus declined marginally by 0.8% to RM21.93 billion.

The export growth was contributed by strong demand for electrical and electronic (E&E) products, petroleum products, liquefied natural gas (LNG) as well as palm oil and palm oil-based agriculture products. Exports to most major trading partners notably ASEAN, the United States (US), the European Union (EU) and Japan recorded double-digit growth. Highest monthly export value was registered to ASEAN, the US and the EU.

On a month-on-month (m-o-m) basis, trade, exports, imports and trade surplus expanded by 18.4%, 21.3%, 15.2% and 72.7%, respectively.
