Without mentioning the US, Anwar described tariffs, export restrictions and investment barriers as “sharpened instruments of geopolitical rivalry”. He also called on Asean members to “act with purpose” and enhance trade among each other. His comments came just days after US President Donald Trump announced hefty levies on six Southeast Asian countries. Malaysia now faces 25 per cent tariffs, which is one percentage point higher than the rate unveiled by the unpredictable US president on April 2. Anwar said US tariffs would be at the forefront of his agenda when he meets US Secretary of State Marco Rubio later in the week. Support us: subscribe.scmp.com Follow us on: Website: scmp.c...
