KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 1 — The United States (US) imposes a reduced 19 per cent tariff on Malaysian imports, effective Aug 1, 2025.

On July 7, Washington announced it would impose a 25 per cent tariff on all Malaysian products entering the country, separate from sectoral tariffs, effective Aug 1 this year — one percentage point higher than what was announced in April.


US President Donald Trump said there would be no tariff if Malaysia, or Malaysian companies, chose to build or manufacture products within the US.

Since April, Malaysia has been negotiating the tariff with Washington, aiming to reduce the earlier 24 per cent rate. The latest round of talks was held on June 18 this year. — Bernama

  2. Buy lah one squadron of F16s, helicopters, boms and Boeings from Bullyland every year for the next 3-4 years to "balance the trade", until Trump's term is over. He may agree to bring it down from 19%, to 10%. Then all our barangan expot can continue full access to the wonderfully rich Bully market. I still want to buy that Ford Mustang for RM120,000.

    In the meantime it's one shekel per day for me. Rupert is so kedekut, typical Isaac...ha3.
