Malaysia Economy Watch: The World Bank says Malaysia is on track for 4.4% growth in 2026, but warns the outlook is clouded by geopolitics, trade tensions, weaker global demand, market volatility and policy uncertainty. Digital Connectivity: A major boost for the region’s internet backbone—Asia Link Cable (ALC) has landed in Hong Kong, linking China, Singapore and branches reaching the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei and Malaysia, with commercial operations expected later this year. ASEAN Culture Row: Cebu Governor Pamela Baricuatro defended removing the Santo Niño from a Lumad Basakanon performance at the ASEAN summit, saying it was done for religious sensitivity toward diverse delegates. Energy Security Push: ASEAN leaders are again circling fuel resilience, with Cebu backing a possible regional fuel reserve as Middle East tensions keep supply risks front and centre. Local Governance: Sabah’s leaders are calling for tougher enforcement of vehicle load limits after overloaded timber and palm oil lorries are blamed for worsening road damage.
