KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 12 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim told Parliament today that investments and trade from Taiwan remain unaffected despite recent diplomatic friction over Malaysia’s adherence to the One-China policy.
Speaking during PM Question Time, Anwar said checks with the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) confirmed that existing operations by Taiwanese companies are running smoothly and new investments continue to flow into the country, particularly in high-value sectors such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence (AI), and microchips.
“As of now, is it affected? No. We continue to receive investors, and up to this year, imports and exports have surged significantly,” he said.
