00:01
An opposition MP has urged the government to explain why tariff negotiations with the U.S. failed
00:08
following the imposition of a 25% rate on Malaysian goods effective August 1st.
00:14
In a Facebook post, Tasik Galugor MP Wan Saiful Wan Jan said the Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry's
00:21
goal of talks with Washington would naturally have been to lower the tariff rate.
00:27
However, the 25% rate announced by U.S. President Donald Trump today was higher than the 24% originally imposed.
00:35
He added that this clearly shows the government has failed to fulfill the nation's hopes on U.S. tariffs
00:41
and reflects the relevant minister's failure to defend the nation's interests.
00:45
The Bersatu Supreme Council member also said the development meant that the funds used to send Malaysian delegations
00:52
for trade talks with the U.S. had gone to waste.
00:55
Meanwhile, Miti said it will continue discussions with its U.S. counterparts
01:00
and that it remains committed to engaging the U.S. on a balanced and mutually beneficial trade agreement.
