Malaysia Can Ace Trade War Test – The Star Op-Ed by IMPS

Our Managing Director, Amir Isyam Abdul Rahim, has been featured in The Star with his latest op-ed, “Malaysia Can Ace Trade War Test.”

In the article, Amir explores how Malaysia can navigate the shifting global trade landscape amid the recent US “Liberation Day” tariffs—measures that mark more than just a trade dispute, but a deeper geopolitical contest between global powers.

He highlights how these developments are accelerating the restructuring of global trade and supply chains, and stresses the need for Malaysia to move beyond short-term reactions. Instead, Amir calls for a redefinition of our long-term industrial strategy—one that builds resilience, strengthens trade networks, and positions Malaysia to seize emerging opportunities in this new global order.

Curious to learn how Malaysia can turn these challenges into a strategic advantage?
