Malaysia’s improved bilateral relationship with the US has strengthened the Southeast Asian country’s position in its negotiation on potential semiconductor tariffs, according to a minister. The nation is within a “small group of Washington’s key partners,” following an upgrade in ties to Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, said Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Zafrul Aziz . That gives Malaysia a “direct line of sight to high tech-investment opportunities, technology transfer, and more secure supply chain access,” he told parliament on Wednesday.
