GDP Growth Eased Further In 3Q And Outlook Revised Downward Malaysia’s real GDP growth moderated to 4.7% y-o-y in 3Q 2015, from +4.9% in 2Q and +5.7% in 1Q, which was in line with the consensus estimate but above our expectation of 4.4%. Domestic demand remained the anchor of growth in 3Q, albeit slowing down on the back of weaker growth of private and public consumption.
