The US government on Monday launched a tool for refunding more than $166 billion in revenue from tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump and subsequently struck down by the Supreme Court.
The conservative-majority high court in February ruled against a swath of Trump’s tariffs, marking a stinging rebuke of his key economic policy and opening the door to refunds.

On Monday, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said it has activated the first phase of its processing tool, meaning that importers and customs brokers can start submitting documentation to recover their payments.

US President Donald Trump’s administration on Friday issued a month-long sanctions waiver allowing the sale of Russian oil and petroleum products that are at sea, extending an earlier move to soften surging energy prices.
The licence, issued by the treasury department, comes two days after treasury secretary Scott Bessent said that Washington would not renew the waiver.

The latest move allows for the purchase of oil and petroleum products that have been loaded onto any vessel as of Friday through 12.01am (0401 GMT) on May 16.

Singapore’s business lobby has joined the government in pushing back against a sweeping US trade probe that alleges manufacturing overcapacity and failures to enforce bans on imports linked to forced labour.
A day after the Ministry of Trade and Industry defended its trade regime as being aligned with international standards, the Singapore Business Federation said it has filed a formal response of its own.

“We urge the US Administration to recognize our shared commitment to fair, market-oriented trade and to avoid measures that would disrupt the deeply intertwined supply chains,” Kok Ping Soon, chief executive of the federation, said in a statement on Thursday.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has projected that Malaysia’s economy will grow by 4.6% this year before edging up slightly to 4.7% in 2027.
The ADB forecast is broadly in line with projections by the World Bank, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), and the government.

BNM expects growth of 4% to 5%, while the statistics department has projected growth of 4% to 4.5%. The World Bank recently revised its forecast upwards to 4.4% from 4.1%.

Malaysia, a leading palm oil exporter, is well placed to supply edible oils to countries facing rising food prices and fertiliser disruptions due to the Strait of Hormuz closure.
Julian McGill, the managing director of UK-based economic advisory firm Glenauk Economics, attributed this to palm oil production being less affected by fertiliser supply disruptions due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

He said that oil palm, Malaysia’s most important crop, accounts for around 75% of the country’s planted area and has several characteristics that put the sector in a safe position.

“Customs operations are limited to standard office hours, from 8am to 6pm, and are closed on weekends, while port activities operate 24 hours a day,” said Jeyenderan.

The government’s Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026) campaign may take a hit from the escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and a shift in global sentiment, says TA Research.
The campaign’s ambitious target of 47 million international arrivals and RM329 billion in tourism receipts may be impacted by headwinds from rising geopolitical tensions in the region, the research house said in a note today.

“The escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East comes at a pivotal moment for Malaysia, coinciding with the launch of Visit Malaysia 2026. The campaign now faces mounting headwinds that could challenge its momentum,” it said.

Malaysia is among 60 countries facing investigations by the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) over alleged failures to ban and effectively enforce restrictions on imports of goods produced with forced labour.
A USTR statement said the investigations will examine whether the acts, policies, or practices of the economies involved are “unreasonable or discriminatory” and whether they burden or restrict US commerce.

The forced labour probe comes as the US yesterday announced it was launching trade investigations into excess industrial capacity in Malaysia and 15 other major trading partners.

President Donald Trump’s administration started the first of several sweeping trade investigations that set the stage for new tariffs, the centrepiece of a push to replace levies struck down by the US Supreme Court.
US trade representative (USTR) Jamieson Greer announced yesterday that his office would begin a probe into more than a dozen major economies under Section 301 of the Trade Act focused on alleged excess manufacturing capacity.

The investigations, which typically take months to complete, are required for the president to unilaterally place duties on imports from specific countries deemed to employ unfair trading practices.

Petronas Chemicals Group Bhd (PetChem) shares have surged as much as 42% since the US and Israel launched strikes on Iran last weekend.
Analysts said the company is seen as a prime beneficiary of the Iran crisis as it gets its feedstock supplies from within Malaysia rather than the Middle East, where deliveries have ground to a halt following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

PetChem shares jumped as much as 21.6% or 76 sen to RM4.27 today before paring some of its gains to settle at RM4.20 at the midday break. At this price, the group is valued at RM33.6 billion.

Petronas has activated its business continuity protocols for its United Arab Emirates (UAE) operations to ensure operational and financial performance across the region.
In an email response to Bernama, the national oil company said as part of these measures, the group has commenced the temporary relocation of personnel from its operations in Abu Dhabi and Dubai as a precautionary step.

“All operations in the UAE continue to be managed through alternative arrangements. Operations outside of the UAE across the region continue as usual,” it added.
