coming up, malaysia's finance minister will be joining us in davos. stay tuned for that conversation, next. this is bloomberg. ♪ guy: right, let's go back to davos, where we are standing by with the malaysian finance minister. >> we are interested in malaysia because it is an oil exporter, the number two exporter of [indiscernible] so let's get the perspective of prime minister zafrul aziz. i guess that malaysia is in a pretty good spot, is it helping you to achieve your growth target for the year as estimated by the central bank? zafrul: first of all, thank you for having me, it's good to be back in davos. for malaysia, you are right, we just posted fiscal quarter results that were strong above market expectations. it had been 5%. optimistically on track to six point 3%. the second quarter looks strong as well, driven by consumption and of course commodity prices have helped malaysia. however, having said that, what is also a concern, the challenge that malaysia faces that we continue to support, subsidies, increased subsidies, we can see that infl

the theme around malaysia is how to divide the customer. we intermediate the exchange but we are also looking at all investors. it is about providing greater transparency and more information about what we have on the exchange is a call to action for investors. haslinda: speaking of delighting the customers and retail investors, how are you delighting them so they can compensate for any amount of outflows you may see? muhamad: at the end of the day, what we have been doing is lunching additional initiatives encouraging what we would call our modest gems. it is bringing these assets to market. and drawing attention to investors to the abilities of these assets. there is a payoff of the transformation program we launched at the exchange, which is about focusing on -- rather than just keeping up, we want to step up around disclosure, esg, to make themselves more attractive. at the exchange, there is a rare opportunity with supply chain disruption which we know his real to take advantage of those on the supply chain put malaysia manufacturing a

priyanka: malaysia was a clear surprise. inflation is the lowest in the region in malaysia. inflationary pressures are not so evident because they are really piling on those subsidies and buffering the economy. they have said that because growth was recovering so quickly, they chose to move fast. probably will see another 25 to 50 basis points hike there. that is one of the countries that has been proactive and is in a comfortable place. on the other spectrum is philippines expecting a hike. this does not -- real rates will still stay extremely negative. the joker in the pack, bi, we are expecting them to move later. india with this unscheduled rate hike tilted the balance of risk for the region as a whole. it is possible bi moves as well. rishaad: priyanka from oxford economics there. ♪ david: ok. welcome back to the show. as you can see, there are three of us now. it's been a while. have a look at central bank decisions this week, there is more than three. the bank of korea, new zealand, etc. eco go on your terminal, most are expected to hike rates. this theme will conti

we've heard from malaysia, india, so where are we on these stories? andrew: right, well, the latest one we have was india limiting sugar exports. that actually took a lot of people by surprise. they have seen a cap of 10 million tons or sugar exports. they have never actually exported that amount before. people were thinking about nine to 11 million tons, so it seems to be mainly precautionary. that is going to potentially have an impact on indonesia, which is a big shipper importer. then we had a week ago the indonesian than, which both indonesia and the philippines are big buyers. that will have a big impact there. the malaysian chicken band, which is mainly going be felt in singapore, which takes about a third of its birds from malaysia. but in an international context, this is increasing. a lot more countries are looking to do this and i think we can expect more of these types of bands or limits on the amount of exports. rishaad: andrew, what what could really happen in the region with these residents. people do not take these things lying down so

we saw that from malaysia as well, now 2%. also flatlining, bank indonesia expecting something as well. and we are seeing the bank's governor being confident inflation will return to target next year, signaling there is no rush to raise rates. in davos, he told bloomberg he is focusing on a study economic recovery. -- steady economic recovery. >> our forecast for inflation has increased. the official latest forecast would put out is increasing from 1.2% last year, this year be expect 4.9%, problem we some upside risk in the forecast. but we expect it to come back within our range next year, 1.7%. inflation is no doubt trending higher. it is higher than our inflation wage throughout the year. but i would like to point out the inflation in thailand is quite different from what we see in the advanced economies. it is mostly cost push inflation. it is relatively concentrated energy and food. we do not see the kind of demand side inflationary pressures in terms of an overheating economy. that is largely to do with asia and thailand

i didn't prosecute him at the quality poor war crimes tribunal in malaysia twice and got to unanimous convictions. i did trying to working with canadian lawyers try to get him prosecuted in canada, but the canadian government, under harper, his body aboard those proceedings. i did try to get him in teams and he bought the tanzanian government said look, we're just a small little government here in africa. you can't really expect us to go after the former president of the united states. and we were able to scare him out of switzerland for few fear of prosecution there. these are very serious matters. yes, indeed. not. not the laughing matter for the people in iraq. i'm sure now you brought on. i think my next question, what were for the evidence? did you have them in this trial against bush, the evidence it was to trans. and each trial was a 5 days long. the trial, due to point to defense, counsel barristers, there in malaysia with a team to defend bush and the documentation was just the official documentation from the united states. our records themselves were motion to rest on self i

that's not just a malaysia issue. that the regional and global issue. >> especially out of in the philippines as well as rising prices become a political issue. of course we have the philippine election. voters are turning out today. what are you expecting to be the biggest economic challenges for whoever takes the presidency? >> good question. our expectation would be inflation will really be a front and center issue in terms of near-term policymaking for the new government in utilities because we have seen inflation higher because -- higher and that is particularly hurting housel discretionary income. we know that as a result of the covid pandemic that hit the philippines particularly hard, there has been lasting scars. one of those has been rising income inequality. so, you have that double whammy, that unfortunate issue of higher income inequality as well as higher inflation hurting lower to middle income household. >> katrina ell senior economist at moody's analytics. get a roundup of the stories you need to know

what is now concerned malaysia previously the malay federation in previously, it's british, malaysia and during that period singapore grew and and to a major commercial metropolis that was fueled by immigration and it was effectively predominated by people of chinese origin. they're also people of indian origin some westerners, but generally it was predominated by the and overnight in 1965 not necessarily out of nowhere because there was troubles but out of almost out of nowhere overnight the malay federation which was recently independent from britain seceded effectively. they broke ties with singapore leaving the singaporeans sovereign at their own country, but really suddenly in a way that they had no infrastructure to maintain but all of a sudden this malay city-state became a chinese dominated country because of those historic demographics and so overnight you had a majority minority milestone where malays previously feeling like they were, you know, effectively in control the territory. we're no longer. and the and the singapore government has made incredible strides. i trying

we talk to the finance minister of malaysia about the unique challenges there. synthesizing all this at any given bank are people like marvin love, a macro strategist and he is the one reading and listening to what the experts here are saying to come up with a market. how has it changed your market view given the crises of this may? marvin: we have had a lot to deal with and a lot to understand. i think we have been in the camp that the tightening we have seen in financial conditions and synthesizing this different inflation ramp was going to evolve the way it has. we are starting to see the substitution and a pullback in spending. having said that, the inflation story and to me more important the job story is still in flux. we can consolidate around things are evolving the way we think they will evolve, but until we get a better sense on inflation and jobs, we will be fragile. lisa: which is why i wonder about the complacency in markets. do you think this sort of narrative which has gained increasing clout on wall street has gotten ahead of itself? marvin: it i

i met with the minister of finance of malaysia today, and every time we talked -- plus, he's a liverpool fan, and he circled back to their commodity mix. let's go to the heart of it. it is 443,000 miles from sydney to perth. tell me about the commodity variable for china as they come out of lockdown. how do you analyze that? damian: it is getting increasingly difficult. what china has been doing, p7 provides real-time tracking data out of china. they have band that data from going out to the masses. what you're seeing in china is a lot of high-frequency data, so we don't have a lot more to go on. it just shows how bad things are on the ground, how the slowdown is hitting. for me it is how do you provide transparency in a country is basically holding it back? how do you justify to your fiduciaries making an investment where they are not giving you all the answers? that is going to be a concern for emerging-market practitioners here. tom: thank you so much. an important conversation on e.m. which i would say in the market is out of the picture except for davos, it was front and center. lis
