Malaysia's November factory output growth slips to weakest in 16 months
Kuala Lumpur
MALAYSIA'S November industrial production slowed to its weakest pace in 16 months, hurt by weaker global demand and a decline in mining production.
Government data on Monday showed factory output in November grew 1.8 per cent from a year earlier, its slowest since July 2014 and well below the median forecast of 4 per cent from a Reuters poll of economists.
