GEORGE TOWN, Oct. 16 -- Penang is hoping for a win-win outcome in discussions with the United States over tariff rates affecting Malaysia during the upcoming Asean Summit.

Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said the state, through InvestPenang, has shared its feedback with the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (Miti).

"We are looking forward to when US President Donald Trump attends the Asean Summit in the week to come.

"We hope for a good resolution in terms of an agreement on the tariffs to be imposed on Malaysia," he said at a press conference after attending the Amcham Penang Dialogue 2025 today.

Trump is expected to attend the summit, along with other top leaders, in the last week of October in Kuala Lumpur.
