This report is the first in a series of reports on international trade and trade policy. This report contains three chapters:
- Chapter 1: Measuring International Trade
- Chapter 2: Trade and Food Policy
- Chapter 3: Trade and Regional Integration
Why are international trade and trade policy important?
International trade and trade policy are important because they are enablers, integrating the effects of globalisation into the domestic economy, and consequently, affecting our daily lives.
Future work
This is the first report in the Khazanah Research Institute’s (KRI’s) publication series on international trade and trade policy, one of the key areas in the New Economy for Malaysia (NEM) work track. This publication series generally seeks to highlight and discuss the linkages between trade policies and other domestic policies. Apart from work on this publication series, we aim to analyse Malaysia’s trade in value added (TiVA) and expand the discussion of the chapters of this report.
The data presented in this report is current as of 31 October 2015.
