F0137: Why Trump's Tariffs Will Negatively Impact Malaysia and Its Citizens (With Experts Hann and Sani)
On Apr 2, Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs on multiple nations.
Malaysia has been slapped with 24% reciprocal tariffs, which is a 50% discount versus the tariffs we “charge” to the US, according to the White House.
Trump argues that tariffs will bring back industrialization to America.
He believes that other nations have become more rich and powerful at America’s expense, and that foreign countries, whether friend or foe, have “looted,” “pillaged,” “raped,” and “plundered” the beautiful country.
The steep tariffs will encourage US consumers to buy more local-made goods and major companies to build their factories in the country (at least that’s what Trump hopes).
In this session, financial experts Hann Liew and Sani Hamid discuss the impacts of Trump’s tariffs and why it is the DUMBEST trade war in history.
