Method & notes
IN BRIEF

GDP measures production inside Malaysia; GNI adjusts that picture for net factor income flows with the rest of the world.

METHOD & LIMITATIONS

Real GDP and GNI in constant 2015 prices.

PulseKita uses DOSM's annual real GDP and GNI rows where series='abs'. Values are already published in RM million at constant 2015 prices.

  • Real values remove general price-level effects using DOSM's constant-price methodology.
  • Recent annual estimates may be revised in future DOSM releases.
