Malaysia's Industrial Production Index (IPI) contracted 2.2 percent year on year in November last year, official data showed Monday.
The deterioration of IPI in November 2020 was due to the falls in the mining and electricity index, which decreased by 15.4 percent and 2.5 percent, respectively.
The manufacturing index, however, continues to grow 2 percent.
The major sub-sectors contributing to the growth in the manufacturing sector in November 2020 were electrical and electronics products; transport equipment and other manufactures; and petroleum, chemical, rubber and plastic products.
