Official statistics
Sector context
Official statistics (DOSM)
Source: Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) open data, attached to MSIC group 611. Index values use the official DOSM base year (typically 2015 = 100). Indicators refresh monthly or quarterly per dataset. Where a DOSM subsector spans multiple MSIC divisions, the same headline is shown on each — it is the subsector total, not an allocated share.
