In October 2025, Malaysia's Consumer Price Index (CPI) saw a modest decline, marking a year-over-year increase of 1.3%, as per the latest data updated on November 21, 2025. This is a slight reduction from the previous month's year-over-year increase of 1.5% in September 2025.

The slowing inflation indicates a decrease in the rate at which consumer prices are rising, compared to the previous month. These figures highlight a slight easing in the economic pressures faced by Malaysian consumers in October of this year compared to October 2024.

Analysts are closely monitoring how these changes in CPI could influence Malaysia's broader economic strategies and policies, particularly in sectors where consumer spending is a critical driver. With these figures in sight, stakeholders are evaluating the potential impacts on cost of living and purchasing power moving forward into the coming months.
