The investment, trade and industry minister says disruptions to logistics are already being seen.

PETALING JAYA: The US-Israeli attacks on Iran have already affected trade supply routes, and further disruptions are inevitable, says investment, trade and industry minister Johari Ghani.

“Ships are unable to enter certain areas. Yesterday, several aircraft had to turn back and others were unable to depart,” the New Straits Times quoted him as saying in Kuala Lumpur today.

Johari said prolonged conflict could weigh further on economic activity. He said his ministry is also evaluating the possible implications on foreign investment.
