ZURICH : Swiss mining and commodities trader Glencore has reported deeper losses for the first half of 2025. The company posted a $655 million loss, compared to $233 million in the same period last year. Core earnings from its mining division dropped 17% to $5.4 billion, driven by weaker coal prices and reduced copper output. Its commodity trading arm saw an eight percent decline in pre-tax profit, falling to $1.4 billion. Despite the downturn, Glencore described the results as “an overall solid result against a macroeconomic environment that was heavily influenced by US tariff policy uncertainty and tensions in the Middle East.” - AFP

KANGAR : The Perlis State Economic Development Corporation (PKENPs) will implement a new strategy to enhance revenue and competitiveness, including expanding operations outside the state. Menteri Besar Mohd Shukri Ramli stated that the initiative follows the appointment of a new management team and draws inspiration from Johor Corporation (JCorp) and Terengganu State Economic Development Corporation (PMINT). “With this new direction, PKENPs aims to increase revenue, reduce debt and explore sustainable business sectors,” he said during the Perlis State Legislative Assembly sitting at Kompleks Seri Putra. The announcement came in response to a query from Megat Hashirat Hassan (PN–Pauh) regarding PKENPs’ plans under its new leadership. Mohd Shukri outlined PKENPs’ three- to five-year investment plan, covering commercial, special, community, and manufacturing projects. These projects will be developed in the Chuping Valley Industrial Area (CVIA), existing industrial zones in Pauh Putra, Arau, and Padang Besar, as well as a proposed new site in Kuala Perlis. “These developments will focus on four key nodes comprising Kangar, Padang Besar, Kuala Perlis and Arau, in line with the Perlis Structure Plan 2040,” he said. Additionally, PKENPs plans to construct a Women and Children’s Hospital and a postnatal care centre in Kangar, reinforcing its role as the state’s administrative hub. – Bernama

MUMBAI : India’s central bank left its key interest rate unchanged at 5.50 percent on Wednesday. The decision comes as US President Donald Trump escalates threats to raise tariffs on Indian imports. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) maintained the repurchase rate following a unanimous vote by its six-member panel. Most analysts had expected a pause after June’s unexpected 50-basis-point cut. RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra stated that global trade challenges persist but India’s economy remains resilient. “We have taken decisive and forward-looking measures to support growth,“ he said in a statement. The RBI had cut rates three times this year, including its first reduction in nearly five years in February. India anticipates above-average monsoon rains, which analysts say could boost agricultural output and rural incomes. However, Trump’s warning of “substantially” higher tariffs on Indian goods has added economic pressure. Existing US tariffs on Indian products were already set to rise from 10 percent to 25 percent this week. Malhotra acknowledged that tariff uncertainties persist despite India’s robust growth outlook. Trump’s move follows his threat of new sanctions on Russia unless progress is made in Ukraine peace talks. Though not a major exporter, India counts the US as its largest trading partner. - AFP

KUALA LUMPUR : The Housing and Local Government Ministry (KPKT) does not provide special direct allocations to all state governments for solid waste management. Only six states and two Federal Territories that adopted the Solid Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act 2007 (Act 672) receive federal funding. Under Budget 2025, RM1.54 billion has been allocated for waste management in Perlis, Kedah, Pahang, Negeri Sembilan, Melaka, Johor, Kuala Lumpur, and Putrajaya. Other states must manage waste independently through their local authorities and agencies. Deputy Minister Aiman Athirah Al-Jundi stated this in response to Mohd Nazri Abu Hassan’s query in the Dewan Rakyat. Act 672 allows the Federal government to take action against illegal dumping in participating regions. SWCorp conducted 3,036 operations against illegal dumpsites in 2024, with 2,030 more up to June this year. KPKT stressed that cleanliness efforts require collaboration among state governments, agencies, and the public. Aiman Athirah highlighted the need for collective commitment to ensure a clean and sustainable environment. – Bernama

PENAMPANG : A total of 91 residents of Kampung Togudon received their land titles today under the Native Customary Land Service Programme of Sabah (PANTAS). Penampang MP Datuk Ewon Benedick, who is also Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister, said the titles cover 157.37 hectares. The distribution marks the first phase of the initiative, with 982 hectares surveyed under PANTAS. Ewon acknowledged the long wait faced by Kg Togudon residents for land ownership. He made the issue a priority after being elected as Penampang MP. Approval from Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor allowed the land survey to begin in August last year. The Phase 1 handover ceremony was held in the village today. Ewon said this milestone ends years of uncertainty for villagers regarding land ownership. He believes it will boost economic activities, especially in agriculture and rural tourism. Kg Togudon is the first village in Penampang to undergo the PANTAS survey. The programme was initiated after Ewon became the area’s elected representative. He pledged to expand PANTAS to other villages, including Kg Moyog, Kg Rugading, and Kg Kibunut. Ewon raised the need for PANTAS to continue under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) 2026-2030. The programme has been included in the 13MP under the special Bumiputera development agenda for Sabah and Sarawak. He will seek the Chief Minister’s support to extend PANTAS in Penampang and Kadamaian. Most funding for the initiative comes from the Federal government. – Bernama
