Malaysia's financial markets will be closed on Friday for a public holiday, a day before the country holds a general election, the bourse said.
Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob this week declared Nov. 18-19 as public holidays to make it easier for Malaysians to vote, media reported.
Trading will resume on Monday, Bursa Malaysia said in a statement late Tuesday.
