    Malaysia markets to close on Friday ahead of general election

    KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - 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.
