Malaysian share prices closed 0.5 percent higher on Thursday due to late buying of blue chips ahead of the Muslim festival of Eid, dealers said. They said extended gains in plantation and mining stocks kept the key index in positive territory. Muslims make up about 60 percent of Malaysia's population of 27 million people.
The Kuala Lumpur Composite Index closed up 6.68 points to 1,383.61. Volume was lower at 1.5 billion shares valued at 1.9 billion ringgit (564 million dollars) and gainers led losers 442 to 384. At the close, the ringgit was trading at 3.3650/3670 to the dollar.
