Nov 27 (Reuters) - Most Southeast Asian stock markets fell

on Tuesday after U.S. President Donald Trump said he expects to

move ahead with raising tariffs on Chinese imports, damaging

expectations of a thaw in trade tensions.

Malaysian and Philippine shares fell the most, tracking

subdued risk appetite across Asia, as Trump told the Wall Street

Journal he would likely raise tariffs on $200 billion in Chinese

imports to 25 percent from the current 10 percent.

The U.S. president added that if talks with his Chinese

counterpart Xi Jinping at the sidelines of the G20 summit in

Argentina this week were unsuccessful, the United States would

impose tariffs on all remaining imports from China.

"This (Trump's remarks) has sent a cautious mood to the

market as a grim reminder that hurdle remains high in the

forthcoming Trump-Xi trade talk," Huani Zhu, an economist at

Mizuho Bank, said in a report.

The Malaysian benchmark slid 0.8 percent, with a 13

percent plunge in shares of Genting Malaysia Bhd after

the resort operator filed a lawsuit against Walt Disney Co

and Twenty-First century Fox Inc.

Genting Malaysia's parent Genting Bhd fell 5.7

percent.

Meanwhile, a slide in real estate and consumer staples

shares pushed the Philippine index 0.5 percent lower.

Ayala Land Inc and Universal Robina Corp fell

1.9 percent and 3 percent, respectively.

Shares in Singapore fell 0.2 percent and looked set

to snap four days of gains, pulled lower by the utilities

sector. Hutchison Port Holdings Trust and SATS Ltd

dipped about 2 percent each.

Thai stocks edged 0.1 percent higher, ahead of the

release of factory data later on Tuesday. A Reuters poll of nine

economists predict the manufacturing production index to rise

2.8 percent in October from a year earlier.

Also higher were Vietnam stocks which rose 0.7

percent, with real estate and consumer staple stocks boosting

the index.

Indonesian stocks fell 0.2 percent.
