INDUSTRY :  ECONOMY


The Malaysian economy recorded a robust growth of 10.1% in the first quarter of 2010, the highest first quarter growth since the 11.7% recorded in 2000. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said that given the robust performance in 2010 and the government-introduced economic transformation initiatives, Malaysia would achieve its target of 6% growth in 2010. Growth in 2010 will be driven by domestic demand, particularly the private expenditure, and supported by expected recovery in external demand.


Bank Negara announced a slight increase in the interest rate to counter any spike in inflation following the high growth. The Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) was increased by 25 basis points to 2.5%. The new level of the OPR would continue to be accommodative and supportive of the economic growth. The growth of GDP in the first three months of 2010 was much higher than the 4.4% growth registered in the fourth quarter of 2009. It has spurred by strong domestic demand and global economic recovery.


On the supply side, all major sectors recorded robust growth, particularly the manufacturing sector which grew by 16.9% compared to the 5.0% in the last quarter of 2009. Growth in this sector was driven by the electric and electronics (25.9%), transport equipment (25.3%) as well as wood products and furniture (18.7%) sub-sectors.


The services sector also registered a strong performance at 8.5% in the first quarter of 2010 compared to 5.2% in the first quarter of 2009. This was because of strong growth in the utilities (16.6%), real estate and business services (14.2%), wholesale and retail (9.6%) and the transport and storage (9.2%) sub-sectors.


The construction sector continued to expand with a 8.5% growth while the mining sector also seemed to have turned around to record a 5.2% growth. The agriculture sector also expanded by 6.8% mainly due to higher production of rubber, livestock and timber.


On the demand side, growth during the first quarter of 2010 was underpinned by strong domestic expenditure stemming from sustained expansion in private and public consumption of 5.1% and 6.3% respectively. Investments grew strongly at 5.4%, reflecting a recovery in investor confidence.


The external sector registered a sterling performance with a 19.3% increase in total exports, amidst recovery in the global economy and trade. Total imports expanded by 27.5% on account of higher imports of intermediate (37.9%), consumption (18.5%) and capital goods (9.6%), pointing to a more robust domestic economic activities. Government is committed to ensuring economic recovery and transformation is on the right track.
