MALAYSIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Malaysia, a middle-income country, has transformed itself since the 1970s from a producer of raw materials into an emerging multi-sector economy. Under current Prime Minister NAJIB, Malaysia is attempting to achieve high-income status by 2020 and to move farther up the value-added production chain by attracting investments in Islamic finance, high technology industries, biotechnology, and services. NAJIB's Economic Transformation Program (ETP) is a series of projects and policy measures intended to accelerate the country's economic growth. The government has also taken steps to liberalize some services sub-sectors. The NAJIB administration also is continuing efforts to boost domestic demand and reduce the economy's dependence on exports. Nevertheless, exports - particularly of electronics, oil and gas, palm oil and rubber - remain a significant driver of the economy. As an oil and gas exporter, Malaysia has previously profited from higher world energy prices, although the rising cost of domestic gasoline and diesel fuel, combined with sustained budget deficits, has forced Kuala Lumpur to begin to address fiscal shortfalls, through initial reductions in energy and sugar subsidies and the announcement of the 2015 implementation of a 6% goods and services tax. Falling global oil prices in the second half of 2014 have strained government finances, shrunk Malaysia’s current account surplus and put downward pressure on the ringgit. The government is also trying to lessen its dependence on state oil producer Petronas. The oil and gas sector supplied about 29% of government revenue in 2014. Bank Negara Malaysia (central bank) maintains healthy foreign exchange reserves, and a well-developed regulatory regime has limited Malaysia's exposure to riskier financial instruments and the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, Malaysia could be vulnerable to a fall in commodity prices or a general slowdown in global economic activity because exports are a major component of GDP. In order to attract increased investment, NAJIB earlier raised possible revisions to the special economic and social preferences accorded to ethnic Malays under the New Economic Policy of 1970, but retreated in 2013 after he encountered significant opposition from Malay nationalists and other vested interests. In September 2013 NAJIB launched the new Bumiputra Economic Empowerment Program (BEEP), policies that favor and advance the economic condition of ethnic Malays. Malaysia is a member of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade agreement negotiations and, with the nine other ASEAN members, will form the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

46496 : Wholesale of electrical and electronic goods

INDUSTRY :

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC

The electrical & electronics (E&E) industry is the leading subsector in Malaysia's manufacturing sector, contributing significantly to the country's exports (32.8 %) and employment (27.2 %) in 2013. E&E products have been the largest traded items for Malaysia for several decades since the industry inception in the 1960s. The E&E industry in Malaysia is focused on strengthening the three major ecosystems of semiconductors, solar and LED technologies.

In the E&E subsector, production grew more strongly by 13.3% during the first seven months of 2014 mainly driven by electronic components, communication equipment and domestic appliances. The output of printed circuit boards and semiconductor devices rose in line with the growing demand for consumer electronics, particularly mobile devices, as well as improving global PC sales. Early in 2014, global PC sales rose on a moderating trend due to the replacement of PCs with a new operating system. Prices of PCs are also falling, narrowing the price differential with tablets. In contrast, the output of general-purpose machinery decreased 8.8% on account of the decline in manufacture of air-conditioning machine as well as lifting and handling equipment.

Malaysia being a part of the global E&E production network that stands to gain from the stronger growth in worldwide semiconductor sales. In 2015, the export-oriented industries, particularly the E&E subsector will benefit from the improvement in external conditions in line with improving global growth. The E&E subsector is expected to grow further driven by higher demand of semiconductors, electronic components, communication and computer peripherals with the upswing of global electronics demand.

Receipts from E&E products grew at an impressive 10.6% in the first seven months of 2014, rebounding from a contraction of 2.9% in the corresponding period last year. The steady improvement in the global economy, coupled with a pickup in the ICT industry led a surge of 20.1% in export of semiconductor devices. In addition, the robust demand for mid- to low-end smartphones and tablets, notably in emerging markets has driven higher shipments of telecommunication equipment and parts, which turned around with a stronger growth of 30.9% to the US, Netherlands, Singapore and Mexico.

According to Ministry of International Trade and Industry, the healthy growth in the E&E sector will help boost the country's economy. The E&E sector is important to Malaysia. Exports of manufactured goods for September 2014 rose by 2.2 % to RM49.14 billion compared with September 2013, driven by higher exports of E&E products. Hence, gross exports are expected to grow 3.2% in 2015 mainly supported by E&E.

The growth of semiconductor will continue to spearhead the growth of the E&E industry in Malaysia and has benefited from the global demand in the usage of mobile devices, storage devices, and optoelectronics (photonics, fibre optics, LEDs) and embedded technology integrated circuits, PCBs, LEDs. The E&E industry is targeted under the National Key Economic Areas (NKEA) to gear the nation towards high-income economy by focusing on high-value and high-growth manufacturing activities.
