MALAYSIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Malaysia, an upper middle-income country, has transformed itself since the 1970s from a producer of raw materials into a multi-sector economy. Under current Prime Minister NAJIB, Malaysia is attempting to achieve high-income status by 2020 and to move further up the value-added production chain by attracting investments in high technology, knowledge-based industries and services. NAJIB's Economic Transformation Program 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. Malaysia is vulnerable to a fall in world commodity prices or a general slowdown in global economic activity.

The NAJIB administration is continuing efforts to boost domestic demand and reduce the economy's dependence on exports. Domestic demand continues to anchor economic growth, supported mainly by private consumption, which accounts for 53% of GDP. Nevertheless, exports - particularly of electronics, oil and gas, and palm oil - remain a significant driver of the economy. In 2015, gross exports of goods and services were equivalent to 73% of GDP. The oil and gas sector supplied about 22% of government revenue in 2015, down significantly from prior years amid a decline in commodity prices and diversification of government revenues. Malaysia has embarked on a fiscal reform program aimed at achieving a balanced budget by 2020, including rationalization of subsidies and the 2015 introduction of a 6% value added tax. Sustained low commodity prices throughout the period not only strained government finances, but also shrunk Malaysia’s current account surplus and weighed heavily on the Malaysian ringgit, which was among the region’s worst performing currencies during 2013-17. The ringgit hit new lows following the US presidential election amid a broader selloff of emerging market assets.

Bank Negara Malaysia (the central bank) maintains adequate foreign exchange reserves; a well-developed regulatory regime has limited Malaysia's exposure to riskier financial instruments, although it remains vulnerable to volatile global capital flows. In order to increase Malaysia’s competitiveness, Prime Minister NAJIB 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, policies that favor and advance the economic condition of ethnic Malays.

Malaysia signed the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) free trade agreement in February 2016, although the future of the TPP remains unclear following the US withdrawal from the agreement. Along with nine other ASEAN members, Malaysia established the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015, which aims to advance regional economic integration.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

20119 : Manufacture of other basic chemicals n.e.c.

INDUSTRY :

MANUFACTURING

The manufacturing sector is forecast to increase 5.3% in year 2018 (2017: 5.5%). Output of export-oriented industries is projected to expand on account of sustained demand for E&E, refined petroleum and woods products. Growth in the domestic-oriented industries is anticipated to remain resilient supported by ongoing construction of infrastructure projects as well as strong demand for consumer products, especially food and transport equipment.

Value added of the manufacturing sector expanded further by 5.8% during the first half of 2017 (January – June 2016: 4.4%) with expansion across a wide range of outputs in both the export- and domestic-oriented industries. During the first eight months, production increased 6.4%, while sales rebounded significantly by 15.6% to RM500.2 billion (January – August 2016: 4%; -0.7%; RM432.8 billion). Output of export-oriented industries rose 6.5% (January – August 2016: 4.3%) led by an upturn in global electronics cycle and further enhanced by strong demand for resource-based products. Meanwhile, domestic-oriented industries expanded 6.2% (January – August 2016: 3.4%) benefiting from vibrant consumption and construction activities.

Within the export-oriented industries, E&E output expanded 9.3% while sales surged 16.3% to RM169.5 billion (January – August 2016: 6.8%; 9%; RM145.8 billion). Growth emanated mainly from the expansion in output of printed circuit boards, semiconductor devices and electronic integrated circuits which strengthened further by 24.4%, 11.9% and 16.9% (January – August 2016: 11.9%; 5.9%; 15%), respectively. This is in line with the trend in global semiconductor sales which is expected to expand 11.5% in 2017, the highest level since 2010. On the contrary, the output of computers and peripheral equipment contracted 7.7% (January – August 2016: 3.1%) as a result of lower demand for notebooks and personal computers following rising preferences for smartphones and tablets. Meanwhile, consumer electronics grew at a moderate pace of 2.6% (January – August 2016: 5.3%) partly due to lower demand for in-car entertainment, portable media players and digital cameras.

Output of wood and wood products grew 7.3% (January – August 2016: 7.8%). The growth was primarily supported by output of sawmilling and planning of wood which expanded 14.7% (January – August 2016: 16.8%) in response to strong demand from Australia, Japan and the US. Meanwhile, production of wooden and cane furniture remained steady at 10.9% (January – August 2016: 10.9%), benefiting from greater adoption of technology and diversification of export markets.

Manufacture of food products rose 11.2%, largely attributed to a significant increase in refined palm oil at 26.1% (January – August 2016: 6.3%; -3.3%), following higher production of CPO. Meanwhile, output of other food products grew 7% supported by production of bread, cakes and other bakery (15.6%) as well as biscuits and cookies (12%) to meet the rising demand from households (January – August 2016: 11.1%; 19.2%; 19.1%).

For the year, the manufacturing sector is projected to expand further by 5.5% (2016: 4.4%) mainly attributed to an upturn in global semiconductor sales as well as higher demand for consumer products and construction materials.
