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.

46202 : Wholesale of palm oil

INDUSTRY :

PALM OIL

According to the Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC), Malaysia currently accounts for 39% of world palm oil production and 44% of world exports in year 2014. Malaysia is also one of the biggest producers and exporters of oil palm and palm oil products. In the last 5 years until year 2014, Malaysia earned between RM50 billion and RM70 billion a year from palm oil exports.

Besides, the ongoing implementation of Entry Point Projects (EPPs) under the National Key Economic Area (NKEA) on palm oil to enhance productivity of upstream and downstream activities will further boost the palm oil sector. Thus, palm oil sector is expected to grow 6.7% in 2014 (2013: 2.6%). Moreover, the total oil palm planted areas increased 2.8% to 5.3 million hectares as at end-June 2014 (end-June 2013: 5.2 million hectares) following the opening of 30,544 hectares of cultivated areas mainly in Sabah and Sarawak. Other than that, the production of palm oil is expected to growth by 1.6% (19.52 million tonnes) in year 2014, compared to 19.22 million tonnes in year 2013.

According to Kenanga Research, the estimated average crude palm oil (CPO) price for 2014 and 2015 is between RM2,100 and RM2,500 per tonne due to lower inventory estimate by end-2015. The estimated prices also lifted by factors such as biofuel demand and petroleum price level. But, the average price of crude palm oil (CPO) strengthened to RM2,542 per tonne during the first eight months of 2014 (January - August 2013: Rm2,309 per tonne). However, with production rising in the second quarter coupled with high inventory level (end-August 2014: 2.1 million tonnes), the price of CPO moderated to RM2,162 per tonne as at end-August 2014, and hitting a five-year low of RM1,914 per tonne in Sept 2014 as stockpiles surged to a more than 1 year high above 2 million tonnes. The moderation in CPO prices was also due to a surge in global supplies of edible oil, particularly the bumper harvest of soybean in the US.

Over the total exports of major products in year 2013, palm oil accounts 6.4% of share in the total exports. During the first seven months of 2014, export receipts of palm oil rebounded by 4.9% to RM25.8 billion (January - July 2013: -21.9%, RM 24.6 billion) due to higher export prices averaging RM 2,703 per tonne (January - July 2013: Rm 2,456 per tonne). As a measure to reduce the high inventory due to strong output, the Government has exempted export tax on CPO until December 2014. The Government's move to extend the export duty exemption for crude palm oil (CPO) has received positive reaction from industry players. The chairman of Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) said the move provided a stable effect on the CPO market prices.

In Budget 2015, there is an allocation of RM41 million for smallholders to plant and replant oil palm. The incentives for commodities announced in Budget 2015 will help alleviate the problems faced by the industry, especially the poor prices for rubber and palm oil.

According to the Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities, the Malaysian government will increase the amount of palm oil based bio-diesel in the national diesel supply mix from November 2014, in a move that will also help to increase consumption of crude palm oil (CPO) and reduce stockpile levels of the commodity. The implementation of the B7 blend will also increase the use palm oil which prices have softened due to oversupply in the market. According to the Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC), CPO prices are expected to improve to between RM2,100 and RM2,500 in year 2015, lifted by factors such as biofuel demand from the B7 programme. CIMB Research estimates that the rollout could raise the country's palm oil demand by 263,000-390,000 tonnes per annum, or 1-2% of the total palm oil production in 2013.
