Malaysia Permanent Virtual Exhibition and Business Directory

Malaysia, one of the strongest economies in Southeast Asia, comprises two regions separated by approximately 640 miles across the South China Sea.

The peninsula of Malaysia is home to 11 states, while the northern part of the island of Borneo is home to two. Malaysia is one of the world's largest exporters of electrical goods, information and technology (ICT) products, semiconductor devices and solar panels. Proton, the automobile company, is controlled by the Malaysian government.

Malaysia’s hydrocarbon resources include liquefied natural gas and petroleum. Agricultural output includes cocoa, coconuts, fish, palm oil, rice, rubber, timber and tropical fruit. One of Southeast Asia’s most industrialized nations, Malaysian companies are active in the apparel and footwear, automotive, chemicals, electronics, electronic products, food and beverage, and metal and machine products industries. The country’s key export markets are Singapore, China, the USA and Japan.

Malaysia’s banks are conservatively managed and well-capitalized. Malaysia has little external debt and maintains high levels of foreign exchange reserves. The Malaysian government manages the country’s economy, with state-owned enterprises in almost every sector. The country’s New Economic Model reform program (NEM) is designed to divest state enterprises while expanding the private sector. The NEM should foster long-term sustained economic growth, development and investment.
