More about Malaysia

Business

Malaysia has experienced rapid economic development for decades. Based on economic policy measures taken at the end of the 1990s (targeted qualitative promotion of foreign investments, dismantling of trade tariffs, privatization of state-owned companies), the emerging country developed from an agricultural raw material supplier in the 1970s into a diversified industrial location and one of the world’s leading electronics exporters. The export-oriented market economy is controlled via five-year plans and the establishment of regional »development corridors«. The 10th Malaysia Plan (2011–16) focused on expanding the knowledge society and strengthening the service sector. The 11th Malaysia Plan (2016-20) aims to increase the prosperity of the population.

Services contribute (2016) 55.7% to the gross domestic product (GDP), the industrial sector 35.7% and agriculture 8.6%. Only around 15% of the state revenues (2016) (around 40% in 2009) come from the state-owned oil and gas company PETRONAS. The gross national income (GNI) per resident was (2017) US $ 9,650. The economic growth is (2016) 4.2%, the unemployment rate 3.0%.

Foreign trade: Malaysia is strongly export-oriented and is committed to dismantling trade barriers. Free trade agreements exist with Japan, Pakistan, New Zealand, India, Chile, Australia and Turkey. Malaysia has mostly had a balanced trade balance in recent years (import value in 2016: US $ 168.4 billion, export value: US $ 189.4 billion). In terms of export goods, electronic goods (36.6%), crude oil, natural gas, chemical products and electrical engineering dominate. The most important trading partners are China, Singapore, the USA, Japan and Thailand.

Agriculture

Around a quarter of the total area is used for agriculture. The vast majority of the cultivated area is reserved for export crops. Malaysia is one of the world’s leading countries in rubber, palm oil and pepper production ; Coconut palm, cocoa and pineapple crops are also export-oriented. The domestic demand for food cannot be fully met in the country, inter alia. rice is introduced.

Forestry: In order to protect the endangered forests in their existence, the forestry use was restricted and the export of wood drastically reduced. There is an export ban for 16 tropical wood species.

Fisheries: Malaysia is an important fishing nation with its deep sea fishing and freshwater farming. Of the 2.6 million t of catches (2015), 546 600 t are aquaculture. However, shrimp farms in coastal areas are displacing ecologically important mangrove forests.

Service sector

The share of the service sector in the economy as a whole is steadily increasing. In addition to wholesalers and retailers, restaurants, banks, insurance companies and others. Telecommunications and logistics are becoming increasingly important.

Tourism: Malaysia offers very different travel destinations due to its ethnic, cultural and scenic diversity (tropical rainforest, nature parks, bathing beaches). In 2015, 25.7 million foreign guests came to Malaysia, around half of them from Singapore. Malaysia is deliberately expanding its high-quality, high-quality tourism, which, in addition to natural beauties, highlights the tropical beaches, luxury resorts and theme parks.

Industry

The road network (180,900 km) is concentrated on the west coast of the Malay Peninsula. Since 1994 there has been a north-south highway from the Thai border to Johor Baharu; in the south to Singapore.
