Malaysia – A Strategic FDI Solution Amid Supply Chain Risks

Recent disruptions in global semiconductor and automotive supply chains have highlighted the risks associated with concentrated production. As a result, companies are increasingly seeking resilient alternatives to ensure operational continuity and mitigate geopolitical and logistical vulnerabilities. Malaysia has emerged as a compelling strategic solution. 

With a strong semiconductor ecosystem, particularly in assembly, testing, and packaging, Malaysia offers world-class infrastructure, skilled talent, and supportive government policies that continue to attract global investors. Its automotive sector benefits directly from these capabilities, especially in electric vehicles (EVs) and advanced automotive electronics, enabling integrated and efficient local production. 

By locating production in Malaysia, firms can diversify risk, reduce reliance on any single geography, and maintain stable operations amid global uncertainties. Malaysia’s strategic location, robust industrial parks, and proven track record make it an ideal hub for multinational corporations seeking secure, high-tech, and automotive-ready manufacturing capabilities. 

In our upcoming webinar, Quinn Lu, International Business Advisor for Malaysia, and Nadhila Ismiralda, Business Intelligence ASEAN, will discuss why Malaysia is one of the top options for building more resilient supply chains. 

Topics will include: 

• Country Portrait: Malaysia from an FDI Perspective 

• Overview of Existing Infrastructure for the High-Tech, Automotive & Semiconductor Industries 

• Location Selection in Malaysia and Utilizing SEZs 

• Basics of Entering Malaysia as a Manufacturer 

• Q&A 

The webinar is in English language and free of admission. If you have any questions ahead or would prefer to have professional advice on your strategy, please send an E-Mail to our experts or get in touch with dian.putra@dezshira.com
