Strategic Capital to Enhance Malaysia’s Semiconductor Ecosystem
The initiative channels strategic capital through partnerships with funds, direct investments and joint ventures. Its aim is to strengthen Malaysia’s industrial capabilities, deepen economic complexity and expand the country’s role in higher-value segments of the semiconductor ecosystem.
Malaysia already has established strengths in assembly, testing and packaging. The next phase is to build greater participation in areas such as integrated circuit design, advanced packaging, semiconductor manufacturing equipment and materials.
Key Aspirations
Moving Up the Value Chain
Enhance Malaysia’s existing strengths in assembly, testing and packaging while increasing participation in higher-value segments such as IC design, advanced packaging, semiconductor manufacturing equipment and materials.
Strengthening the Domestic Supply Chain
Increase the participation of local companies in Malaysia’s semiconductor supply chain and enable stronger integration into regional and global ecosystems.
Enhancing Malaysian Firms and Talent
Develop local companies and talent through high-skilled employment, partnerships with global industry players and increased R&D activity in Malaysia.
