Electronic Components
Electronic components are essential elements embedded in all electrical and electronic devices such as in the consumer electronics, industrial electronics and electrical appliances. This is reflected in its investment performance whereby the sub-sector contributed the lion’s share of investment in the electrical and electronics (E&E) industry at 54% (in 2019) and were primarily driven by foreign investment.
This sub-sector provides vital growth to the E&E industry due to the wide range of products it covers from semiconductor devices such as wafers integrated circuits (IC) and IC design and packaging activities to passive components such as capacitors, resistors, connectors, inductors, crystal quartz and oscillators. It also covers components such as storage media, disk drive parts, printed circuit boards (PCB), LED substrates and epitaxy, microcontrollers and other metal and plastic parts for E&E applications.

Semiconductor Ecosystem
The semiconductor industry is one of the major contributors to the manufacturing activities in Malaysia. The ecosystem has a higher presence of multinational companies (MNCs) compared to Malaysian companies. The strength and capabilities of local industry players are dense in the downstream of the semiconductor value chain and encompasses assembly (advanced packaging) and test, as well as system integration.
We welcome more investments in the upstream and downstream semiconductor ecosystem activities involving IC design, engineering services and solution to support wafer fabrication as well as the presence of strong and advance IC packaging industries in Malaysia:
a) Design IC / system
b) Wafer Fabrication/ Front End Activities
c) IC Packaging/ Back End Activities & Engineering Services Solution.

Companies
The presence of MNCs in Malaysia has brought the latest technological innovations and creation of skilled jobs. This has nurtured the local supply chain over the years and provided opportunities for Malaysia to be linked to the global value chain. The optimisation of local supply chains or vendors has also pushed Malaysia to be competitive and penetrate the global market.
