Malaysia country watch

Exposure to Malaysia means watching Bank Negara and the ringgit, Putrajaya's subsidy, data-centre and export-control decisions, the ports of Port Klang, Tanjung Pelepas and Penang, floods and haze, and the semiconductor, palm oil, oil and gas, banking and electronics groups that make it a Southeast Asian manufacturing hub. We read The Edge, The Star, the New Straits Times, Malaysiakini and Bernama every morning.
