How Malaysia is becoming the next global chip giant 

8:15 Not wealth "redistribution", it's affirmative action like in the US to help poorer people get the same opportunities

Malaysia has all the advantages and competitive edge (KL + Penang especially). Malaysia must welcome their local talent back and even highly skilled foreign talent.

Please make a report on India also. Love to see it.

Malaysia can produce whatever electronic products it wants, but if, Malaysia really wants to win must deliver innovative and competitively advantageous products, both in the supply chain and finished products.

Don't compare to countries that don't have manufacturing chip capabilities...Try comparing Thailand and Vietnam...They have the work force and a stable country. Malaysia work force are imported and cost money.

@@xzdrtxyzxvn I was comparing our politics with the other big countries like the USA and France, they seem to be more advanced than us but in reality, their politics is way far more corrupted.

You only assumption in the utube video that paint a overreaction to get money from utube. In actual fact it us peaceful in USA and France ..There are a lot of tourist also a lot of demonstrations.

@nemi6570 Whah happened in US and France are one group of people the same type that cause much grief in Malaysia too. This group ate not groups that generated income to countries but financially bogged the country down.

But stupid opposition is growing. They will bring down Malaysia at whatever expenses. Just like Zionists, their ammunitions are slanders & lies. All states they managed are in shambles and backward, but they still dream to lead the country.

Indonesia is trying to add value to unfinished products and reducing the exports of raw materials. But, exporting pure materials and products that are parts of finished products. Malaysia and India can be important partners while playing within ASEAN.

My curiosity, which engineers is he talking about, there are a lot of engineering areas

Why do u talk about 20 years ago. Now, fresh graduate salary is about RM2400 - Ram2800. Senior engineer can achieve RM4500 - RM8000. The expert can achieve RM10 000 - RM20 000 in Malaysia.

aye government should hand out chip war by chis miller to all secondary school students lol

Agreed, seems like they just expecting foreign tech company just invest billions dollar project with no specific reason. And they can miraculous getting a share from it. They complete neglect supply chain problem, the raw material, electricity, equipment, educated work force (engineer and IT technician), component supplier(High end industry required massive low and mid level supplier, and it is mandatory) Also both japan, SK, China, Taiwan become a tech powerhouse by invest and incubate their own tech company rather than hope some foreign company gona doing it for them. Majority of the production still from their home country. This process takes least a decade and billions dollar of investment, its painful but worth it. For any industry that is heavy-asset, don't focus too much on labor cost, because it matters little. Provide cheap land, low interest loan or even some tax cut have way bigger impact on it. Raw material price, production cost, product cycle, electricity stability are way much more important. No factory, especially high-tech industry can afford power outage in the middle of the production.

Well as a Malaysian, I can say Intel, Texas and Western Digital has factories here back in 70s -2000s. To be fair this channel is primarly focus on geopolitics and not semiconductor industry.

Thank you as Malaysian we appreciate it 🙏 let's hope BRICS will be success n break the monopoly from the west especially the big bully: America

@acerazak4087 I think it will. I am a South African with Cape Malay ancestry. I believe BRICS is the perfect fit for our two emerging economies, especially in terms of our historic ties. The West is in moral, economic and democratic decline, its time that Malaysia and SA start to rely on each other and not the western bullies that tell us who we can and can't be friends with or who is allowed to commit genocide and who is not.

@@delaneycloete5920 wow a south African with Cape Malay ancestry, I am a Malay btw. I am 💯 agreed with you. I am also proud that both our country stands up to these evil bully n working together to achieve common goal.

The West does not mock Malaysia and mostly dismisses SA as a dysfunctional state careening to failed state status. We once had hope for SA but endemic corruption, among other problems, have decimated growth. SA can't even keep the lights on 24/7 and has collapsing infrastructure and the government is doing nothing about. Foreign capital investment are leaving and will continue, as will SA's brain drain. Until SA changes its culture and government, until it reforms and rejects widespread corruption and tribal nepotism and cronyism it will never be worth investing in. Malaysia is comparatively well-educated and its geography places it at the center of global trade, something SA doesn't have. SA stands to temporarily benefit from instability in the Red Sea (Houthis, etc.) which forces most ships to go around Africa instead of Suez. AS for BRICS, it is perhaps worthy of mockery as it is more of a PR stunt than an actual cohesive entity. None of its members share common ideologies or interests and are in fact enemies (India-China) or frenemies (Russia-China), their only unifying theme is simmering resentment to real and perceived sleights from the West (which they exploit in post-colonial Africa to great effect). Brazil talks big on anti-Imperialism (mostly directed at the US--not entirely wrong) but somehow ignores Russia and China's imperialism and expansionism. None have solid and transparent banking systems and low levels of corruption and proper rule of law making everything from investments, to free trade deals, currency swaps or the ludicrous idea of shared currency difficult or impossible. India doesn't want Rubles, and Brazil has no use for Rupees, but all need USD to buy commodities on international markets. Which brings me to de-Dollarization. It's not happening anytime soon despite the rhetoric. The USD will remain the reserve currency for a long time, especially in an age of increasing instability and where Russia and China are in irreversible demographic decline and Brazil's total fertility rate is rapidly decreasing. None of the BRICS countries can rely on immigration to compensate for low birth rates because none of them are attractive to immigrants for obvious reasons. BRICS is a pipe-dream, a joke. More logical and cohesive economic and political blocs could be formed in Africa and South America.

@electrosyzygy Thank you for this comprehensive and concise reply. I'm not going to reply point by point, but I will point a few things out. Your reply serves as proof of my statement regarding being mocked by the West, although I should perhaps have put mocked in inverted commas. South Africa has just gone though a national election which saw a 30 year old government go into coalition with its main rival. There are positive things to come for the country, with even the financial markets in agreement. South Africa has a parliament of proportional representation, unlike the British democracy in which the Reform Party received 15% of the vote but only 3 seats in Parliament. SA further maintains 3 independent arms of state, unlike the US supreme court giving the president the American crown, and can also change a 30 year old government without the need for insurrection by the losing party. The French and Germans are dealing with a right wing surge, with the French almost incapable of forming a government. SA has many problems, we acknowledge this, but we thank our lucky stars that we now have a competent government which we haven't had for the last 20 years at least. We are also grateful to have enough muscle to be able to toe the line between the G20 and BRICS and not get upset when the Americans badmouth us because we don't toe their party line. We have lost all moral respect for anyone who can support a genocide. BRICS is thankfully not ideological, but it is the best way for SA and Malaysia to look after their own citizens. South Africans, ordinary and wealthy alike, are seeing the benefit of this on a daily basis, especially seeing as our masses can afford EVs from China without 100% tariff markups on them. The West has all but abandoned us, given up on us, but through our own sheer will, as well as help from others, we are on the rise for our own people.

Brunei is too dependent on oil, and there's nothing can save it, as all other industries are failed to be competitive. Thailand's manufacturing capacity has been dwindled for a long while, and the domestic companies are not strong at all. They're likely to encounter a huge crisis soon. The other three are more likely to see it though: - Malaysia is ready to be a high-income country, and they also have a strong supply chain for semiconductor at this point. They can use it as a lever to change the country. There's a problem though, their domestic companies in this sector aren't really strong, and their government is unstable and have flaws all over. But if they do it right, there is a high chance that Malaysia will become "the next world's chipmaker" - Vietnam might have a chance to take over every other countries, except Singapore though. Yes, they've just achieve the "high-middle income country" stuff, and there's a lot to do for supply chains, infrastructure and education, but they're moving in the right way. There're a lot of competitive Vietnamese enterprises which are investing heavily in high-tech and R&D, and at the same time, they're ready to expand to the world. And although the government is a bit bureaucratic, but they're stable, and they're willing to smash the bureaucratic part if that means they'll make their enterprises and the economy grow. If they keen on doing those for at least 20 - 25 years, there's no doubt that they'll become a high-tech high-income country, and at the same time, "the global high-tech manufacturing and manufacturer hub". - Indonesia... I don't know for sure. They're best at exporting raw materials, and they have a lot of issues as well. But I believe that in the future, they'll be a redoubtable competitor to Vietnam, at least. First they'll become a high-tech processor of raw materials, then if they're willing to get big, they'll change to like, a country drives by innovation that's comparable to both Vietnam and Malaysia at the same time.

As a malay in Malaysia, I heavily support this. Politicians keep using religion to win votes and most Malays keep falling for that dumb trick. In the end, corruption and incompetent leadership is what we get. Not only that as it's difficult to establish a stable and harmonious environment with the constant racism in Malaysia (illegal immigrants is another story though). Plus most Malays and bumiputeras relied heavily on their privileges just to get a decent job. I'm not saying Malaysia should be secular and liberal though Extra: For Malays, I think most of us should change our thinking when picking a career. A lot of us still look for the easy way out. For example, many SPM graduates only have bare minimum scores to get into politeknik. Why do they do this? "Lepas SPM aku kerja grab je lah", "So aku taknak study" (Translation: After SPM I wanna work as a delivery driver, so i don't need to study) We have just as much potential to become doctors as other people do yet our country has a shortage of doctors. We had to take in foreign workers for this.

@@shamshulanuar7718 Seriously Singapore NEVER wanted to be independent in the first place they were EXPELED, voted out by the parliment. Wage war to get sovereignty?? WTF? There was no brutality involved since Singapore was having a similar status like Sabah and Sarawak; The Federation of Malaysia was formed when Malaya, Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak signed the formation. Note that Brunei declined the invitation to join the Federation, for what its worth till date it was a good decision on their part. Malaysia (more like Malaya political parties at that time) main concern of Singapore at that time was their differences in political view and how to spearhead the Malaysian Federation at that time. That differences in oppinion lead to UMNO lead parties (BN - BN at that time was huge and they single handedly dominate Malaysian Federation politics at that time this include Sabah and Sarawak but not in Singapore) to vote Singapore out of the Federation.

Special mention for politicians. Most of us tolerate each other because we don't want our children to grow up in an unstable country. Of course there are issues, but it will disappear after 2-3 months. Politicians bring up issues only to stay relevant and for political mileage.

meaningless? Do you know how much foreign investment can contribute to a country economy ???

U better living in the jungle and produce ur own food...😂😂

​@@joeyh3167 South Korea and Taiwan went big in semiconductor because there have their own indegenous,local champion and investing in R&D for years. You cannot expect foreign big companies will dump their latest cutting edge technology in Malaysia, Malaysia, through it local champion, must involve in the global supply chain.

You are right we have to achieve something in this life so our children won't sofa it

well at least the rich achieved something in life before that person dies. his kids will probably inherit the fortunes and pass on to the next generation. cycle of life.

Thanks for continuing updates I'd rather trade the crypto market as it's more profitable. I make a good amount of money per week even though I barely trade myself.

Finding yourself a good broker is as same as finding a good thing, which you go less stress, you get just enough with so much little effort at things

No I don't trade on my own anymore, I always required help and assistance

All these shocks also affected other countries, not just Malaysia. The real problem in Malaysia is a lack of educated labour and brain drain. The racial policies of successive UMNO governments have entrenched a system in which ethnic Malays feel entitled to subsidized housing, school and university places irrespective of merit and guaranteed jobs - all purely based on their race. While other non-Malay (but still Malaysian citizens) groups compete on merit they see no hope in a country stuck in the middle income trap where jobs are handed out based not on merit and performance but on racial quotas. This is at the heart of the problem, and unless the Anwar administration gets real and tackles this effective apartheid Malaysia's 2030 dream will turn out to be another false dawn like 'Vision 2020', which was preceded by Najib looting billions in taxpayer funds for corrupt use and personal enrichment. Anwar needs to reverse the brain drain. To do that it needs to rectify the failed race based policies. I was speaking to a business owner from Europe a few years ago, who was looking to expand in SE Asia. I recommended Malaysia, but when he learned about the Malay job quota rules, he lost interest - corporations don't like to operate in nations where hiring is dictated by political agendas. Failed political agendas. Read Dr M's 'The Malay Dilemma' for more info.

These are all excuses. Every major economy went through that. Saw how Singapore and Korea recovered and prospered, but Malaysia? Lazy culture, takpe mindset, rasuah, racism, are all the cause of our own misfortune.

Affirmative action

How tf malaysia is centralised? Ffs we practicing federal system. In fact we are the most decentralised in Asean. Each Malaysian state sometimes act like their own country, have their own constitution and laws. This guy..

KL + Penang combined can be the regional tech hub for ASEAN and even Asia. 10% growth per year should do.

Its called a FEDERATION STATE dude !!.. Each country enjoys its freedom in land, mineral resources .. And some state has sacrificed for other state to develope. 85% of PENANG Fresh Water comes from Kedah..😂. Penang dosent hv to pay a cent to maintain the FOREST RESERVES and Loss of tax /usage.

Nah, can't do it without the permission from its master the same way the USA needs permission from them before selling arms to certain countries. Yes, it's the law.

Wrong. China has all the talent and dominance in emerging photonic semiconductors on graphene, which are 30,000 times faster and use 1-million times less energy, which will spell the end of silicon chips, like how mobile phones killed landline phones. China has the only working general-purpose photonic chip prototypes and 98% of the engineering science for it - and all the rare earths required to make it. These will be commercialized in 4 years, then game over.

Setuju, sy dah 11tahun dlm bidang semicon cip.

you think your phone can only run only with microchips? majority of non semiconductor firms that supplies non semiconductors to those firms like pcbs, wires, memories, transistor are made by malaysian firm.. we also has our own fabrication local semiconductor firms like silterra mention in the video...

​​​​@@zarith87 my man, that is not what he is saying at all. He's saying Malaysia needs to find a way domesticate the entire production chain and take a piece of the tech production pie because guess what happens to our local upstream component manufacturers once their clients run to the next cheap place? Our historical hint of what could be the result is the Japanese economic stagnation and industrial implosion of the 90s Malaysia's saving grace however will always be that the Malaysian economy is quite diversified and not reliant on one industry doing well. But the pain will be felt and stagnation will happen. Just look at the damage to china done from manufacturers moving to vietnam, thailand and indonesia because the chinese wage is now too expensive. Their government isn't being obvious about how painful it is for the country yet but from the common people it is very obvious damage was done and the world is watching how the chinese government will react.

Exactly👍

As long as we use democracy, any government have right to change it. This is why democracy is like double sides sword. You can use to attack but at the same time weak if someone push your sword against you

2023 was the largest foreign direct investment in Malayia's history. If that does tell you about the investors' confidence, I don't know what will

@@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko Are you replying to my comment or posted mistakenly? I don't see how your reply is related to my comment at all. Or are you implying that in 2023, Anwar did strike down any international deals made by previous governments?

We are producing.... Making and also packaging... Why are you not paying attention?

Underrated comment

i think youre not familiar with the semiconductor industry term of "packaging". its not just putting things in a box and then shipping it out. nowadays, they need to cut those silicon wafers, put dozens of components in one chip, connect them together, secure the components in place package them etc. those silicon wafers just dont magically turn into your computer processors. they need to be assembled, packaged and tested first. then only it is a finished product.
