Rising exports since the economic recovery in 2021 and investment opportunities leading to freight demand
- Malaysia's push for clean energy is evident in its infrastructure development, as local firms spearhead advancements in technologies like rooftop and floating solar, battery storage, and hydrogen. In a notable move, in May 2022, Masama Sdn Bhd awarded Sarawak Consolidated Industries Bhd (SCIB) a RM 38 million (USD 8.61 million) contract for engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning. The project, connecting Baleh Bridge, RH Belaja, Ng Benin, SK Ng Pelagus, and Pelagus Resort in Kapit, Sarawak, was successfully completed in March 2023.
- Malaysia's cross-border e-commerce is robust, accounting for 40% of all such transactions. Malaysians are drawn to international brands primarily due to better prices (72%) and access to exclusive products (49%). China, Singapore, the United States, and Japan dominate the top cross-border sales destinations. Notably, the Malaysian cross-border e-commerce market's share is on par with domestic e-commerce, further fueling demand for transportation services.
- According to the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), the maritime and shipbuilding and ship repairing (SBSR) industries had the highest value of exports to the United States, followed by Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates. Moreover, in April 2023, the Malaysian government announced its plan to construct a port for RM 28 billion (USD 6.34 billion), scheduled to be completed by 2060. This initiative aims to enhance the handling capacity for both container and conventional cargo at Port Klang to 36 million TEUs in 2060 from 13.2 million TEUs in 2022.
Malaysia Freight And Logistics Market Trends
Malaysia's transportation and storage sector experienced 33% YoY growth in 2022, despite USD 7.25 million FDI deficit
- The transportation sector in Malaysia is integral to the nation's socio-economic progress. Transportation and storage in Malaysia experienced significant growth, jumping from 2.9% YoY in 2021 to a remarkable 33% YoY in 2022. This surge was driven by rising demand for road transportation, mainly from the manufacturing sector, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies, and automotive players, as major companies in Malaysia expanded their production capacities. In 2022, the transportation and storage, there was a deficit of about MYR 32 million (USD 7.25 million) in net foreign direct investment inflows into the transportation and storage sectors in Malaysia.
- The Malaysian government intends to transform its logistics services by centralizing the planning and development of its logistics hub, accelerating digital adoption, and encouraging industry mergers and acquisitions. Moreover, the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA) has approved more than 19 projects under the cold chain investment incentive scheme throughout the years.
- The MRT3 is the last critical route to complete the Kuala Lumpur urban rail network; the line is 50.8 km long and runs around Kuala Lumpur's outskirts. Its construction began in early 2023 and is slated for full completion by 2030, while operations for the first phase are anticipated to commence in 2028. Through East Coast Rail Link (ECRL), a double-track railway linking infrastructure project, which includes 20 stations, began in 2017, with 14 passenger stations, five combined passenger and freight stations, and one freight station.
To meet the demand for refined petroleum products, Petronas invested USD 20 billion in the 'RAPID' project in Malaysia
- In Malaysia, a liter of diesel cost USD 0.49 in the second week of August 2021, while super unleaded petrol cost USD 0.48. In 2021, the GOM spent MYR 4.30 billion (USD 0.97 billion) and MYR 2.9 billion (USD 0.65 billion) on gasoline and diesel subsidies. The GOM introduced the biodiesel mandate to reduce the impact of high petroleum prices and subsidy spending.
- Petrol and diesel prices are subsidized in the country, with MYR 95 fixed at USD 0.46 and diesel at USD 0.47, while the price of MYR 97 is floating at USD 0.76 a liter. The Brent Crude Oil contract for May 2022 delivery was trading at USD 128 (MYR 536.32) a barrel, with prices of commodities rallying on bullish demand-supply fundamentals in the past few months and further. Refined petroleum products, which accounted for 12.7% of total exports, expanded by MYR 10.7 billion (USD 2.42 billion) to MYR 18.6 billion (USD 4.21 billion) in line with the increase in average export volume (+45.1%) boosted by the Russia-Ukraine War. Rising energy prices will reinforce the growth slowdowns in developed economies, pressuring Asian export growth in 2022.
- As part of Malaysia's goal to construct the oil refining and storage hub to meet the domestic demand for refined petroleum products, Petronas in 2022 invested about USD 20 billion in the Refining and Petrochemicals Integrated Development Project (RAPID) in Johor. At the same time, an investment of nearly USD 11 billion was made for associated facilities. The project has a nameplate capacity of 279,000 bpd. The RAPID facility will be the country's first refinery to produce diesel and gasoline that meet the Euro V standard, which lowers carbon dioxide emission levels.

- Malaysia's push for clean energy is evident in its infrastructure development, as local firms spearhead advancements in technologies like rooftop and floating solar, battery storage, and hydrogen. In a notable move, in May 2022, Masama Sdn Bhd awarded Sarawak Consolidated Industries Bhd (SCIB) a RM 38 million (USD 8.61 million) contract for engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning. The project, connecting Baleh Bridge, RH Belaja, Ng Benin, SK Ng Pelagus, and Pelagus Resort in Kapit, Sarawak, was successfully completed in March 2023.
- Malaysia's cross-border e-commerce is robust, accounting for 40% of all such transactions. Malaysians are drawn to international brands primarily due to better prices (72%) and access to exclusive products (49%). China, Singapore, the United States, and Japan dominate the top cross-border sales destinations. Notably, the Malaysian cross-border e-commerce market's share is on par with domestic e-commerce, further fueling demand for transportation services.
- According to the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), the maritime and shipbuilding and ship repairing (SBSR) industries had the highest value of exports to the United States, followed by Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates. Moreover, in April 2023, the Malaysian government announced its plan to construct a port for RM 28 billion (USD 6.34 billion), scheduled to be completed by 2060. This initiative aims to enhance the handling capacity for both container and conventional cargo at Port Klang to 36 million TEUs in 2060 from 13.2 million TEUs in 2022.

Tautliner vehicle | Tautliner and curtainsider are used as generic names for curtain sided trucks/trailers. The curtains are permanently fixed to a runner at the top and detachable rails/poles at front and rear, allowing the curtains to be drawn open and forklifts used all along the sides for easy and efficient loading and unloading. When closed for travel, vertical load restraint straps are attached to a rope rail beneath the truck bed, connecting the truck bed and curtain along both sides.

This stops the curtain from flapping or drumming in the wind and can also help retain light loads from slipping sideways. |
