Business & Investment Opportunities in Malaysia and ASEAN for French Companies

25 October 2018

Malaysian delegation will be in Lyon, Toulouse. Paris and Lille and we are pleased to invite you for a talk on investment prospects in Malaysia, specifically within the Iskandar Region in the state of Johor.

Malaysia has been built on a foundation of orderly systems and institutions that promote a business-friendly environment, resulting in strongly anchored economic fundamentals. It is one of the most diversified economies in the world providing the right balance to the economy as the gateway to ASEAN, which has an GDP size of USD2.55 trillion and 634 million population.

Malaysia’s economy rests on the production and export of manufactured products and performing services industry that will allow it to be, besides a strong market potential, an excellent option for companies seeking to set a first step into ASEAN and Asia. Analysts are anticipating for the coming years a dynamic growth close to 5% per year.

France is an important trading partners and source of investments for Malaysia. It has had a long presence in the country’s manufacturing and services sector. As Malaysia is moving towards strategic diversification to increase competitiveness, particularly in high-value products and high-end services, there is much scope for expansion for French companies. Given their innovative capabilities, we welcome investments in areas such as Transport Equipment (Aerospace), ICT, Pharmaceutical, Scientific & Measuring Equipment, Electronics & Electrical Products, Food, Chemical & Chemical Products, Machinery & Equipment.

This talk is aimed for those who wish to expand their business in ASEAN with Malaysia as their main platform, representative from Johor State Government and Johor State Investment Centre will be there to answer all your queries. Don’t miss this opportunity to understand better your investment opportunity in Malaysia.
