Malaysian wood sector exports have increased by 20.7% in the first six months of this year compared to the same period last year, says Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin, Malaysian Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities. Wood products exports reached RM12billion (EUR 2.4 billion). 

The five main wood products that are exported include furniture (RM5.54bil), plywood (RM1.54bil), sawn timber (RM1.16bil), wood fiber (RM350mil), and wood moldings (RM520mil).

"The timber industry is very lucrative for our country. Although we are in a pandemic, we can still increase the export of these products," the minister said.
