What happened, for context

Wong Siew Hai, president of the Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association and former Intel executive, raised his forecast for Malaysia's 2026 electrical and electronics exports to more than RM900 billion (US$223 billion), citing strong demand driven by the global artificial-intelligence boom. The forecast increase reflects momentum in the first seven months of 2026, when tech exports jumped 44% to RM564 billion.
