Research house expects Indonesia to boost supply of plywood


KUCHING: Indonesia, the world’s second largest exporter of tropical plywood, is expected to boost supply of the timber product this year due to the weak rupiah.

According to CIMB Research, the 20% depreciation of the rupiah against the US dollar over the past 12 months, lowers the production cost of Indonesian plywood producers.
