Malaysia to increase efforts to address semiconductor backlog orders


Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association (MSIA) president Datuk Seri Wong Siew Hai (pic) said as Malaysia plays a significant role in the global semiconductor supply chain, it is critical to expand the sector’s capacity in light of the severe global shortage of ICs.
