Assembly/Test (OSAT), Packaging, Rare Earth Processing, Back-end Dominant
Malaysia is the world's largest semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) hub by volume, handling 13% of global chip packaging. Intel, Micron, Infineon, NXP, STMicro, and Texas Instruments all operate major assembly facilities, particularly in Penang ('Silicon Valley of the East') and Kulim. The 2011 Thai floods redirected significant assembly capacity to Malaysia. Lynas operates the world's largest rare earth separation plant (LAMP, Kuantan), processing Australian Mount Weld ore. Malaysia's back-end concentration means any disruption (flooding, power, political) has immediate global effects on packaged chip availability.
