Malaysia Richest Natural
Resources : Malaysia is rich in natural
resources and its traditional economic strength lay in commodities. It
is still an important source of tin and rubber, produce.Attractive as this may
be, natural resource-rich states often struggle to
diversify.
RENEWABLE NATURAL RESOURCES:
Palm oil:
Palm oil may
not sound like a very important natural resource, but it is the primary cooking
oil used in Asia. And Malaysia is the largest exporter of palm oil in the
world. Plus, clever Malaysian scientists are developing efficient ways of
converting palm oil into ethanol. Boustead Holdings (2711.KL) operates 286,000
acres of palm oil trees.
Rubber:
Many times
about the booming automobile sales in China. So you need to ask who provides
all those tires for all those new cars? Instead of investing in tire companies,
like Goodyear or Cooper Tire, you could invest in companies that produce
rubber. Malaysia is the third largest rubber producer in the world (Thailand is
number one and Indonesia is number two) and Kossan Rubber Industries (7153.KL)
has the wind at its back.
Timber:
Thanks to its
tropical climate and abundant rainfall, Malaysia is COVERED with trees. A lot
of those trees — teak, sandalwood, ebony, and ironwood — can be turned into
valuable lumber products. Jaya Tiasa Holdings (4383.KL) is one of Malaysia’s
top timber producers.
NON-RENEWABLE NATURAL RESOURCES:
Oil:
Malaysia is blessed with massive deposits of oil and is one of the largest
non-OPEC oil exporters in the world. Malaysia’s state-owned energy giant,
Petronas Gas Berhad (6033.KL), is so profitable that its royalties provided 44%
of the government’s total revenues last year..
Of the six
basic principal base metals — tin, copper, iron, lead, zinc, and lead — tin
increased the most last year rising by 59% to as much as $27,500 per metric
ton. It is expected to hit $40,000 on growing demand within the next five
years. And Malaysian Smelting Group (5916.KL), the largest tin producer in
Malaysia, could be a big winner.
However, we know
that many of you will ignore these five Malaysian companies because they’re
listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange. I don’t know why but most investors
I talk to seem to have a phobia about buying stocks on a non-U.S. exchange. I
think that’s shortsighted …
It only costs a few dollars more (no more than $20 or $30 per
trade if you use the right broker) to trade foreign stocks. Plus it’s simple
and easy. Here are some examples:
