Malaysian Economy

The Malaysian economy has made an enormous leap since 1957.  The transformation of the country's economy from one based on primary commodities like tin, rubber and palm oil to a dynamic and vibrant industrializing nation is attributed to a variety of pull factors.  Malaysia's political and economic stability, prudent and pragmatic investor friendly business policies, cost productive workforce, developed infrastructure comparable to that of any western country and a host of other amenities make this country an enticing place for investors.

Multinational corporations from more than 40 countries have invested in over 5,000 companies in Malaysia's manufacturing and related services sectors, encouraged by the country's pro-business environment.  Malaysia today is one of the world's top locations for offshore manufacturing and service based operations.

The New Economic Model (NEM) to be achieved through an Economic Transformation Program (ETP). The ETP will be driven by eight Strategic Reforms Initiatives (SRIs) which will form the basis of the relevant policy measures.  Three other pillars have been launched over the past year.

Malaysia has achieved 14 continuous years of trade surplus.  Their total trade in 2011 reached RM 1.269 trillion, an increase of 8.7% compared to 2010, the highest total trade ever recorded.  Exports showed a positive growth with an increase of 8.7% to RM 694.55 billion for the year 2011 and imports rose by 8.6% to RM 574.23 billion.

International trade, especially seaborne trade, has traditionally been the lifeblood of Malaysia. Today, more than 90% of the country's trade is by sea via Malaysia's seven international ports namely Penang Port, Port Klang, Johor Port, Port of Tanjung Pelepas, Kuantan Port, Kemanan Port in Peninsular Malaysia and Bintulu Port in Sarawak.  In tandem with the expansion of the economy and trade, ports in the country registered impressive growth in recent years.  Two of the ports, Port Klang and the Port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP), are ranked among the top 20 container ports in the world.

SECTION 3 - IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS

Emergency Overview:

- Cholinesterase inhibitor.

- Harmful if swallowed.

- Harmful if absorbed through skin or inhaled.

- Causes slight eye irritation.

- Avoid breathing product vapors or spray mist.

- Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing.

- Keep out of reach of children.

Symptoms of over exposure are headaches, nausea, vomiting, cramps, weakness, blurred

vision, pin point pupils, tightness in chest, labored breathing, nervousness, sweating, watering

of eyes, drooling, muscle spasms and coma.

Potential Health Hazards:

EYE CONTACT: May cause eye injury.

SKIN CONTACT: Irritation may occur. The most likely rout of entry.

INGESTION: Contact a physician if material is ingested.

INHALATION: Contact a physician if material is inhaled and breathing is difficult.

Signs and symptoms of short-term (acute) exposure:

INHALATION: Malathion is a cholinesterase inhibitor of low mammalian toxicity. However

storage at too high temperatures may induce formation of the much more toxic and synergistic

contaminant isomalathion. Malathion and isomalathion can affect you when breathed in and

can cause organophosphorous poisoning. Symptoms of poisoning may include headache,

nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, tightness in chest, drooling, frothing of mouth and nose,

convulsions, coma and death.

SKIN CONTACT: Direct skin contact may causes irritation. Malathion and isomalathion can

be rapidly absorbed through all skin surfaces. Causes symptoms similar to those listed for

inhalation.

EYE CONTACT: Direct eye contact causes irritation. Malathion and isomalathion can be

rapidly absorbed through all skin and eye surfaces. Causes symptoms similar to those listed for

inhalation.

INGESTION: Malathion and isomalathion are poisons through ingestion. Causes symptoms

similar to those listed for inhalation.

Effects of long-term (chronic) exposure: Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause

behavioural changes. Carcinogcnicity: See TOX1COLOGICAL INFORMATION.

SECTION 4- FIRST AID MEASURES

INHALATION: Immediately remove victim to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, begin

artificial respiration immediately. Transport to a clinic or hospital immediately.

SKIN: Immediately flush skin with running water for at least 15 minutes, while removing

contaminated clothing and shoes. Obtain medical attention immediately. Thoroughly clean

contaminated clothing before re-use.

EYES: Immediately flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention

immediately.

INGESTION: If ingested, have victims drunk 6 to 8 ounces of water. Induce vomiting

immediately only under the direct supervision of qualified medical personnel. Never give

anything by mouth if victim is unconscious or convulsing. Transport to a clinic or hospital

immediately.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Malathion is a cholinesterase inhibitor affecting the central and

peripheral nervous systems and producing respiratory and cardiac depression. Decontamination

procedures such as whole body washing, gastric lavage and administration of activated charcoal

are often required. If symptoms are present, administer atropine sulphate in large doses. Two to

four mg intravenously or intramuscularly as soon as possible. Repeat at 5 to 10 minute’s

intervals until signs of atropinization appear and maintain full atropinization until all

organophosphorous is metabolised. Obidoxime chloride (Toxogonin), alternatively pralidoxime

chloride (2-PAM), is a pharmacological antidote and may be administered as an adjunct to, but

not a substitute for atropine, which is a symptomatic and often life-saving antidote. At first sign

of pulmonary edema, the patient should be given supplemental oxygen and treated

symptomatically. Continued absorption of Malathion may occur and relapse may occiu" after

initial improvement. VERY CLOSE SUPERVISION OF THE PATIENT IS INDICATED FOR

AT LEAST 48 HOURS.

SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

FLASHPOINT: 163 oC (Pensky-Martens closed cup)

FLAMMABLE LIMITS: lower -1, upper -7

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD: Alert medical personnel to be ready to treat for

pesticide poisoning, should treatment be necessary

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry chemical or carbon dioxide for small fires. Water spray or

foam for large fires.

Special fire fighting procedure: wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full fire fighting

clothing. Use as little water as possible. Dike area to prevent pesticide runoff. Use spray or fog.

Conduct fire fighting upwind.
