By all measures, the economy of Malaysia is transforming itself into one of leading ones in southeast Asia. Malaysia's exports in energy products has helped it to obtain capital to create more hi tech industries. It has a good food supply and its primary basis in services and commodity exports helps to fuel the economy. It appears to become a major economic leader in this part of the world.
