exported US$3.78 billion worth of chemicals and chemical based
products in 2001. Chemical goods include petrochemicals, industrial
gases, oleochemicals, soaps, detergents, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals,
inorganic chemicals, paints, agricultural chemicals and fertilizers.
The major importers of Malaysian chemicals are Singapore, Japan,
China, Hong Kong, the USA and Thailand. Given the rich palm oil and petroleum resources of the country, Malaysia's production of oleochemicals and petrochemicals is especially advanced.
