Employment in Malaysia increased by as much as 2.1 percent in 2017, on a year-on-year basis. This was possible after the improvement of the labor market conditions.

In a recent statement, the President of the American Malaysian Chamber of Commerce highlighted the fact that Malaysia remains an inviting investment destination for US companies. The advantages are related both to the business ecosystem in Malaysia but also the cultural diversity and expansion that is possible in Kuala Lumpur, especially for United States companies.
