Malaysia marine engine market grew significantly from 2017 to 2019, owing to government initiatives to revive Malaysia's shipbuilding industry after a recession in 2014-2016. Malaysia is rapidly increasing its commercial vessel capacity, as 95 percent of its trade is through sea route, which would act as a driving force in the Malaysia marine engine market. Furthermore, Malaysia has emerged as the world's second largest producer of palm oil, exporting palm oil products to China, India, the Netherlands, Pakistan, the Philippines, and other countries. As this trend continues, it is expected to boost demand for marine engines during the forecast period.
