Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is pushing for more Malaysian-made products to be available on Daiso shelves across the globe, following the opening of the retailer's largest global distribution centre in Pulau Indah. Anwar believes this move will create opportunities for Malaysian manufacturers and suppliers to expand internationally, aligning with the country's New Industrial Master Plan 2030.
The centre's completion ahead of schedule and below budget highlights Malaysia's economic stability and infrastructure potential, according to Anwar. He hopes that in the future, a household in a global city like Dubai or Manila may purchase Daiso products that originated from Malaysian production. The government plans to continue encouraging investments that strengthen Malaysia's role in global supply chains.
