International Conference on Sarawak & ASEAN 2018
PROCEEDINGS REPORT International Conference on Sarawak & ASEAN 2018 Growing Together for Common Prosperity & Regional Wellbeing Proceeding Report from discussions on 1st November 2018 at Hilton Hotel Kuching Key points • There is still much uncertainty in Sarawak’s politics with the relationship between the state government’s Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) and the Pakatan Harapan federal government. The Malaysia Agreement 1963 is poised to be a factor in the next state elections. Although Sarawak prides itself for being unaffected by racial and religious issues, there has been divisiveness over politics as rural communities have been caught in between power plays by the state and federal government. • Sarawak experienced a GDP growth rate of 4.7 percent in 2017, more than double the growth rate from the year before. It is the third biggest economy behind Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, contributing to 9.7 percent of Malaysia’s national GDP. It has a GDP per capita of MYR49,327, the lowest rate of inflation at 3 percent, and an unemployment rate of 3 percent. Sarawak posted a revenue of MYR6.86 billion in 2017. The state’s 2019 budget will be the biggest budget ever for the state, which focuses on improving its infrastructure. These developments will further enhance the level competitiveness of the state. • Sarawak plans to improve its digital economy, with significant investments to its digital infrastructure. However, there is still more improvements required such as high-speed broadband which is lacking. There also needs to be a digital ecosystem for businesses to take on e-commerce platforms and leverage on the Internet of Things to attain greater efficiency.
