Summary
Malaysia is becoming a hotspot for semiconductor factories as companies like Intel, GlobalFoundries, and Infineon set up or expand operations in the country. The U.S.-China chip war has prompted companies to diversify operations, with Malaysia's well-established infrastructure and skilled labor making it an attractive location. However, the country faces challenges due to brain drain as workers leave for better opportunities in other countries.
