Abstract

Input - output analysis is used in assessing the economic impact of Malaysian timber products exports. Relative to the size of export values, the exporting of sawn timber, veneer and plywood, moulding and joinery and furniture and fixtures contributed relatively higher direct and indirect output, employment, value addedand commodity taxes than the exporting of logs, and paper and paper products. These findings suggest that further domestic processing of logs before exporting would generate high total direct and indirect output, value added, employment and government revenue to the economy due to their greater technological sectoral linkages.
