KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 21 — The transformation of the bamboo industry needs a holistic approach to create a conducive environment so that the transition of the industry’s structure from a small-scale oriented industry to a downstream industry that produces high value-added bamboo products can be achieved.

“I am confident that with continuous programmes in research, development and encouragement, the bamboo industry will be able to optimise the use of this raw material resource as an alternative source in the timber industry,” he said when officiating the celebration of World Bamboo Day Malaysia 2023 here today.

“In Peninsular Malaysia, the distribution area of bamboo plants is approximately 229,122.57 hectares. Although in terms of the export value contribution of this product is not large compared to other wood products, it has a very large potential to be developed and used as an alternative material for wood in various types of applications,” he said.

Fadillah said that last year, the export value of bamboo products amounted to RM14.46 million, which is an increase of 66.1 per cent compared to the previous year’s RM8.7 million, while the import value of bamboo products for 2022 was as high as RM129.18 million, with products mostly imported from China, Indonesia and Vietnam.
