Malaysia Betters Rubber Production, Finds A ‘Glove Avenue’ In US Tariff

Malaysia bettered its rubber production in the second month of this year after taking a severe beating in January due to rains. The fresh impetus has bolstered the spirits of the administration and the Malaysian Rubber Board, who are engaged in a concerted effort to boost rubber production in the country. They are harping on a long-term plan for a quantum jump in rubber production by reviving idle plantations in over 420,000 hectares held by smallholders in the country.
