What are the existing advantages and disadvantages of doing business in Malaysia which can help us to attain this objective?

Ghana and Cameroon are two other tropical timber producers that have achieved their own FLEGT agreements, therefore giving them definitive appeal to the European market. In this context, selected business indicators are considered here to illustrate the challenges of Malaysian competitiveness towards attaining higher value path in international timber trade.
