MELAKA, Kuala Lumpur, June 13 (Bernama) — Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (Nasdaq: TXN), today announced plans to expand its internal manufacturing footprint in Malaysia with two new assembly and test factories in Kuala Lumpur and Melaka. Together, these new investments will support TI’s plan to bring 90% of its assembly and test operations internal by 2030 to have greater control of supply.
YB Senator Tengku Datuk Seri Utama Zafrul Bin Tengku Abdul Aziz, Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) said, “We are encouraged by Texas Instruments’ continued confidence in the Malaysian investment ecosystem. TI’s plans to expand its assembly and test operations reflect Malaysia’s clear positioning in the global semiconductor supply chain, while complementing our New Investment Policy and New Industrial Master Plan’s focus on attracting hi-tech, high value investments to support our increasingly digitized global and domestic economies. Further, TI’s expanded investment footprint in our country will not only bolster domestic value chains, but also create knowledge-based, high-income employment opportunities for Malaysians.”
