How is this data produced?

The Industrial Production Index (IPI) is designed to measure the production of industrial commodities in the mining, manufacturing, and electricity sectors in real terms (i.e. in terms of output, not sales value). The IPI is produced using the following data:

  • Monthly data on the production of crude oil and natural gas from PETRONAS.
  • Monthly production data for 245 selected industries in the manufacturing sector from the Monthly Manufacturing Survey, which covers establishments with significant sales.
  • Monthly data on the production of crude palm oil, refined palm kernel oil and palm kernel oil from the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB).
  • Monthly data on the generation of electricity from Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Sabah Electricity Sdn. Bhd. (SESB) and Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB).

For a full description of the methodology, please refer to the Technical Notes.

What caveats I should bear in mind when using this data?

Seasonally adjusted data (for all groups) and data for groups in the electricity section (D, 351 to 353) is not provided at 3 digit granularity. Furthermore:

  • Although the mining section (B) contains 10 groups, only data for crude oil and natural gas (061 and 062) is provided here, because computation of the IPI does not include the other 8 groups.
  • The manufacturing section (C) contains 71 groups. However, data for groups 191 and 304 is not provided because they are not included in computation of the IPI. Data for group 252 is subsumed under data for group 251 in the dataset due to a high margin of error when the two are disaggregated.
