The Malaysia job outlook reveals ongoing and future skill shortages in technology, engineering, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. Demand for roles in AI, data science, cloud computing, and cybersecurity continues to exceed supply. Engineering fields, particularly electrical and mechanical, face talent gaps due to rapid industrial expansion. Healthcare shortages persist, driven by population growth and increasing medical needs. The manufacturing and semiconductor sectors also report insufficient skilled technicians. These shortages create strong opportunities for qualified local and foreign professionals. As industries modernize, Malaysia’s job outlook emphasises the importance of upskilling and specialised training to meet evolving workforce requirements.
