Publication Of Books Companies in Malaysia

Book publishing in Malaysia is a relatively new industry, with the first Malaysian publishing company only being established in the early 1990s. However, in recent years the industry has grown rapidly, with a number of new companies springing up to meet the demand for Malaysian-authored books.

The majority of Malaysian book publishers are based in the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, although there are a few companies located in other parts of the country. The vast majority of books published in Malaysia are in the English language, although there is a growing market for books in other languages such as Bahasa Malaysia, Chinese and Tamil.

The majority of Malaysian book publishers focus on non-fiction titles, particularly books on Malaysian history, culture and politics. However, there is a growing market for fiction books, particularly novels by Malaysian authors.

A number of Malaysian book publishers have achieved international recognition, with their books being sold in countries all over the world. This has helped to put Malaysia on the map as a major center for book publishing in Southeast Asia.
