4 Malaysia s Potential to Become an ASEAN Gaming Hub Park So-hyun, Assistant Officer Trade and Investment Unit Abstract The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is at a critical juncture vis-a-vis the digital economy. ASEAN member states attempt to promote the gaming industry as a way of speeding up the transition towards a digital economy. Global attention has been drawn to ASEAN gaming industry ever since Sea Ltd., the Singapore-based unicorn game startup company (formerly known as Garena) was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in In particular, the Malaysian government has selected the gaming industry as its next economic growth engine and has intensified its effort to promote it. In February 2018, the ASEAN-Korea Centre held trade facilitation workshops for Malaysian MSMEs on the digital content industry in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and explored opportunities for further cooperation between the two countries in the gaming industry. Malaysia s competitive labor force, together with its business-friendly policies, relatively welldeveloped infrastructure, strategic geographic location, and cultural diversity have enabled Malaysia to be a strategic foothold to expand further into ASEAN markets. This report aims to give an overview of the Malaysian gaming industry and the Malaysian government s policies and strategies promoting the industry. It further highlights Malaysia s potential to become an ASEAN gaming hub.

5 Why did Streamline Studio choose Malaysia over Singapore? Streamline Studio, one of the leading game developers in Malaysia, originally started its business in the U.S. and moved to Amsterdam, Netherlands in When the global financial crisis hit the European economies, the company moved its headquarters to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2011 to explore new business opportunities. Since Streamline Studio relocated its headquarters, the company has developed games of its own, codeveloped with major game companies, and provided services throughout ASEAN region. Streamline Studio originally considered Singapore as its test bed for ASEAN game market, but ultimately Malaysia became their choice. Co-founder Stefan Baier attributed this to Malaysia s multi-skilled labor forces with a high rate of English proficiency, the Malaysian government s various incentives towards foreign investors, and Malaysia s relatively well-developed infrastructure. Malaysia s strategic location being at the center of six of ASEAN s largest game markets (Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia) is another important factor. Furthermore, the fact that Malaysia is one of the fastest growing gaming market in the world, and its competitive labor and rental costs compared to Singapore, and has a multicultural and multi-ethnic society were all additional factors that influenced Streamline Studio to move to Malaysia. Malaysia, the third largest games market in ASEAN Despite its relatively small population, Malaysia has a sizable and fast-growing game market. In 2017, Malaysia s game market volume increased by 16.3% year-on-year to a total of $587 million, and this was ranked third in ASEAN after Indonesia and Thailand. The app-based mobile game market is expanding rapidly and it is taking the market share over PC and console game, mostly due to the growing Internet access and smartphone penetration rate. Malaysian mobile game market volume is expected to grow at a 7.4% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from $288 million in 2017 to $384 million in 2020 (Statista, 2018). 2

Game market revenues per segment in Malaysia from 2014 to 2018 (in millions of USD)] TV/Console Mobile (Tablet & Smartphone) PC Others Source: Adapted from Newzoo (2017) and Statista (2018) data Malaysia has the second highest smartphone penetration rate and the third fastest 4G speeds in ASEAN Figure 2 shows the smartphone penetration rates and 4G speeds of the six largest game markets in ASEAN. In 2017, smartphone penetration rate in Malaysia is estimated to be 62% which is the second highest in ASEAN after Singapore (Newzoo, 2017). According to OpenSignal s findings, 4G mobile networks are available almost everywhere in Malaysia with average speeds of 14.83Mbps, making it the third fastest in ASEAN after Singapore and Vietnam.

Figure 3 indicates that gamers in Malaysia are third biggest spender on mobile games in ASEAN with $31.01 of average revenue per user (ARPU) (Statista, 2018). Considering fast-growing smart phone penetration rate and increase in the number of mobile gamers, the mobile game market profitability is expected to grow in the coming years. [Figure 3.

As Figure 4 demonstrates, action/adventure games are the third most popular genre with 21%, followed by simulation and puzzle games (Newzoo, 2016). As of March 2018, the most downloaded game in Malaysia on Google Play and the Apple App Store was Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, a multiplayer online battle arena, a sub-genre of strategy game published by Chinese game developer Shanghai Moonton (Apptweak, 2018). 4

Top 5 game genres on mobile in Malaysia, %] Strategy Racing Action/Adventure Simulation Puzzle Source: Newzoo (2016) Figure 5 indicates, among Malaysia s gamers, 42% are women, and the remaining 58% are men. Women prefer puzzle games, while men prefer strategy games, based on Newzoo data. The majority (47%) of the game-playing population is aged between 21 and 35 (Statista, 2018). [Figure 5. Distribution of gamers by gender and age in Malaysia in 2017] 28% Male 58% Female 42% 18% 14% 19% 12% 9% Source: Statista (2018) The gaming industry as Malaysia s new engine of economic growth The Malaysian government is providing a wide range of policy tools to promote the gaming industry as the new engine of economic growth (Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation [MDEC], 2018). In order to position Malaysia as the worldwide test bed and 5

9 ASEAN hub for game development, Malaysian government has tried to attract foreign companies to set up business in Malaysia through deregulation, subsidies, and tax incentives. Malaysia launched the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC Malaysia), a special economic zone, to transform the country into a developed nation by 2020 (MSC Malaysia, 2018). Local and foreign companies permitted into MSC Malaysia can get MSC Malaysia status and access to a number of benefits under the Bill of Guarantees. Malaysian-based start-ups and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) including Streamline Studio, are developing and expanding their businesses through the MSC Malaysia program. In 2017, Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) together with UOA Holdings launched Level Up Inc., a 6,000-square-foot game production hub in Bangsar South, to transform Malaysia into the regional game hub of Southeast Asia (MDEC, 2016). Level Up Inc. provides a wide range of supports such as co-working spaces, cloud services, technical support, expert mentoring etc. (MDEC, 2018). One of the success stories of Level Up Inc is Magnus Games Studio, an up-and-coming game developer, who recently signed a worldwide publishing agreement of its game Re:Legend with Italian-based game publisher and distributor, 505 Games S.p.A.. Re:Legend will be distributed globally through Steam, a digital gaming platform (MDEC, 2018). Meanwhile, Malaysian government also set up esports Malaysia, a governing body of esports in Malaysia and launched the 1st ASEAN Games for esports 2016 Tournament with $25.6 million in prizes as part of the effort to promote the gaming industry ( Future of esports, 2018). Every year the MDEC hosts Level Up KL, the largest international game exhibition in Southeast Asia, in order for ASEAN game developers to showcase their products to international buyers. Also, Malaysian government has devoted its efforts to foster young talent in the gaming industry. In February 2017, esports Malaysia together with Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation, officially established the esports Academy, Malaysia s first institution for game development (Maulana, 2017). Together with KDU University College, MDEC also launched the Level Up at School program, a game development courses for secondary school students to nurture talented engineers in the game industry. 6

Malaysian game developers have accumulated knowledge and experiences from outsourcing cooperation with global game companies such as Sony and have skilled English-speaking workers with diverse cultural backgrounds. Furthermore, Malaysia s strategic location and cultural connectivity to other ASEAN countries, low cost of doing business, welldeveloped IT infrastructure, competitive labor force, and relatively large domestic market have transformed Malaysia into a good springboard for ASEAN game market. Also, Malaysian government s effort to make business-friendly environment is the most important factor that has made Malaysia a prime investment destination. With such advantages, Malaysia has much potential to become a gaming hub in ASEAN, and for Korean start-ups and companies, Malaysia could be a strategic foothold to expand further into ASEAN markets. 7
