While logistics rents across Asia-Pacific are contracting for the first time since the pandemic, Malaysia's industrial real estate market is holding steady. So what's driving this unique resilience, and how is demand evolving in a post-e-commerce boom era?

Allan Sim, Senior Executive Director at Knight Frank Malaysia, joins us to break down the findings from their latest report. He discusses how Malaysia's neutral status, strong infrastructure, and surprising new demand from EV makers and even pickleball courts are shaping a balanced and robust market.

We discuss:

• Why Malaysia's industrial market is resilient amid a regional slowdown.

• The surprising impact of pickleball courts on industrial land supply.

• The new demand drivers, including EV manufacturers and cold chain logistics.

• How infrastructure projects like the ECRL will shape future demand.

• The outlook for rents as a new wave of multi-level warehouses comes online.

  For investors, developers, and business owners in the logistics and manufacturing sectors, this is a deep dive into the forces shaping Malaysia's industrial real estate landscape.
