Subsidy and export: Malaysian case

Shazali Abu Mansor and Bakri Abdul Karim

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper examines the long-run relationship between subsidies and export for the case of Malaysia using annual data from 1976 to 2010 and cointegration test. The results show that the subsidies significantly influence export in the long-run. This support the argument by the non-neo-classical economists’ propagation that export promotion requires a pro-active government role in the economy. This study has shed some lights that subsidy may not be detrimental to an economy.
