How is this data produced?

The Industrial Production Index (IPI) in Malaysia measures the rate of change in production of industrial commodities in the Mining, Manufacturing, and Electricity sectors in real terms over time.

What caveats I should bear in mind when using this data?

The IPI is a base year-weighted arithmetic average of quantity relatives calculated using the Laspeyres formula, with the base year of 1968 (1968=100) being the first year of its construction. The IPI pertains to Malaysia, with the exception of the base years 1968 and 1981, which pertain to Peninsular Malaysia. Data for December 2022 is provisional; it will be updated and subsequently published in the January 2023 publication.
