Malaysia’s market share is expected to shrink to 60% by 2022 from 67% currently, he added.\nThe Chinese companies have been meeting rising demand from the U.S and Europe amid production disruptions caused by a flare-up of the coronavirus pandemic in Malaysia, the world’s largest rubber glove supplier.\n“Like it or not, China is now a force to reckon and is a competition we should recognize,” Kuan said in a virtual briefing after the company’s annual shareholders meeting. “I don’t see Malaysia will lose leadership position in the near-and-medium term,” the CEO said, adding he’s unsure if the country can keep its dominance in the long term.\nHartalega is currently operating only at 70% of its capacity utilizing 60% of its workforce, he said. Operating at full capacity would require the company to test all its 9,000 workers for Covid-19 every two weeks, which Kuan described as a major disruption.\nOther Highlights\n\nHartalega sees the average selling price of gloves to normalize by the first quarter of next year after having been on a downtrend since its peak moving into second of the year, Kuan said.\nCompany to spend 1.3 billion ringgit ($313.4 million) for capital expenditure over the next three years, mainly earmarked for automation, research and development and digitalization, he added.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":880052696,"gmtCreate":1631002933115,"gmtModify":1676530439458,"author":{"id":"3573877891823690","authorId":"3573877891823690","name":"waiwaiho","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b112a07bf435c07a2caef2264c1f3d2b","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3573877891823690","idStr":"3573877891823690"},"htmlText":"Pls like &amp; comment, thanks&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like &amp; comment, thanks&nbsp;","text":"Pls like & comment, thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/880052696","repostId":1178376258,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":880088980,"gmtCreate":1630999935340,"gmtModify":1676530438684,"author":{"id":"3570531027454372","authorId":"3570531027454372","name":"AndyGohKJ","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c341f880b1434748ec70208fe9f0344c","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"3570531027454372","idStr":"3570531027454372"},"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/880088980","repostId":1178376258,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":880089426,"gmtCreate":1630999630965,"gmtModify":1676530438627,"author":{"id":"3572304910905752","authorId":"3572304910905752","name":"fortuna","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3572304910905752","idStr":"3572304910905752"},"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/880089426","repostId":1178376258,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":5778746,"gmtCreate":1631000264309,"gmtModify":1663233502252,"authorId":3560310978208055,"author":{"id":3560310978208055,"idStr":"3560310978208055","authorId":3560310978208055,"name":"JT888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/401d4c74d73fbfc36934d21a5f23ac78","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":880089426,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"??","text":"??","html":"??"}],"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":26,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.1","shortVersion":"4.29.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1178376258"}
