KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - In light of the South China Morning Post’s recent coverage on the accelerating interest in precious metals across Southeast Asia particularly with silver and gold approaching historic price levels, Mohd Razalie Abdul Rasul, Managing Director of Abdul Razak Gold House (M) Sdn Bhd, offered expert commentary on evolving investor behaviour and market dynamics in Malaysia’s bullion sector.

Published January 19, 2026, the SCMP report highlighted a sharp rise in regional interest for precious metals, driven by investors seeking safe-haven assets amid global economic uncertainty and tight supply conditions. Silver has notably surged, challenging gold’s traditional dominance as Southeast Asian investors broaden their strategies.

Mohd Razalie Abdul Rasul’s Perspective

“Across Malaysia and the broader ASEAN region, we are observing a notable shift in both retail and institutional investors’ approach to precious metals,” said Razalie. “Gold continues to be viewed as a cornerstone of wealth preservation, but silver’s recent ascent has captured new segments of the market from younger investors to industrial buyers.”

As Managing Director of one of Malaysia’s most established gold trading houses, Razalie emphasized that trust, transparency, and competitive pricing remain critical for investors navigating volatile markets. These values are key pillars of Abdul Razak Gold House’s decades-long service, offering both buy-sell transactions and investment guidance in physical bullion.

Founded on principles of integrity and excellence, Abdul Razak Gold House has provided high-quality bullion, jewellery, and precious metals services for generations, cementing its reputation as a trusted market participant in Kuala Lumpur and beyond. The company continues to support clients through secure physical trading, up-to-date market pricing, expert valuations, and personalized investment advice.

“While gold historically dominates Southeast Asian portfolios, investors today are increasingly sophisticated,” Razalie noted. “They want strategic insight as much as they want fair pricing and that’s where experienced guidance matters.”
