(Bloomberg) -- Malaysia, the biggest exporter of
tropical timber, is planning a $900 million pulp mill in Sarawak
state to take advantage of rising prices and increasing local
power supply, according to two people familiar with the matter.
The mill, to be developed by Sarawak's state government,
will have capacity to produce at least 700,000 metric tons a
year, according to the people, who declined to be named before
an official announcement. The project may cost $700 million to
$900 million and be fed by Acacia Mangium hardwood trees from a
state-owned plantation.
