This paper analyses the structural interrelationship of the West Malaysian economy based on the 1982 inter-industry table. Four types of direct interdependence are examined, namely, industrial share of final demand and primary input components, input requirement and intermediate transactions of industries. The study indicates that a substantial proportion of private consumption in the economy comprises expenditure on food and services. The fixed capital formation structure is dominated by the construction and motor vehicle industries while the export mix is dominatedby the petroleum products, rubber processing and oils and fats industries. In general, the non-agrobased manufacturing industries are the major purchasers of imported inputs whereas the agricultural and service industries are the major users of primary inputs. The analysis of structure of intermediate transactions indicates that there are only a few industries that possess extensive technological linkages with the rest of the economy. The majority of high-linkage industries comprise those that are involved in the processing of imported inputs for domestic or export markets such as chemical fertilizers, plastic products and other metal products.
