When a product or resource is made into a highly traded and especially a speculated 'commodity', it becomes "commoditised" (British, "commoditisation") / commoditized (American, "commoditization"), although if it were "commodified" ("commodification") there would be no different spelling but it's not quite right, isn't it? Like making something into a commode (relating to the toilet)...
In Bahasa, it would be "komoditisasi" not "komoditasi" or "komodisasi", or the purist linguist like me would prefer "pengkomoditian".
