SENIOR PARTNER, HEAD OF ASIA CHEMICALS AND COMMERCIAL EXCELLENCE PRACTICES, BAIN & COMPANY
"A lot of the requests we receive from our clients are around doubling down on costs, becoming more efficient in conversion, produce higher grade polymers, and commercial excellence."
SOUTHEAST ASIA AREA DIRECTOR, OILFIELD SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT (OFSE), BAKER HUGHES
"Demand is growing every year. This is driven by the fact that most Southeast Asian countries struggle to meet annual production targets, creating a gap for improvements."
"We also expect to see a boom in renewables. 2030 is only six years away, leaving a short timeframe to invest and execute projects that will allow Malaysia to meet its carbon commitments."
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES COUNCIL OF MALAYSIA (CICM)
“The challenge for the Malaysian chemical industry is different: We must question where we go from here onwards and push forward into the specialty space.”
FOUNDER AND CEO, CENTER FOR LOGISTICS LEADERSHIP IN BUSINESS (CLLB)
"I believe the country has potential to become a logistics hub for DGs. Malaysia’s regulation is probably the most advanced in ASEAN, after Singapore, so it makes sense to develop training programs in other countries to harmonize standards across the region."
“I am very keen to attract new contract manufacturing clients. We are currently producing pathogen controls chemicals in animal feed for a client, but our facilities are flexible to accommodate different requirements.”
