 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS
FIRST APEC SENIOR OFFICIALS’ MEETING
The First APEC Senior Official Meeting deliberated
details of key priorities and deliverables for 2011
particularly in the areas of strengthening regional
economic integration and expanding trade, promoting
green growth as well as advancing good regulatory
convergence and cooperation.
Market-driven innovation policies will be further
developed to address the next generation trade and
investment issues which include supply-chain, cloud
computing business models and barriers faced by
SMEs.
On APEC New Strategy for Structural Reform (ANSSR),
an Action Plan will be developed based on the common
elements for capacity building. Possible reform priority
areas for consideration include:
• ease of doing business;
• SMEs development;
• better functioning and effectively regulated financial
markets;
• transparent and competitive markets;
• promoting labour market opportunities;
• training and education; and
• promoting effective and fiscally sustainable social
safety net programmes.
Access to green technology and capacity building
INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT AGREEMENTS IN APEC
APEC together with UNCTAD organised an ‘Intensive
Training Course on International Agreements in the
APEC Region’, from 7-11 March 2011, in Lima, Peru.
The objective was to expose Government officials by
providing a better understanding on the elements and
latest developments regarding International Investment
Agreements (IIAs). Speakers included representatives
from UNCTAD, National University of Singapore and
University of Mexico.
Key issues discussed included:
• trends and emerging issues in considering
engagement in an IIA;
• various approaches on drafting of an IIA;
• management and prevention of disputes;
• alternatives to arbitration and possibilities for
amicable settlement of disputes; and
• analysis on recent treaty practices.
The training course required participants to share their
national practices in drafting or engaging in an IIA.
Malaysia shared its experiences on:
• bilateral and regional investment agreements
would be given focus to enable economies to benefit
from APEC green growth initiatives. Among the areas
identified for work this year include:
• draw up a list of non-tariff measures (NTMs) in
environmental goods (EGS) in APEC and shortlist
two EGS products for the removal of NTMs;
• implement programmes to provide timely approval
for temporary importation of a small number
of non-saleable advanced and alternative fuel
demonstration motor vehicles;
• promote low-carbon development through low-
carbon model towns;
• phase out fossil fuel subsidies without impacting
the vulnerable groups;
• develop and deploy electrical Smart Grids to
facilitate interoperability of standards between
networks, systems, devices and applications which
will help to achieve energy efficiency; and
• combat trade in illegal forestry products.
On regulatory convergence and cooperation, economies
viewed that rule-making process differs between
economies and there is no “one-size-fit-all” approach.
Economies agreed that good regulatory practices
should include transparency through participation
of stakeholders, harmonisation of regulations and
eliminating redundant and non-compatible regulations.
signed and those under negotiation;
• review of signed IIAs;
• considerations and cost-benefit analysis in
identifying potential dialogue partners to engage
in an IIA; and
• various provisions of an IIA, including scope,
definitions, and most favoured nation (MFN).
Impact and implications of the Lisbon Treaty were also
discussed. The European Union does not have its own
template for negotiating the investment chapter under
its current investment policy. Therefore all IIAs signed
between EU countries and other countries shall remain
even with the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty.
Following that, negotiations for reviews or on-going IIAs
with the EU countries shall continue.
Malaysia also participated in two sets of simulation
exercises of negotiating a high-standard IIA from the
perspective of a developing and developed nation.
Participation in this course has provided policy
makers and negotiators including Malaysia a better
understanding on various provisions in an IIA.

 THE TRANS-PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations
entered its Sixth Round in Singapore from 28 March to
1 April 2011.
Negotiations in Singapore are expected to be a
continuation of the Santiago Round Negotiators will
intensify work on the text of the various chapters and the
evaluation of initial market access offers. Discussions
at the Sixth Round are expected to move into greater
technical details. The Working Groups will discuss the
initial offers in the areas of services, investment and
financial services.
PROGRAM ‘OUTREACH’ MITI DAN AGENSI BERSAMA
PELAJAR IPTA/IPTS NEGERI KEDAH
Program ‘Outreach’ MITI dan agensi MITI bersama
pelajar Institusi Pengajian Tinggi (IPT) bagi siri ke 4 telah
diadakan di Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Merbok,
Kedah pada 20 Mac, 2011. Program ini dirasmikan oleh
Dato’ Mukhriz Tun Mahathir, Timbalan Menteri MITI.
Program ini melibat kerjasama antara MITI dengan
agensi MITI peringkat Wilayah Utara iaitu MIDA,
MATRADE, MPC, SMEBank, SMECorp. dan HDC serta
Bahagian Pembangunan Usahawan, MITI Putrajaya.
Program ini diketuai oleh Dato Nik Zainiah Nik Abd
Rahman serta Dato’ Wahab Hamid, Timbalan Ketua
Pengarah II, MIDA.
Objektif utama program adalah untuk menyalurkan
maklumat terkini mengenai peranan dan fungsi MITI
dan agensi di bawah MITI terutamanya perkara yang
berkaitan dengan keusahawanan. Ianya juga dapat
memberi peluang kepada pelajar IPT berdialog secara
langsung dengan Timbalan Menteri MITI serta tokoh-
tokoh usahawan Enterprais Kecil dan Sederhana.
MALAYSIA’S SUCCESS STORY
TOP GLOVE CORPORATION BERHAD
Top Glove Corporation Berhad telah diasaskan pada
tahun 1991 dengan impian untuk mengeksport sarung
tangan buatan Malaysia ke seluruh dunia.
Pada peringkat awal, Top Glove menghadapi banyak
kesulitan, termasuk mendapatkan kepercayaan
pelanggan, kekurangan pengetahuan teknikal,
kekurangan dana, serta sumber tenaga dan pekerja
yang terhad. Malah, sehingga kini, masih terdapat lagi
cabaran terutamanya dalam memastikan Top Glove
sentiasa berada di hadapan saingan yang lain.
Walau apapun, Top Glove sentiasa berusaha untuk
mengatasi pelbagai cabaran. Fokus terhadap
A major issue considered during the Fifth Round was
on how the TPP could be developed into a ‘living
agreement’. It was agreed that the:
• TPP agreement must facilitate the expansion of
future membership;
• have the capacity to evolve and address future
issues; and
• contain a flexible administrative structure that
would not put a financial or human resource burden
on members.
At the Sixth Round, TPP negotiators will be expected to
see how this can be incorporated into the Agreement.
Seramai 450 peserta yang terdiri dari pelajar tahun
akhir dari Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Merbok,
Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), Universiti Malaysia
Perlis (UNIMAP) dan Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM)
hadir diprogram ini. Selain itu, wakil-wakil akademik dan
pensyarah juga terlibat dalam menjayakan program ini.
Semasa program berlansung, banyak persoalan yang
dikemukakan oleh wakil pelajar IPT kepada Timbalan
Menteri MITI antaranya :
• isu-isu ekonomi semasa;
• peranan MITI berkaitan tadbir urus syarikat;
• produk HALAL;
• ‘Young Entrepreneur Challenge’;
• perdagangan dalam dan luar negara; dan
• isu politik semasa yang mempengaruhi senario
ekonomi dunia.
Secara keseluruhan, program ini berjaya mendekatkan
para pelajar IPT untuk lebih memahami fungsi MITI
dan juga agensi terutama dalam menceburi dunia
keusahawanan.
pengeluaran produk berkualiti yang konsisten serta
harga yang kompetitif telah membolehkannnya
menembusi pasaran tempatan dan juga antarabangsa.
Pada awal penubuhan syarikat, Top Golve terpaksa
menggunakan modal sendiri serta bergantung
kepada pinjaman bank. Setelah disenaraikan di
Bursa Malaysia, Top Glove berjaya meraih RM58
juta untuk mengembangkan perniagaan syarikat.
Pada pertengahan tahun 2000, syarikat mengalami
pertumbuhan pesat, setelah ia memasuki pasaran
hutang dengan mengeluarkan bon. Menjelang 2008,
apabila semua operasi syarikat menjana aliran tunai
MITI Weekly Bulletin 06
yang positif, kos pengembangan syarikat mampu
dibiayai oleh dana syarikat sepenuhnya. Keadaan
kewangan yang sihat ini membolehkan Top Glove
menebus kesemua bon mereka sebelum tarikh matang.
Dalam usaha mengisi kekurangan kemahiran
teknikal, Top Glove telah bekerjasama dengan Institut
Kajian Getah Malaysia (RRI) bagi membantu dalam
penyelidikan dan pembangunan (R&D). Penekanan
dalam aktiviti R&D ini bertujuan menjadikan Top Glove
sebagai pengeluar sarung tangan bertaraf dunia
yang kos-efektif, seterusnya sebagai Pusat Sehenti
Pengeluaran dan Pembekalan Sarung Tangan.
Demi mengatasi kekurangan sumber tenaga, Top Glove
telah memilih untuk menggunakan tenaga biomass
yang bukan sahaja mampu menyelesaikan masalah
sumber tenaga, malah juga mengurangkan kos.
Selepas dua dekad sejak penubuhannnya, Top Glove
telah berkembang pesat dan kini berbangga menjadi
pengeluar sarung tangan getah terbesar di dunia. Ia
juga disenaraikan di dalam Papan Kedua Bursa Saham
Kuala Lumpur pada tahun 2001, dan seterusnya telah
dinaikkan ke senarai Papan Utama hanya dalam
jangkamasa setahun.
Dari hanya sebuah kilang yang mempunyai tiga tertib
pengeluaran, Top Glove kini beroperasi dengan 20
buah kilang dan 379 tertib pengeluaran di Malaysia,
Thailand dan China. Syarikat ini juga telah mencatat
pertumbuhan purata sebanyak 30% hingga 40% jualan
dan keuntungan bagi tempoh 10 tahun yang lepas.

MITI CAPTURES - WORLDWIDE

1. SINGAPORE: PERFORMANCE OF TOURISM INDUSTRY

Cumulative tourism receipts improved
by 49% to S$18.8 billion from January
to December 2010, exceeding the year’s
forecast range of S$17.5 to S$18.5
billion.
The high growth in tourism receipts was
attributed by the Singapore Tourism
Board (STB) to higher per capita
spending, strong international visitor
arrivals and the opening of two Integrated
Resorts (IRs) in 2010. In 2010,
International visitor arrivals to Singapore
reached 11.6 million, registering a 20%
increase year-on-year.
According to the Ministry of Trade
and Industry (MTI), the spending
of incremental visitors (namely
tourists who would not have come to
Singapore if not for the IRs) generated
an estimated S$3.7 billion in value-
added (or 1.7% of GDP) in the first
three quarters of 2010.
Singapore’s two Integrated Resorts
(IRs) are:
1. Marina Bay Sands (MBS) owned by
Las Vegas Sands.
2. Resorts World Sentosa (RWS)
owned by Genting Singapore
In terms of employment, the two IRs is
estimated to have created 30,300 jobs,
out of the 111,500 new jobs generated
by tourist spending in the first three
quarters of 2010. This compares with
the initial official projection that the IRs
would generate 50,000 to 60,000 new
jobs throughout the economy by 2015.
The Government anticipates the IRs
to directly bring in more than S$12
billion of investment when they are fully
completed, and generate new business
opportunities for local companies.
Business travellers to Singapore include
MICE delegates which form a significant
segment of overall visitors. In 2010,
the industry reported an estimated 20%
surge in sales in the MICE businesses.
The MICE industry is expected to grow
by 10% this year.

2. PHILIPPINES: INCREASED ON KEY POLICY INTEREST RATES

The Monetary Board has increased the
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas’ (BSP) key
policy interest rates by 25 basis points
to 4.25% for the overnight borrowing
or reverse repurchase (RRP) facility
and 6.25% for the overnight lending or
repurchase (RP) facility. The interest
rates on term RRPs, RPs, and special
deposit accounts (SDAs) were also
raised accordingly.
Basis for the Monetary Board’s decision
was to minimise the overall impact of
rising inflation faced by the country with
respect to global situation pressure on
the country.
Global condition have resulted in
international food and oil prices to
escalated due to the combination of
sustained strong global demand and
supply disruptions and constraints.
The latest baseline inflation forecasts
now indicate that the 3 to 5% inflation
target range in 2011 could be at risk.
The BSP stated that vibrant domestic
demand provides room for a policy
interest rate hike without affecting the
country’s economic growth prospects.
The last interest rate adjustment was
done on 9 July 2009.

in January 2011 after having risen 1.2%
in December. In the manufacturing
sector, output increased 0.3% in
January after an upwardly revised gain
of 0.9% in December. Excluding motor
vehicles and parts, factory production
rose 0.1% in January. The output
of utilities fell 1.6% in January, as
temperatures moved closer to normal
after unseasonably cold weather
boosted the demand for heating in
December. The output of utilities
advanced 4.1% in that month. In
January, the output of mines declined
0.7%.

4.4 percentage points below its average
from 1972 to 2010.
US total foreign trade of goods and
services – total December 2010 exports

DOING BUSINESS IN SINGAPORE

SINGAPORE
Malaysian companies can access EnterpriseOne which provides wide overview of how to start or do business in
Singapore (at http://www.business.gov.sg/EN/StartingUp/ForeignBusinesses/) including information on government
assistance programmes, regulations and e-services for businesses from various Ministries, government agencies
as well as business associations. The site is managed by SPRING Singapore which is the equivalent of SME Corp.

Another useful website is Contact Singapore’s link for investors on doing business (http://www.contactsingapore.
sg/investors/investing_in_singapore/doing_business_in_singapore/) which provides information on registration of
business, finding premises and recruitment.

Companies may also wish to refer to EDB’s guide to investing in Singapore (http://www.sedb.com/edb/sg/en_uk/
index/why_singapore/Guide_to_Investing_in_Singapore.html) that provides similar information as like MIDA.
