Update on COVID-19

The Government of Malaysia has implemented the Restriction

of Movement Order (RMO) from 18th March 2020 to 28th April

2020 as a measure to address the spread of

COVID-19 cases.

The implementation of the RMO may have a dire impact on

the Malaysian aerospace industry due to the temporary

suspension of various services and production activities.

MAIA has engaged with YB Dato' Seri Mohamed Azmin Bin Ali,

Minister of International Trade and Industry, whereby we have

addressed these matters with the Government on behalf of

industry, to mitigate any possible negative impact on the

industry.

MAIA has been and is collating feedback from our members,

in order to compile a list of critical issues and recommended

solutions required from Government, for the manufacturing

and MRO sectors.

Safety Measures during COVID-19 outbreak

Wash your hands with soap and water

frequently

Use hand sanitizer if soap and water are not

available

Avoid contact with other persons (practice

social distancing)

use a face mask if you have symptoms

CEO Business

Meeting Event for

Innovative

Technology in Japan

T H E O B J E C T I V E S O F T H I S E V E N T

1. to network not only between Malaysia

and Japanese companies, but also the

other Asian countries that participated

such as Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam,

Singapore, and India.

2. to explore any potential collaboration

between Malaysian and Japanese

companies.

MAIA engaged with a few Japanese

Companies; Tokyo Hardfacing Inc, PC Farm

Co., Ltd, Sugawasa Seiki Co.,Ltd,

Shinkukigyou Co., Ltd, Kansai Bureau of

Economy, Trade and Industry (METI KANSAI),

HADA Seikou Co., Ltd, and Mitaka Seihan

Co., Ltd. These companies are looking into

potential business or collaboration with

Malaysian companies.

On top of that, MAIA received a request from

Kansai Bureau of Economy, Trade and

Industry (METI- Kansai) to host a few

Japanese companies to visit Malaysia in

February 2020.

DURING THIS 6-DAY EVENT, ONE OF THE ACTIVITIES WAS A VISIT TO AEROSPACE AICHI AND MRJ MUSEUM. ALL THE PARTICIPANTS WERE BRIEFED ABOUT MRJ’S DEVELOPMENT, TECHNOLOGY AND MANUFACTURING OF THE AIRCRAFT.

Mr Naguib spoke about the aerospace

industry ecosystem in Malaysia. His

presentation touched on the development

of the Malaysian aerospace supply chain

and how Malaysian and Japanese

companies, particularly SMEs, can

collaborate for the growth of the

aerospace ecosystem in both countries.

The highlight of this 6-day event was the

Business Meeting Event and Seminar for

Innovative Technology on 16th and 18th

October 2019.

The itinerary as below:

The CEO Network Enhancing Project is an initiative to share Japan's innovative technology to eight

invited countries. This is a platform to link Japanese SMEs with other trusted companies across the

world. It was an honor and privilege for Global Turbine Asia Sdn Bhd (GTA ) to be invited to participate

in this program. GTA has developed to become a leading MRO service provider for the aerospace

industry and has shown excellent progress over the years. GTA’s participation in the CEO Network

Enhancing Project connects us directly with Japanese companies that possess excellent products

and technical strengths that could form the basis of an opportunity to collaborate and cooperate with

them.

The event participants were introduced to the SME manufacturers with experience in the

implementation of advance technology, product quality, cost management and on-time processing.

We were able to observe their processes and basic operations - which increased our level of interest

to select matching companies. During the Business Meeting, we also had the opportunity to organize

one-on-one interactions with the Japanese companies with different backgrounds and expertise.

More importantly, we were able to learn the details of products, respective business content, and to

exchange ideas, point of views and business cultures - which could help us to explore suitable

partnerships for future development.

We received positive feedback from the companies that were interested in coordinating future

visits to GTA and to have further discussions. Such participation overseas, enables us to build

more opportunities for growth and for diversification, instead of merely focusing on existing

markets. In conclusion, participating in this CEO Networking Enhancing Project provided various

benefits - information gathering, valuable experience, mutual understanding of

each other’s businesses, and building trust for future business collaboration.
