On 16 Dec 2021, China Enterprises Chamber of Commerce in Malaysia (CECCM) was invited to participate in the “Enterprises Seizing RCEP Opportunities” online meeting hosted by the China-ASEAN Business Council. There were more than 250 participants from cities in China and China companies from Southeast Asian countries participated online.
中国东盟商务理事会执行理事长许宁宁表示,在RCEP即将生效之际,促进东盟各国之间的经贸了解非常重要,因此此次会议的召开十分具有现实意义。他也强调,对于东盟各国而言,提升区域合作水平及开发区域合作潜力,是对中企在疫情影响下的解困之道和长远发展之计,更是应对复杂多变国际形势带来严峻挑战的共同需要。重大的新冠疫情让人们更加意识到区域合作的重要,使得区域合作在各国对外关系中位置提升。对此,中资企业应着力提升区域合作水平,积极开发区域合作潜力。
Mr. Xu Ningning, Executive President of the China-ASEAN Business Council, stated that as RCEP is about to take effect, it is very important to promote economic and trade understanding among ASEAN countries. Therefore, this meeting is of practical significance. He also emphasized that for ASEAN countries, improving and developing the potential of regional cooperation is a solution to the difficulties and long-term development of China enterprises under the influence of the pandemic. It is also a serious challenge to the complex and changeable global situation. The pandemic has made people more aware of the importance of regional cooperation, which has elevated the position of regional cooperation in the foreign relations of various countries. In this regard, China funded enterprises should focus on improving and actively developing the potential for regional cooperation.
张敏会长在进行主旨发言时表示,马来西亚目前是全球33种产品的出口国,包括棕榈油、光学检测仪器、石化产品、橡胶制品等。马来西亚也已将RCEP作为后疫情时代的经济复苏的重大机遇。虽然随着RCEP的实施将增加马来西亚与其他东盟国家之间的竞争,但马来西亚政府对这些挑战也做出了积极的政策回应。主要包括实施工业4.0和第12个马来西亚计划(2021-2025年)。通过使用数字化和自动化来取代大规模人力生产,以提高制造业的效率,创造竞争优势和新机遇。
Mr. Zhang Min, President of CECCM stated that Malaysia is currently an exporter of 33 products worldwide, including palm oil, optical testing equipment, petrochemical products, and rubber products. Malaysia has also used RCEP as a major opportunity for economic recovery in the post-epidemic era. Although the implementation of RCEP will increase competition between Malaysia and other ASEAN countries, the Malaysian government has also responded positively to these challenges. It mainly includes the implementation of Industry 4.0 and the 12th Malaysia Plan (2021-2025) where the use of digitization and automation can replace large-scale human production to improve the efficiency of the manufacturing industry.
他表示总商会愿意对有意来马开展业务的机构和人士提供必要的咨询和服务,积极助力中资企业抓住RCEP机遇、开发合作新潜能。会议上各国中资企业代表也积极发言,对企业如何抓住RCEP机遇进行沟通交流。
He expressed that the CECCM is willing to provide necessary consulting and services to institutions or parties who are interested in doing business in Malaysia. CECCM will actively help China-funded enterprises to seize the RCEP opportunities and develop new cooperation potentials. During the meeting, representatives of China-funded enterprises from various countries also actively spoke at the meeting to communicate and exchange ideas on how enterprises can seize the opportunity of RCEP.
