MABC to host VIP luncheon with Pemandu CEO, Idris Jala

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysia Australia Business Council (MABC) will be hosting a VIP luncheon event, featuring PEMANDU Associates Sdn Bhd president and chief executive officer, Datuk Seri Idris Jala on May 23.

Themed, “Six Secrets of Transformational Leadership”, the event will be held at the Pullman Kuala Lumpur City Centre.

A renowned expert in transforming companies’ performance through his big fast results methodology and strategies, Idris Jala will be sharing his expertise in six key areas of leadership, including the use of key performance indicators (KPIs) as anchors.

In a statement yesterday, MABC said this would be an opportunity for Australian companies to learn from a leading figure who had played a vital role in shaping Malaysia’s strategic direction.

“We at MABC find it important to continue strengthening relationships and to build a clear understanding of the realities and strategic directions of both economies, so that businesses can make informed trade and investment decisions,” said chairman, Leigh Howard.

Bilateral trade between Malaysia and Australia had been in excess of A$15 billion per annum, with both economies listing each other as top trading nations.

Trade continued to grow following the signing of the Malaysia - Australia Free Trade Agreement MAFTA in 2012. — Bernama
