Press Statement by Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng in Kuala Lumpur on 27 February 2014. <\/p>\n
Penang will launch the long-awaited Penang Business Process Outsourcing(BPO) hub next to the Penang International Airport to be opened by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at 10.30 am Saturday 1 March 2014. <\/p>\n
Malaysia and Penang\u2019s economy has shifted from extraction in the 1960s to industrialisation, from the export of raw commodities to manufacturing. In other words, Penang\u2019s economy was factor-driven by relying on basic commodities before being efficiency-driven by relying on manufacturing. Penang needs to be not only efficiency-driven but also innovation-driven in manufacturing, services and even the public sector. <\/p>\n
The key to future economic success is not an over-reliance on one sector but to seekconvergence of not only the manufacturing sector but also both the services and government sector. Services sector includes not only tourism, medical treatment and education but shared services such as finance, accounting and data processing.
\nIn seeking convergence, the government plays an important role as an enabler between manufacturing and services sector. Government must also invest and innovate. The government must invest in infrastructure, people, incentives and subsidies. The government must also innovate with new policies that stresses on:-<\/p>\n
\u2022 liberalisation of the existing rules and to reduce red-tape,
\n\u2022 divestment from non-core businesses or accept that the \u201cbusiness of government is to stay out of business\u201d,
\n\u2022 permit free and fair competition; and
\n\u2022 encourage human capital formation where human talent is now the new oil of the global economy.<\/p>\n
There is no doubt that Penang has the necessary conditions to realise our potential as one of the 31 future Business Processing Outsourcing(BPOs) hubs of the future as predicted by KPMG international accounting firm. Two and a half years ago, the state government embarked on a bold decision to focus on the services sector as they employ almost 100% local workers with high paying jobs. <\/p>\n
I did not expect the good response from the service sector as Penang has almost run out of Grade A office space. Top companies which recently opened this year include Air Asia which moved their IT, procurement and human resources shared services from Bangkok to Penang. Wilmar, the USD 17 billon global edible food has also opened their shared services hub in Penang last year. <\/p>\n
And Citigroup just opened their new process outsourcing for financial services. Employing more than 1,000 local employees to run their largest regional trade and cash processing centre for the transaction services business with an annual volume of 20 million transactions worth USD 5.8 trillion! <\/p>\n
Penang\u2019s successes in the services sector has even attracted First Solar, the world\u2019s leader in solar energy, to set up their shared services outsourcing hub not in their factory in Penang. These unexpected successes have caused Penang to run out of Grade A office space. That is why this BPO Hub that will be launched by the Prime Minister this Saturday is so important for Penang and Malaysia. <\/p>\n
In seeking convergence, what we need to do is to ensure a partnership of equals between the 3 sectors of manufacturing, services and government. In other words, a partnership with capital, labour, innovators with the government as an enabler. Penang\u2019s future prosperity depends on whether we can achieve convergence and thus our manufacturing, services and government sectors can be both efficiency-driven and innovation-driven.<\/p>\n
