Dear Valued Shareholders,
FY2013, by any measure, has been an extraordinary
year for us. This is despite the persistent sluggish
performance of the global economy that continues to
be mired by the slow economic recovery in the United
States that is further aggravated by the continuing
17-nation Eurozone debt crisis.
While uncertainties on the external front prevail, the
Malaysian economy hinges on domestic demand to
continue being the driver of growth. The initiative to
spur domestic growth is anchored on targeted fiscal
stimulus and the Economic Transformation Programme
(ETP), with its 131 Entry Point Projects (EPPs) and 60
Business Opportunities under the 12 National Key
Economic Areas (NKEAs). These have now become the
core drivers of our economic activities.
