The Sun03-05-2025

PROTON NEW ENERGY TECHNOLOGY (PRO-NET) is accelerating its efforts to make sustainable mobility more accessible across the country. Responding to the rising demand for Proton e.MAS vehicles, PRO-NET is expanding its dealership network, building on the 31 outlets already in operation and appointing an additional nine dealerships. This brings the total number of appointed dealers to 40, reflecting the strong nationwide interest and growing support for the brand.
The expansion is intended not merely to increase the brand's presence, but to deepen trust and ensure that the Proton e.MAS experience is accessible to more Malaysians. With the Proton e.MAS 7 already attracting significant attention nationwide, PRO-NET is focused on encouraging greater confidence among consumers considering the switch from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric alternatives.
The dealer network comprises dedicated sales and service centres, each purposefully designed to deliver a seamless customer experience. From the initial handover of the vehicle to ongoing support in aftersales care and EV charging assistance, PRO-NET aims to make EV ownership easy, reliable, and worry-free for Malaysian drivers.
To further support this mission, PRO-NET is actively seeking passionate and forward-thinking business partners to join its network across key locations in Malaysia. Recruitment is currently underway for dealers in areas including Bangsar, Ampang, Kepong, Sungai Buloh, Subang, Sunway, Klang, and Cyberjaya in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur; Bayan Lepas in Penang; Sitiawan and Teluk Intan in Perak; Melaka City in Melaka; Kulai, Tebrau, Iskandar Puteri, and Skudai in Johor; and Sandakan and Tawau in Sabah.
According to Zhang Qiang, Chief Executive Officer of PRO-NET, the expansion of the dealer network is part of a broader vision to create not just retail outlets but community hubs where Malaysians can gather, learn, and experience the future of mobility. He stated that PRO-NET welcomes passionate and forward-thinking partners who are eager to be part of this transformative journey.
Joining the Proton e.MAS dealership network represents more than a business opportunity; it signifies becoming part of a nationwide movement aimed at inspiring confidence, fostering change, and leading the electric vehicle revolution in Malaysia.

Malaysia, UAE enhance cooperation in talent mobility, workforce upskilling and AI readiness

PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have agreed to enhance bilateral cooperation in areas of talent mobility, workforce upskilling, and artificial intelligence (AI) readiness in response to the rapid evolution of global technology and labour markets. The Ministry of Human Resources (KESUMA) said the agreement was reached during an official meeting between Malaysia's Minister of Human Resources Steven Sim Chee Keong and UAE Minister of Human Resources and Emiratisation, Dr Abdulrahman Abdulmannan Al Awar, in Dubai. 'This meeting marks a pivotal step in strengthening future-oriented strategies and partnerships focused on digital labour policies, labour migration, and education transformation,' the ministry said in a statement today. It said the UAE, currently ranked third in the world for AI talent readiness, also shared insights on its successful integration of AI across key sectors such as finance, biotechnology, and public services. 'The UAE minister also emphasised the need for agile education systems and adaptable workforces to address the impact of AI on both manual labour and professional sectors,' it said. KESUMA said Malaysia acknowledged the UAE's leadership in this area and reaffirmed its commitment to preparing its workforce for the AI era. The ministry also highlighted the 2024 TalentCorp study on the Impact of AI, Digitalisation, and the Green Economy on Employment, which identified 10 high-risk sectors likely to face job displacement or transformation. 'This study now serves as the foundation for Malaysia's national strategy on workforce reskilling and upskilling to ensure readiness for a rapidly evolving job landscape,' the ministry said. As a gesture of international collaboration, the UAE has invited Sim to attend the Abu Dhabi Dialogue in February 2026, which will focus on ethical migration, workers' rights, and cross-border policy alignment. Malaysia and the UAE have enjoyed diplomatic relations since 1983, built on shared values and strong economic cooperation. The UAE is Malaysia's second-largest trading partner in the Middle East and hosts a significant Malaysian expatriate community, 13 per cent of whom hold the UAE Golden Visa.

Malaysian Telcos Told To Rethink Strategies Amid Market Saturation -- Report

BUSINESS By Anas Abu Hassan KUALA LUMPUR, June 9 (Bernama) -- Malaysian telecommunication companies (telcos) are advised to move beyond traditional tactics and design bold, digital-first strategies that resonate with today's discerning consumers to win in the mature and evolving domestic market, according to a study. A report from GrowthOps Asia noted that the nation's telecommunications industry is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by market convergence, the nationwide 5G rollout, regulatory shifts, and major infrastructure investments. The report, entitled "Winning in Malaysia's Mature Telco Market", revealed that the country's telco market is now highly saturated and competitive, with mobile connections exceeding 129 per cent of the population. 'We are at a pivotal moment in the telco market, where consumers are no longer just looking for connectivity - they want a single, inclusive provider that delivers a suite of services and meaningful value-adds. 'The players who pair innovative products with sharp, relevant go-to-market strategies will be the ones that win," said GrowthOps Malaysia general manager Chris Greenough in a statement to Bernama today. The report also stated that the market is polarised with CelcomDigi Bhd emerging as the dominant leader, holding an estimated 40 per cent market share following its 2022 merger, while Maxis Bhd is positioned as a premium provider, emphasising network quality and loyalty perks. In addition, a cluster of challengers like U Mobile Sdn Bhd and Unifi by Telekom Malaysia Bhd are competing aggressively on value and plan innovation. "Consumer perceptions revealed that while network quality and price remain key decision factors, sentiment towards loyalty rewards programs could create an industry-wide opportunity for differentiation.
