ASEAN Change Management Conference 2025 Returns With Stronger Regional Voice
GENERAL KUALA LUMPUR, July 15 (Bernama) -- Building on the success of its impactful debut last year, the ASEAN Change Management Conference 2025 (ACMC) is set to return to Kuala Lumpur on Oct 1 and 2, bringing together leaders and practitioners from across Southeast Asia for bold leadership and a people-first focus. Organised by K-Pintar Sdn Bhd, this year's conference, themed 'Advancing Results, Change Done Right!', promises deeper regional engagement, stronger collaboration, and practical insights that go beyond theory into real-world transformation. K-Pintar Sdn Bhd, in a statement, said ACMC 2025 aims to position change not merely as a necessity, but as a skill to be honed. ACMC chairperson and K-Pintar chief executive officer (CEO), R. A. Thiagaraja, said ACMC 2025 is about equipping leaders and change practitioners to implement change with precision and long-term impact. 'In a region as diverse and dynamic as ASEAN, change cannot be imported; it must be interpreted. And this year, we're moving from awareness to action,' he said. He said ACMC 2025's speakers lineup includes experts from England, Poland, Africa, India, Singapore, and Malaysia, bringing global ideas together with local experience to talk about the real challenges in ASEAN. The conference centers on five topics of Trends and Innovation, Organsational Culture, Psychology and Neuroscience, Change Leadership and Fundamentals, and Digital Transformation that will be explored through masterclasses, interactive workshops, leadership dialogues and design sprints, offering participants practical tools they can apply in real-world settings. According to the statement, the National Institute of Public Administration (INTAN) has come on board as a strategic collaboration partner for ACMC 2025, bringing in the perspective of Malaysia's public sector. 'This partnership reflects the government's continued efforts to drive innovation and build a more forward-looking public service. It is in line with the values of Malaysia MADANI, which supports new ideas and changes that benefit the people,' the statement said.

New Council, TVET Institution To Empower Orang Asli Economy- DPM Zahid
GENERAL From Ahmad Erwan Othman ROTORUA (New Zealand), July 15 (Bernama) -- Malaysia plans to set up an Orang Asli Business Council and a dedicated Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institution to boost the economic standing of the indigenous community, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said today. Ahmad Zahid, who is also the Rural and Regional Development Minister, said the initiatives are part of five key proposals inspired by the success of New Zealand's Māori community in empowering their indigenous population. 'I will hold a special meeting with the Department of Orang Asli Development (JAKOA) to discuss the formation of the Orang Asli Business Council. 'We are also considering establishing a TVET institution focused on multiple skill areas to nurture technopreneurs from within the Orang Asli community,' he told a press conference after a roundtable session with Māori business leaders here. Ahmad Zahid, currently on a five-day working visit to New Zealand, spent the second day of his trip in Rotorua — a cultural and geothermal tourism hub about three hours from Auckland. He said the government also plans to create a dedicated microfinancing division under Amanah Ikhtiar Malaysia (AIM) to help Orang Asli women generate supplementary income. 'For Orang Asli mothers especially, we want to empower them to improve their family's financial standing. This is one of the lessons we've drawn from our visit here,' he said. Ahmad Zahid added that increasing access to higher education for Orang Asli youth remains a key focus.

Price Catcher App Helps Consumers Compare Prices, Manage Daily Expenses
KUALA LUMPUR, July 15 (Bernama) -- The Price Catcher mobile application, developed by the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN), is helping consumers compare prices of daily essentials conveniently at their fingertips. The app enables users to plan and manage their daily expenses by comparing prices of essential items across various supermarkets and selected retail premises nationwide. A Bernama check at several supermarkets around the federal capital found the prices displayed on Price Catcher to be consistent with actual prices at the premises, proving the app's reliability. However, slight price variations were observed at certain wet markets, especially in the evenings, as some traders lowered prices to clear out perishable stock. Despite its potential to help users save money amid the rising cost of living, the app remains underutilised, with many consumers still unaware of its existence. A user, Zaid Zufri, 42, said the app has been useful in helping him plan his daily spending more effectively. 'Before coming here, I checked the price of eggs and found a tray being sold for RM12.60 - the same price shown in the app. Imported onions were just RM2.90 per kg, which is cheaper compared to other places,' he said when met at a supermarket in Taman Maluri. For housewife Syahida Ariffin, 45, the app is especially helpful in tracking the prices of controlled items such as cooking oil and chicken, which tend to fluctuate. 'Price Catcher shows the lowest prices at nearby supermarkets and wet markets. I always check the app first before deciding where to shop, and I can save between RM15 and RM30 each time,' she said.
