Daikin Malaysia Empowers Malaysians with POAS – A New Era of Easy Ownership for Malaysian  Households 

In a move to make air conditioners easier to own for Malaysian  households, Daikin Malaysia has officially launched POAS, as known as “Pelan Mudah Milik”, a  customer-focused financing plan that simplifies the process of owning a Daikin air conditioner. 

As the leading air-conditioning brand in Malaysia, Daikin continues to innovate not only in  technology, but also in how it supports consumers in their everyday lives.

LG TRANSFORMS THE FUTURE OF HOME LIVING
WITH GROUNDBREAKING SUBSCRIBE MODEL

Elevate your lifestyle with the revolutionary premium technology
LG PuriCare™ ATOM-U Water Purifier.

LG Electronics Malaysia recently announced the strategic rebranding of LG Rent-Up to LG Subscribe at an exclusive event featuring Lee Zii Jia, Paris 2024 Olympics Badminton Men's Singles Bronze Medallist and LG Brand Ambassador. This milestone positions Malaysia as the first subsidiary to implement a comprehensive home appliance subscription business model – a customer-first approach that redefines how Malaysians access premium technology without the financial burden of ownership.

The rebranding marks LG’s strategic evolution from traditional ownership concept to a forward-thinking subscription model, embodying the company's “Life's Good” philosophy of making innovative technology more accessible to all Malaysians. Feedback from customers revealed a common point of confusion – many were uncertain if the term “rent” implied temporary use or a path to ownership.

According to Mr. Justin Choi, Managing Director of LG Electronics Malaysia, this valuable customer insight prompted LG Malaysia to follow the successful lead of Korea – and align with other subsidiaries including Thailand, India, and Singapore - by adopting the clearer, more intuitive name: LG Subscribe. 

“Following our Future Vision 2030 laid out globally, we aim to transform LG into a Smart Life Solution Company by connecting and enhancing customer experiences across all living spaces – from homes and commercial environments to mobility and virtual platforms. We’re moving beyond consumer electronics to deliver intelligent solutions that improve everyday life,” said Mr Justin. 

“Today marks a pivotal moment in our journey to redefine how Malaysians experience premium technology. With LG Subscribe, we reinforce our commitment to offering flexible, accessible solutions that cater to modern lifestyles – removing the financial barriers to enjoying cutting-edge appliances.”

LG Subscribe offers a robust line-up of 10 premium products including popular innovations such as LG PuriCare™ water purification systems, LG CordZero vacuum technology, LG ArtCool air conditioning, and LG WashTower laundry solutions. Subscribers enjoy professional maintenance service from 5 to 7 years and seamless integration with LG’s ThinQ smart technology – all with flexible payment options designed to fit diverse budgets.

Since its introduction, the service has gained remarkable traction, particularly among young families seeking premium appliances without significant upfront investments. This success reflects LG Malaysia’s commitment to listening closely to Malaysian consumers and developing solutions that address their evolving needs.

“As someone who values both performance and flexibility in my life, I appreciate how LG Subscribe makes premium products accessible to more Malaysians,” said Lee Zii Jia at the event.

“This innovative approach to home appliances mirrors the same forward-thinking mindset that athletes like myself strive for – always evolving and adapting to meet new challenges.”

In conjunction with the rebranding, LG Malaysia also launched their latest innovation in water purification – the LG PuriCare™ ATOM-U Water Purifier. This sleek addition to the LG line-up combines minimalist aesthetics with cutting-edge technology in a space-saving undersink design that complements modern living spaces while delivering pure, clean water. Beyond functionality, ATOM-U enhances both health and home aesthetics. 

“The combination of our LG Subscribe rebranding and the launch of the ATOM-U Water Purifier demonstrates our holistic approach to innovation - reimagining both products and how consumers access them. This philosophy will continue to guide LG as we develop solutions that make life better for Malaysians, and we’re excited about the innovations we’ll bring to market in the coming years,” said Justin Choi.

MIM Champions Responsible AI Through Regional Conference and Leadership Certification Launch

  1. From policy to practice: ASEAN leaders converge to close AI gaps and shape a sustainable future.

 

The Malaysian Institute of Management (MIM), with support from Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) Malaysia, convened a regional conference aimed at fostering closer ASEAN collaboration to strengthen the region’s digital economy through artificial intelligence (AI).

The event as part of MIM Crucial Conversations Series brought together policymakers, AI experts, industry leaders, as well as representatives from National AI Office (NAIO) Malaysia and Microsoft, to address digital policy gaps and prepare regional leaders for the rapid growth of artificial intelligence.

Titled “AI & Regional Collaboration: Strengthening ASEAN’s Digital Economy,” the hybrid conference featured expert-led plenaries and breakout tracks on key issues such as AI governance, regulatory convergence, digital sovereignty, and the emerging digital economy.

MIM Chairman Datuk Zainal Amanshah Zainal Arshad emphasized the importance of collaborative leadership to navigate the evolving AI landscape. “There is a need for ASEAN nations to enhance digital readiness and policy coherence to ensure inclusive and responsible growth in the AI era,” he said in his opening speech.

Delivering the keynote address, Shamsul Izhan Abdul Majid, Head of NAIO, called for responsible and people-focused AI adoption across ASEAN. He also highlighted Malaysia’s efforts to advance clear guidelines and regional cooperation.

A key highlight of the conference was the launch of the MIM AI Leadership Certification Programme, which he officiated. The programme offers a structured pathway for professionals to build the knowledge and confidence needed to lead responsibly in an AI-driven world. As leadership evolves alongside technological disruption, decision-makers are expected not just to understand AI, but to guide its ethical adoption and scale its impact across organisations.

Building on this, Kabenesh Eliathamby, MIM Chief Executive Officer said, “AI is more than a tool; it’s a strategic imperative. Its value lies in how leaders use it to elevate thinking, leadership, and impact. The future belongs to those who lead this transformation with purpose and courage”.

The event brought together local and international experts across two plenary sessions and industry-focused tracks, featuring speakers from NAIO, ISIS Malaysia, Microsoft, GX Bank, Ara Research AI, RiskAI Technologies GmbH, and the Cyfluence Research Centre in Germany. Discussions covered topics ranging from ethical AI policy and ASEAN’s digital economy to real-world applications such as influence operations and the region’s AI-ready tech stack. In closing, MIM Vice Chairman Azlan Abdullah reaffirmed the Institute’s commitment to preparing leaders for an AI-powered future.

The MIM Crucial Conversations Series is an ongoing initiative by MIM that brings together experts, leaders, and stakeholders to discuss pressing and emerging issues affecting Malaysia and the region. Through these dialogues, MIM fosters knowledge sharing, collaboration, and actionable insights to drive sustainable development and effective management practices.

KitKat® Showcases Borneo Single-Origin Dark Chocolate at International Cocoa Fair, Reaffirming Commitment to Malaysian Cocoa

Nestlé Malaysia brought the rich heritage of Malaysian cocoa to the global stage at the recent Malaysian International Cocoa Fair (MICF) 2025, held at the Sabah International Convention Centre (SICC), Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. As the Platinum Sponsor, Nestlé celebrated its cocoa journey, reaffirming its commitment to sustainability and innovation in cocoa-based products, including KitKat® Dark Borneo – a single-origin chocolate made exclusively with cocoa beans from Sabah and Sarawak. As part of this journey, Nestlé aims to source 10,000 metric tonnes of cocoa from local Malaysian farms by 2034, in an effort to revitalise Malaysia’s cocoa farming industry.

At the heart of this showcase was Nestlé’s partnership with the Malaysian Cocoa Board (MCB), which has played a pivotal role in shaping the future of Malaysian cocoa. Through the Nestlé Borneo Cocoa Initiative (NBCI) launched in 2023, Nestlé has expanded its Farmer Connect program to East Malaysia, equipping local farmers with improved cultivation methods. NBCI promotes regenerative farming through agroforestry, intercropping and soil health management, enhancing yields and boosting farm resilience while protecting the natural ecosystem.

Nestlé Malaysia’s commitment to ethical sourcing, halal-certified production and long-term sustainability extends across its cocoa supply chain. KitKat® Dark Borneo, developed under this partnership, reflects Malaysia’s expertise in cocoa cultivation, crafted with locally grown beans that embody the country’s deep-rooted traditions.

“With exports reaching RM15 billion in 2024, Malaysia’s cocoa processing sector continues to expand, primarily supported by imported cocoa beans. Local cocoa production, however, remains largely untapped, presenting significant opportunities – not only for industry growth but also for enhancing the livelihoods of farming communities, particularly in Sabah and Sarawak, where conditions are ideal for cultivating high-quality cocoa. Nestlé Malaysia is fully committed to working alongside local stakeholders to expand cocoa farming while upholding the highest standards of sustainability, traceability and human rights compliance. We are excited to transform the dedication of North Borneo’s farmers into innovative products that bring joy to Malaysians and our consumers worldwide, just as we have with KitKat® Dark Borneo – now introduced in a special ice cream edition that celebrates Malaysia’s cocoa heritage and promising future,” said Juan Aranols, Chief Executive Officer of Nestlé Malaysia.

Crafted with 100% responsibly sourced cocoa beans grown in the lush volcanic soil and tropical climate of Sabah and Sarawak, the KitKat® Dark Borneo is a single-origin chocolate that truly reflects Malaysia’s rich heritage in cocoa craftsmanship. It delivers a perfectly balanced flavour – not too bitter, not too sweet – as a result of the careful fermentation and sun-drying methods used for the cocoa beans. KitKat® Dark Borneo has also been honoured with the NielsenIQ (NIQ) BASES Breakthrough Innovation Award 2024, a recognition that highlights both the success of the product and the growing appreciation for single-origin chocolate among consumers.

“KitKat® has always been about indulgence and joy. With KitKat® Dark Borneo, we set out to create something that truly honours our roots. Made with 52% cocoa, it is carefully crafted to achieve a harmonious blend of bold richness and smooth texture - offering a distinctive taste that celebrates the essence of Malaysian cocoa and the dedication of farmers in Sabah and Sarawak. As we continue to innovate, we are expanding our use of local cocoa into other categories, and one such innovation is the launch of KitKat® Dark Borneo Ice Cream, featuring our signature wafer ice cream, coated in dark chocolate made from Borneo cocoa and topped with crushed KitKat® wafer bits,” said Carlota Casellas, Business Executive Officer of Nestlé Confectionery.

All KitKat® Dark products are proudly produced at Nestlé’s Halal-certified Chembong Industrial Complex in Negeri Sembilan, one of the largest Nestlé confectionery and Ice Cream plants in Asia. This facility serves as a pivotal export manufacturing hub, supplying Halal KitKat® products to ASEAN markets and other global destinations. The factory has implemented significant sustainability initiatives, including the introduction of a biomass boiler that operates using renewable energy sources such as oil palm empty fruit bunches and palm kernel shells, significantly reducing reliance on fossil fuels and advancing Nestlé’s goal of carbon-neutral manufacturing.
