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. With POAS, Daikin aims to  bridge the affordability gap by offering lower monthly instalment options and simplified approval  processes, so more families can enjoy cleaner, cooler, and more energy-efficient homes with lower  financial barriers. 

What is POAS? 

POAS consists of Peace of Mind, Optimal Comfort, Affordability and Satisfaction. With this plan,  customers can enjoy the key features:  

  1. Enjoy Affordable Instalments – Monthly payments from as low as RM52*
  2. Pay with Flexible Payment Plans and Tenures – Tailored plans that suit different household  budgets to reduce additional financial burden 
  3. High Quality Models Selection – Own air conditioners that equipped with Inverter and  Smart Control 
  4. Apply Easily and Quickly – With minimal documentation and fast approval
  5. Quality Installation and Periodical Cleaning Services – Professional services provided by  well-trained professions  

 *Terms and Conditions apply. 

Why It Matters: Comfort Shouldn't Be a Luxury 

Malaysia's hot and humid climate makes air conditioners more of a necessity than a luxury. Yet for  many households, the initial cost of high-quality air conditioning remains a barrier. With POAS,  Daikin is ensuring that more Malaysians can enjoy the benefits of: 

  1. Cleaner and healthier indoor air 
  2. Lower electricity bills with energy-saving technology 
  3. Seamless wireless control via Go Daikin app 
  4. Peace of mind with Daikin’s trusted quality and support 

 

“This plan is specially designed to make it easier for more people to own a Daikin Premium Inverter  Air Conditioner. With POAS, you can now enjoy flexible and affordable payment options. Whether  it’s through monthly credit card instalments or financing plans that match your budget even without  credit card required. It’s now easier to bring home one of our best air conditioners.” said Mr.  Lawrence Song, Managing Director of Daikin Malaysia Sales & Service Sdn Bhd. 

The initiative also encourages long-term thinking by allowing consumers to choose energy-efficient  models that contribute to lower electric bills over time, which is a win-win situation for both comfort  and sustainability. 

Customers can apply for POAS from participating Daikin Malaysia authorized dealers, selected  electrical and home appliance retailers, and online via estore.daikin.com.my. 

Daikin, A Brand That Listens and Evolves 

Daikin has long been known for bringing world-class air conditioning systems to homes and  businesses in Malaysia. With this new financing initiative, Daikin continues its mission to improve  lives not only through advanced technology, but also by offering solutions that truly meet the needs  of real people. 

The initiative is aimed for first-time buyers, upgraders, and families that are looking to equip their  homes with reliable, energy-efficient cooling solutions with less financial strain. Whether you're  furnishing a new home or replacing an older unit, Daikin's POAS offers an ideal solution that combines convenience, quality, and affordability.

LG TRANSFORMS THE FUTURE OF HOME LIVINGWITH GROUNDBREAKING SUBSCRIBE MODEL

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.
