Meeting with SMIDEC

A meeting with Mr. Roslan Mohamed of the Small and Medium Industries Development Corporation (SMIDEC) will be held on Sunday, July 5, 2009 at Alor Star. I will bring along Batik Merbok team to visit this organisation and discuss how things of which SBDC is entrusted to can be arranged. This is an initial initiative taken by SBDC to develop rapport with SMIDEC as its endeavour to help small businesses in the Northern Region to prosper in their business activities.

Just a little bit about SMIDEC...

SMIDEC was established on 2nd May 1996. The establishment of SMIDEC was in recognition of the need for a specialised agency to further promote the development of Small and Medium Industries (SMIs) in the manufacturing sector through the provision of advisory services, fiscal and financial assistance, infrastructural facilities, market access and other support programmes.

SMIDEC strives to create resilient and efficient Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), able to compete in a liberalised market environment. The Corporation will promote SMEs to be an integral part of the country's industrial development capable of producing high value-added parts, components and finished products. SMIDEC will serve as the national focal point for the overall development of SMEs in the country.
