SUMMARY:[Virtual] Export Administration Regulations & Implications for Malaysian Operations
DESCRIPTION:Join AMCHAM for an in-depth discussion on the sweeping new changes to the [Virtual] Export Administration Regulations on Monday\, 28 November 2022 from 8.30 AM – 10.00 AM. Nathan Bush of DLA Piper will share his insights and participate in a Q&A session moderated by Siobhan Das\, AMCHAM’s CEO. \nPlease note that these new regulations are open to comments up until December 12\, 2022. \nOn October 7\, 2022\, the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) released an interim final rule (Interim Final Rule) that implements several new export controls to restrict the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) ability to obtain certain advanced computing\, semiconductor and related manufacturing items from the United States and overseas sources that rely on US technology. \nThe BIS then took the unusual step of scheduling a public online briefing to discuss the interim rule. \nOperators of facilities in Malaysia would be particularly concerned because sweeping new changes to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) apply both to US-origin items and items developed or produced outside the United States that are the “direct product” of US technology\, software\, plant or manufacturing equipment: \nAs with many U.S. export control measures\, the ramifications of the new rules depend heavily on the precise classification of specific items (including goods\, software\, and technology) under the EAR. \nAlthough the scope of the new rules aims to focus precisely on a relatively “narrow” range of very advanced supercomputer and IC products and technology\, the new requirements with respect to these products are remarkably “deep” and far-reaching. \nSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS: To contribute a question to the Q&A please alert us and we will arrange for a short call with you before Friday\, 25 November\, or email to gr@amcham.com.my \nEvent Details: \nDate: 28 Nov 2022 (Monday) \nTime: 08.30am – 10.00am \nPlatform: MS Teams \nFor more information\, please email the AMCHAM Events team at events@amcham.com.my

SUMMARY:Launch of PayPal Report “Accelerating SME Digitalization in Malaysia
DESCRIPTION:AMCHAM in collaboration with PayPal will be hosting the Launch of PayPal’s latest report on “Accelerating SME Digitalization in Malaysia” on Tuesday\, September 20th\, 2022 from 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm (registration starts at 2:00 pm onwards) at the AMCHAM Executive Office. Join us for the inaugural launch of the report and a panel discussion featuring Mr. Fabian Bigar\, CEO\, MyDIGITAL Corporation\, Mr. Gopi Ganesalingam\, Senior Vice President of Ecosystem Development\, MDEC\, Ms. Raeesa Sya\, Founder & CEO\, Orkid Cosmetics (Halal Cosmetics) & Account Director\, Elixus Agency and Mr. Steven Chan\, International Head\, Government Relations and Public Policy\, APAC & LATAM. This session will be moderated by Siobhan Das\, CEO\, of AMCHAM. \nThe panel discussion is targeted at business executives\, IT professionals\, and government officials interested in SME digitalisation in Malaysia\, the challenges posed by it\, and how the public and private sectors could work together to overcome them. \nIn particular\, the discussion will focus on the following topics: \n\nOverview of Malaysian SME’s State of Digitalisation\nOverview of Malaysian SME’s Adoption of Digital Payments\nKey challenges Malaysian SMEs face\nFive key recommendations on accelerating SME Digitalisation\n\nSummary of Report \nMalaysian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of the Malaysian economy\, constituting around 97% of all business establishments in the country and employing nearly half of all workers in Malaysia in 2020. \nHowever\, during the COVID-19 pandemic\, the rapid shift of economic activities to digital channels and e-commerce was a major challenge for many SMEs. This\, coupled with the consequent lockdowns across Malaysia\, led the Malaysian Government to place digital transformation at the forefront of policy efforts to sustain and develop the Malaysian SME sector\, not least because Malaysian businesses also have been lagging behind their international counterparts in digital adoption. \nPayPal has conducted a survey of 1\,000 SME owners across Malaysia\, to examine the digital readiness of Malaysian SMEs\, analyse the progress of their digitalisation\, assess the impact that digitalisation has had on their ability to sell cross-border\, and identify solutions to address challenges as well as to capture new opportunities. \nFor more information\, please contact us at events@amcham.com.my

SUMMARY:Malaysia Digital Investment Series: Strategies in overcoming talent shortages
DESCRIPTION:Technology is always about doing more with less\, yet that combination is effective only if you pair technology with the right human skill. However\, it’s well documented that a global talent shortage is impacting the technology industry. This global shortage is due to many factors. For one\, the pandemic increased the pace of digital transformation\, creating a need for staff that can build and maintain digital infrastructures. Furthermore\, workers are leaving jobs en masse in the “Great Resignation.” \nAMCHAM in partnership with the Malaysian Dutch Business Council (MDBC) is organizing a sharing session with Mr Raymond Siva\, Senior Vice President\, Digital Investments of MDEC on key highlights and initiatives of the recently launched Malaysia Digital; and the corporate Panel Speakers from the co-organisers to share with us their strategies to overcome the shortage of talents. \nThis event is free for AMCHAM members but seats are limited and on a first-come\, first-serve basis. Book your spot today!. \nEVENT DETAILS \nDate: Thursday\, July 28 \nTime: 2:00pm – 5:00pm \nVenue: Bunga Raya Auditorium\, MDEC HQ
