U.S. Trade Engagement on U.S./Russia Sanctions [VIRTUAL]
2022-03-29 09:00 - 10:30
In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, countries all over the world began to impose fresh sanctions against Russia including the U.S. and Singapore. The restrictions consist of two parts: (1) significant financial sanctions on a range of Russian financial institutions and individuals, and (2) far-reaching export controls imposing stringent license requirements and licensing policies, and limited license exception availability, for exports of a wide range of items to Russia.
Amidst the new and ever-changing sanction announcements, it is important to understand these commercial and financial penalties and its implications for businesses. Especially as key parts of the sanctions, like the new foreign direct product rules, can affect everyday operations for businesses moving forward.
AmCham Singapore and AmCham Malaysia are delighted to partner with the U.S. Department of Commerce to host a briefing on the recently imposed sanctions against Russia, including how these sanctions may impact businesses operating in the region.

2021-11-30 14:00 - 17:00 | InterContinental Kuala Lumpur, InterContinental Kuala Lumpur, 165 Jalan Ampang, , Kuala Lumpur, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, 50450, Malaysia
AMCHAM played a particularly crucial role in advocacy during the last two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, which saw an unprecedented need for companies to not only communicate to the Government issues being faced on the ground, but also to obtain clarification from the government on the evolving regulations and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
Moving into 2022, AMCHAM is seeking proactive methods of advocacy. In doing so, the Chamber will rely on its members to identify important regulatory issues that impact operations and foreign direct investments in Malaysia. Proactive advocacy will also involve the development of white papers to share with Government officials on the types of policies that can further help grow Malaysia’s economy and foreign investment opportunities.
Join this half-day workshop which aims to draw upon the experience and expertise of members holding Government Relations and Public Affairs roles within their companies in identifying challenges faced in government policy and regulations, and to craft the Chamber’s position on pertinent issues. This will help to ensure consistency and synchronization of its messaging to members’ and US corporate lines.

Driving Energy Transformation – A Roadmap Towards 100% Renewable Energy
2021-11-09 14:30 - 15:30
An AMCHAM Spotlight Presented by Ditrolic Solar
Climate change is an urgent issue and the time to act on climate change is NOW. Every government, corporation and individual should assume leadership, re-assess their policy, the way business is conducted and daily actions. Every action count and to make significant changes, we should aim high enough to achieve the desired result.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations provide a framework for international cooperation to achieve a sustainable future for the planet.
In this webinar, Ditrolic Solar will share briefly about how renewable energy contributes towards ESG policy and whether it is possible to achieve 100% renewable energy for your organisation. Discussions will include the energy procurement strategies currently available in the market and the pros and cons of each strategy. A global case study will also be highlighted to have an overview on how top companies commit to their sustainable initiatives.

GATE 40: Forty Minutes with Shakilla Shahjihan, Abbott
2021-11-03 15:15 - 15:55
We hope you enjoyed being part of the GATE program. In an effort to increase your ability to network and interact with the speakers and your cohort, AMCHAM is extending our GATE40 sessions.
At a “GATE 40” session our guest speakers and panelists are giving to you the opportunity to have more meaningful interaction with them that would have been possible in a live event.
On 5 November, join one of our speakers from Session 4, Shakilla Shahjihan, Divisional Vice President, Government Affairs, Asia Pacific & Japan at Abbott Laboratories. This opportunity is designed to complement the main GATE program by allowing cohort members the chance to discuss any topics of interest among themselves as well as our guest speaker in an informal setting.
We are arranging these with other speakers and panelists so be sure to keep and eye out for these opportunities to build your network.
Participation is limited to 10 pax per session and on a first come, first served basis. Registration is compulsory so that we can keep the participants informed and updated.
We hope you will take this opportunity to meet each other and ask Shakilla any questions that you missed or on topics you wanted to dig deeper.
