MAEI

MALAYSIAN AMERICAN ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY (MAEI)

Objective

The Malaysian American Electronics Industry (MAEI) is an industry committee of AMCHAM representing our members in Malaysia’s strong Electrical and Electronics (E&E) industry. Since its inception in 1989, MAEI has served to create dialogue opportunities between the government and American E&E companies about ways to grow and upskill the industry, to highlight our members’ wide contributions to the Malaysian economy, and to advocate for regulatory changes needed to enhance Malaysia’s business environment and improve its competitiveness.

MAEI plays a key role in setting the Chamber’s advocacy agenda. MAEI members benefit from exclusive access to AMCHAM mailing lists and WhatsApp groups to share information and regulatory updates across multiple functions (Finance, Human Resources, Procurement, Facilities Management).

The Committee is chaired by Mike Snell, Corporate Vice President, Lam Research International, and co-chaired by Suresh Kumar, Vice President & General Manager, Intel Malaysia Design Center, and Ruban K Kanagaratnam, VP & GM Programmable Solutions Group, Intel Technology Sdn Bhd who have both volunteered to take on the mantle as Co-Chairs of MAEI and restructure it to meet the needs and demands of this critical industry sector for American investors and the growth of the country in the face of rising competition and increased regional importance.
