The COVID-19 pandemic is a current global challenge that needs a collective response from everyone.
With COVID-19 cases continuing to surge and hospitals running into a shortage of personal protective equipment, hospitals are seeking for help in donating PPEs and other supplies for front liners. ON Semiconductor Malaysia Sdn Bhd is dedicated and committed to support the communities in which we operate, do business and live in.
We would like to take this opportunity by donating N95 masks, hand sanitizer, surgical mask, hair net and nitrile gloves to Hospital Tuanku Jaafar (Government Hospital Seremban).
As government authorities craft public health measures to battle the COVID-19 pandemic, including mandatory business closures, we call on all governments to specify semiconductor industry operations as “essential infrastructure” and/or “essential business” to allow continuity in operations of an industry that powers our global digital infrastructure and underpins vital sectors of the economy.

At any other time, the trading price of Brent Crude oil at US$ 26 per barrel would have triggered widespread concerns for a country so reliant on oil-related revenue. Such prices, which have been unheard of for the past 20 years,2 would have dominated headlines, boardroom discussions and kopitiam chatter. But not in 2020.
