Consolidated Data Analysis of Malaysia’s Kita Jaga Kita Movement

The Kita Jaga Kita movement, embodied with the hashtag #kitajagakita, represents a community-driven social campaign – the result of collective sentiments derived from individuals and local businesses losing their main source of income due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In late June 2021, the “White Flag Movement” emerged on social media in Malaysia as a direct response to the concerns of the community directly impacted by the economic fallout of the pandemic. As a further response and as a community effort, several websites and apps were developed to allow people within the community who were under lockdown to share information about the critical needs of individuals and families. This report has taken a snapshot of the publicly available data from the three main community-developed platforms namely crowdsourcing websites kitajaga.co and Sambal SOS, and the MyBendera application in the first two weeks of August 2021. The Crisis Management Centre has not been commissioned by any [...]

With Change Comes Opportunity

In a stirring speech to the nation, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. stamped his brand of leadership on the presidency, in his first act as the 46th president of the United State of America, it signaled several shifts.  Perhaps the weather was foreboding with snow falling before the ceremony that was later bathed in brilliant sunshine.  A hopeful metaphor of what promises to be a presidency at the confluence of multiple crises both domestic and abroad. The pageantry of procession that was inauguration day will be fast replaced by the stark reality that are the challenges faced by the nation.  If only to understand Malaysia’s 5th largest investor and 3rd largest trading partner better, Malaysian companies need to understand the priorities of the current President of the United States. While it’s unlikely that there will be immediate benefits to Malaysian business from the change in the White House, over the course [...]

A Need for Strategic Calm

Congratulations to Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob for taking up the mantle of the ninth prime minister of Malaysia. There is nothing normal about the situation; it could not have been scripted but it has kept the spectrum of media, mainstream and social, gripped.  The first order of business for the prime minister is the formation of a cabinet – a task usually completed in the glow of the “honeymoon” period of a newly minted prime minister.  The situation now does not afford such luxuries; the pandemic has created a reality that makes every decision critical and with very little margin for error. While Malaysians have become true connoisseurs of political intrigue, there is such thing as too much of a good thing. The months of slow burn politic crisis that threatened to become a constitution flash point distracted the collective focus on twin existential problems of this generation:  the global [...]

Malaysia Global Business Forum (MGBF) has moved to support the creative economy as the overall economy moves into a recovery phase following the COVID19 pandemic. As a step in the direction of normalcy, the MGBF has agreed to host the art exhibition “I Know You’re Somewhere So Far” by one of Malaysia’s leading young artists Mulaika Nordin.

The Malaysia Global Business Forum like many businesses has evolved extensively due to the pandemic. Many of our business matching and government engagement programs have shifted to the virtual space. We are pleased to announce that our first step [...]
