ANNUAL REPORT 2020

Chairman’s Foreword

I

am delighted to share my thoughts with all of our members via this annual report, as I look back at the achievements of the past 12 months in my first year as the Chairman of the BMCC. 2020 will certainly remain in memory as the year of the COVID-19 pandemic, marking the start of a period of unprecedented challenges that tested many of us, yet magnified the depths of our resilience. Nearly two years into the pandemic, I am optimistic we are now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel as large swathes of the population become vaccinated and the economy reopens.

2019 was an outstanding year for the BMCC and we had looked towards more expansive plans for 2020.

Unfortunately, as the global pandemic unfolded, some of our initiatives were no longer feasible and we had to find alternative means to serve our members – many of whom relied on us even more during such uncertain times for prompt government updates as well as collective representation and advocacy. We pivoted quickly, shifting most of our presence online,within a month of the lockdown, we had successfully organised our first webinar.

Working tirelessly, the BMCC organised 48 events in 2020 – eight more than in 2019. Forty-five were held virtually, and many were organised in collaboration with our market-leading members, who continued to see benefits in working with the Chamber. We also kept up active engagement with various Ministries and government-linked bodies, maintaining our strategic role as the voice of our business community. As a testament to the value we continued to offer members, we managed to keep 82% of existing members and even added 30 new members despite the pandemicstricken market conditions.

Especially noteworthy for 2020 was the BMCC Webinar Series on the Impact of COVID-19, a series of 11 webinars especially developed to address various issues faced by the business community arising from the pandemic.

The BMCC also successfully delivered its first-ever digital conference, the BMCC - Standard Chartered Bank: Virtual Green Conference 2020, aimed at addressing key concerns regarding the state and future of the green economy. The event, organised in collaboration with Standard Chartered Bank Malaysia and supported by the British High Commission Kuala Lumpur, attracted close to 300 participants from diverse sectors.

As physical networking activities ground to a halt, the Executive Team and myself ramped up efforts to conduct virtual one-to-one meetings with members, which allowed us to stay updated on their situation and offer networking and advocacy support where required. In October, I hosted my first Chairman’s Town Hall virtually.

While it was disappointing not to greet everyone in person, I was grateful for

the opportunity to meet and dialogue with BMCC members. I was also able to engage with Johor members in a virtual roundtable in November.

On the government relations side, some of the highlights for the year included a virtual roundtable between the Minister of Finance Malaysia and Sterling Members as well as a virtual roundtable with the Secretary General of the Ministry of Works (Construction Sector), which provided avenues for our members to engage with policymakers and highlight their challenges during the pandemic.

The Chamber also invited the British High Commissioner to Malaysia, His Excellency Charles Hay MVO to a breakfast talk on the EU exit in February, and to a virtual roundtable in April where he dialogued with several UK member companies and shared the High Commission’s COVID-19 efforts as well as the Department for International Trade’s role in supporting UK businesses in Malaysia. In addition, we hosted Natalie Black CBE, Her Majesty’s Trade Commissioner for Asia Pacific in a special webinar about trade and investment opportunities in Malaysia and the Asia Pacific.

Taking over as Chairman of the Chamber during one of its most challenging periods has left me even prouder of everything we have achieved. The Executive Team demonstrated that a small but nimble and creative team can achieve just as much with perseverance and hard work.

I look forward to continuing our close working relationship and delivering more value for our members.

Last but not least, I would like to thank our Patrons, Board of Directors, our Sponsors and Partners, the British High Commission Kuala Lumpur, the Department for International Trade, and all our members for your continued support. As we ease out of the pandemic, let us join hands to reboot and rebuild the economy towards a brighter future for business.

CEO’s Foreword

L

ooking back on 2020, I recall opening the year resplendently with members at the BMCC’s New Year’s Drinks on 15 January, filled with excitement for a bright year ahead.

That was, of course, before COVID-19 blindsided the whole world and changed the entire outlook for us. By March, Malaysia was in lockdown and most of our plans were derailed. As we re-strategised our operations, we stuck to our core values and never lost sight of putting the interests of members first. We identified three key priorities for 2020 – Members Engagement; Continued Operations; Industry Advocacy and Government Engagement – and reframed our initiatives to fit the virtual environment we had to quickly adapt to.

In hindsight, all the uncertainties and challenges of 2020 only encouraged more out-of-the-box thinking within the team and sharpened our focus to deliver our plans successfully. As many businesses slowed operations down, we had more opportunities to spend time on one-to-one conversations with members to understand their priorities and challenges better, explain our offerings and customise our services to meet their business needs. I am proud to say that arising from such opportunities, we now have a stronger network of members passionate about the Chamber and willing to support our work.

It is important to mention here that collaborations proved to be the pivotal factor in the Chamber’s continued success throughout 2020: • Collaboration with members – Our members became our sponsors, partners, content providers and speakers and contributed hugely to the many well-received digital webinars and forums we organised.

• Member-to-member collaboration – Our Committees became more active as the Chamber strengthened its role as a platform to discuss, share best practices and identify solutions to brave the pandemic.

• Collaboration with government agencies – Our stakeholders in the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA), InvestKL, Invest Selangor

and TalentCorp Malaysia were ever ready to work with us to help members solve their operational issues and challenges. The BMCC was also invited to participate in government dialogues, enabling the collective voice of our members and UK investors to be heard.

• Collaboration with international chambers of commerce and other partners in the ecosystem – We exchanged information, supporting each other and joined forces to engage the government and advocate in the interest of investors to ensure a louder voice for the business community.

Despite COVID-19 affecting the whole world, we witnessed many businesses staying resilient. In the same spirit, my trade services team and I continued to promote Malaysia to more than 200 UK exporters who showed interest in this country as a destination for trade, organising business matching meetings and sharing Malaysia’s distinct advantages at the UK Chambers’ trade webinar for ASEAN and Malaysia.

We thank our colleagues at the Department for International Trade for the excellent work synergy that allowed us to continue our mandate to strengthen UK-Malaysia trade.

As a team, we grew by leaps and bounds in terms of our internal strengths and executional capabilities as we braved the volatilities of 2020. This experience enabled us to identify trending areas important to our members, namely digitalisation, climate action, healthcare, diversity and inclusion, and education. Moving forward, we want to add more value by creating additional networks that align with members’ areas of interest. We will also work towards strengthening our relationship with government agencies and our advocacy for the business

community with regard to the National Economic Recovery Plan, as well as supporting UK investors’ interests in Malaysia. Additionally, we will continue with our mandate as the trade services delivery partner – positing Malaysia for trade and as a strategic gateway to ASEAN, working with the Department for International Trade to reduce barriers of doing business in Malaysia.

My sincere appreciation goes out to our Chairman, Abrar, Deputy Chairman, Andrew and fellow Board members, His Excellency Charles Hay MVO and colleagues at the High Commission, our valued members as well as our key stakeholders in government agencies who stood by us through thick and thin, readily available to guide and support our work in the interest of our members, UK investors and stakeholders at large.

I am truly grateful for everything that the BMCC has managed to achieve in 2020. It has been an honour to lead the Chamber during this challenging period and see it continue to thrive.

Kudos to my excellent team for their can-do spirit, resilience and agility, and for successfully upholding the good reputation of the Chamber despite such unpredictable operating conditions. Together we proved that a small team can achieve big dreams!

Value of Membership

D

uring this year of many challenges on the operating front, the BMCC has tried our level best to deliver our services, at times putting in double the effort and experimenting with novel approaches to get things done, so that we could keep our

commitments to our members and stakeholders. Therefore, nothing satisfies us more than to receive positive feedback and words of encouragement on our work from appreciative members. Here are some of the commendations we have received:

“Membership of the BMCC has provided BAE Systems with

“In these challenging times, it is critical to have industry

a valuable platform to enhance our profile, market awareness and business growth plans.”

advocacy and a network of peers with similar interests to drive excellence in Malaysian business while maintaining proper trade channels. The BMCC is the perfect forum to serve such functionalities. Beyond this, the elevated response during the COVID-19 outbreak has been impressive. I am proud to be an active member of the BMCC and am pleased that Smith+Nephew has strong representation through this chamber now and into the future.”

Natasha Pheiffer Managing Director Asia, BAE Systems

“I have found it to be most advantageous for our school to be a member of the BMCC. For example, the Education Committee has enabled our concerns as member Headteachers to be heard directly by Ministry of Education leaders. Indeed, these leaders have attended our meetings in person and engaged in meaningful discussions. This level of direct contact is rare and greatly appreciated.

At an individual school level, the BMCC has been willing to actively support the school and use their influence with a Government Department to successfully resolve a longstanding issue that was preventing a number of our teachers from taking up their roles. I am most grateful for this support that ensured our students can be taught by their teachers as well as the relief this gave for the teaching families concerned. I do not believe that this outcome would have been achieved without the intervention of the BMCC.” Matthew Brown Headmaster / Senior Leadership Team, Epsom International School

Mark Arthun Managing Director & Site Leader, Smith+Nephew

“BMCC keeps us abreast of the latest developments on government updates, initiatives and best practice sharing for its members. My personal favourite has always been the webinars on current issues with distinguished panellists and industry experts. These webinars provide insights on a wide range of topics which are beneficial in managing our day-to-day business operations especially during the times of crisis. BMCC advocates on behalf of its members at all levels of government, working to ensure that members’ interests are at the forefront. The true value and importance of what it means to be a BMCC member really came when the COVID-19 pandemic began. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to BMCC’s CEO, Ms Jennifer Lopez for her leadership and remarkable support to BMCC members.”

Vignesh Baboo Group Chief Human Resources Officer, Chemopharm Group of Companies

“We joined BMCC as an SME member and have definitely benefited from the networking platforms, events and committees. During the pandemic, the team at BMCC have not stopped working and organised numerous valuable talks, events and round-table discussions virtually. We thank the team at BMCC for constantly engaging with us. Thank you.”

Impact of COVID 19 on the BMCC

I

n 2020, the BMCC was looking to build upon a very successful 2019. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic put paid to a large number of our intended plans. The Chamber, like many other organisations, had to act quickly to re-think our deliverables

and activities for the year. Despite the initial setback, we managed to pivot and navigate our way forward, combining excellent teamwork with agility and resilience. By moving most of our activities online, the BMCC was able to remain active during this period. We put our focus on three areas of priority:

Member Engagement

Business Continuity

Industry Advocacy & Government Relations

Engaging Our Members – Our Most Important Stakeholders During such unprecedented times, understanding and responding to members’ needs became the Chamber’s utmost priority.

Some of our engagement initiatives to achieve these objectives included:

Questionnaire on the Impact of the Movement Control Order (MCO) When MCO 1.0 was implemented, the Chamber sent out a questionnaire to members to gauge the immediate implications to their business operations.

Upon receiving feedback, the Executive Office followed up with 1-to-1 calls to the respondents, to understand the highlighted issues better and discuss how the Chamber could support them. This support included connecting members with the relevant government agencies, i.e. the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) and the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA), to assist them in their application to operate during the MCO.

Survey on the Impact of COVID-19 on Businesses We conducted a survey to understand the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on members. From the survey findings, we were able to: •

Identify topics to design and deliver the BMCC Webinar Series on the Impact of COVID-19.

•

Provide feedback to MITI and MIDA on how the pandemic had affected our members’ business operations and finances.

BMCC Webinar Series on the Impact of COVID-19 Eleven webinars were organised under the BMCC Webinar Series on the Impact of COVID-19 based on topics highlighted by members. Most of these were delivered in collaboration with BMCC members who provided subject matter experts as speakers in the events. Feedback garnered showed that the audience found the content and insights invaluable as employers and employees alike did their best to evolve and adapt to meet the rapid changes in the business and work environments.

Daily COVID-19 Alerts to Members As part of our business continuity plan, the BMCC issued daily COVID-19 alerts to keep our members abreast of the latest Government updates on SOPs and developments regarding the MCO, as well as share knowledge and best practices from our members. We received positive feedback from members indicating that these alerts were helpful as quick one-stop reference points.

One-to-One Virtual Meetings with Members The CEO and Chamber staff conducted a total of 194 one-to-one virtual catch-up meetings with members in 2020 to keep updated on their situations and understand their needs. The findings from these meeting were used to plan initiatives benefiting members at large.

Our new Chairman Abrar A. Anwar took the opportunity to highlight the Chamber’s efforts to continue our activities and plans during the pandemic at these sessions. He also sought members’ feedback on how they were coping and what the Chamber could do to further our support for them.

BMCC Digital Platforms as Effective Communication Channels Through our weekly e-newsletter published every Monday and active social media platforms, we were able to constantly keep our members updated on happenings in the Chambers, members’ news and government insights. The digital platforms also provided branding and profiling opportunities for our members, where they could promote their marketing campaigns, success stories and their own programmes to the wide BMCC network.

Other Happenings of 2020 UK Delegation to Sarawak, 7-9 January 2020 The BMCC was represented by CEO Jennifer Lopez in a UK delegation to Sarawak led by H.E. Charles Hay MVO, the British High Commissioner to Malaysia, which also comprised representatives from Department for International Trade and the Scottish Development International. Focus meetings were held with Datuk Patinggi Abang Abdul Rahman Zohari, Sarawak Chief Minister; Datuk Lee Kim Shin, Sarawak Minister of Transport; and Sarawak Economic Development Corporation (SEDC) Chairman and CEO.

Addressing BREXIT To shed more light on Brexit, the BMCC organised a Breakfast Talk in February 2020 with H.E. Charles Hay MVO, the British High Commissioner to Malaysia. At the event, H.E. Charles Hay talked about the new UK government and its belief that the economic benefits of departing from EU law would eventually offset any hypothetical problems that come from introducing friction into trade between the UK and the EU. He also emphasised the UK and Malaysia remain excellent trading partners and that Malaysia is the UK’s second largest trading partner in ASEAN with bilateral trade worth about £5 billion a year. Also covered were the topics of climate change, businesses and future of borders and movement of people. The event concluded with a fire-chat session with H.E. Charles Hay.

Other Partnerships with Members BMCC members continued to see our excellent business networks and resources as valuable membership benefits, tapping on them to organise joint programmes with the Chamber.
