Talking Heads Episode 2: Lee Kim Meow & Goh Miah Kiat
Recommended
In the next episode we focus on the future of manufacturing within an area where Malaysia has had a historic and natural advantage: the rubber industry. Representing the industry we are pleased to have: Lee Kim Meow, the managing director of Top Glove, the largest rubber glove manufacture in the world and Goh Miah Kiat (CEO of Karex) the worlds largest condom manufacturer.
High standards of quality and consumer driven demand for more innovative products is evident in both the rubber and condom industry. Especially in the latter where the range of sizes, colours,textures and tastes has exploded. With the discovery of graphene a nano particle size material, condoms are reaching ever thinner specs. In the glove industry global health crises like H1N1 and now ebola thrusts gloves to the forefront. And these are both industries where we can proudly claim to be number one in the world
Tune in to find out how did these homegrown companies got to their number one positions, and with ever increasing competition and rising costs can they remain on top?
