FMM In The News: THE EDGE MALAYSIA, April 20, 2026
Under the partnership, both parties will facilitate the exchange of technical knowledge, best practices and market insights to support the development of a more resilient manufacturing ecosystem.
FMM president Jacob Lee said the collaboration aims to enable Malaysian anufacturers to scale up and compete more effectively in the global market.
Beyond knowledge sharing, the enhanced partnership will focus on promoting smart manufacturing technologies and digitalisation systems, particularly to support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in their digital transformation journey.
It will also provide avenues for talent reskilling in emerging technologies and new industrial applications.
“Through this partnership, we envision creating greater momentum and enriching the Malaysia-Hong Kong Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing collaboration to support businesses on both sides,” Lee said.
Meanwhile, Deputy Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Sim Tze Tzin said the FMM-HKPC partnership reflects closer alignment between policy direction, industry needs and technical expertise.
He added that HKPC’s expertise in industrial engineering, smart manufacturing and productivity systems would complement Malaysia’s industrial transformation agenda under the New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030), which targets the development of 3,000 smart factories by 2030.
