Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of Malaysia's economy, contributing 48% of gross domestic product (GDP) and providing seven million jobs
However, almost 960,000 SMEs in Malaysia have been affected over the past two years – some businesses even went bankrupt during this period. Nevertheless, seeing how crucial SMEs are to the nation's economy, it's important for them to rise and be competitive once again.
In an effort to help equip SME owners, Berita Harian and REV Media Group have partnered to launch the Forum Perniagaan PKS BH 2021
