Opportunities emerge for SMEs in Johor-Singapore SEZ: Maybank

The SEZ is expedcted to boost exchange of trade, labour and investments.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) stand to benefit from the opportunities arising from the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (SEZ), according to Maybank.

Speaking at the Maybank Johor-Singapore Access conference recently, Maybank country CEO for Singapore, Alvin Lee, noted how the bank will play a significant role in the growth of the Malaysia-Singapore corridor.

Lee said they aim to continue facilitating cross-border business services, solutions, and digital networks to support clients’ business needs.

Maybank had previously identified six key catalysts supporting a successful implementation of Johor-Singapore SEZ, including strong backing from the Malaysian King and both governments.

“This will further enhance the economic ecosystems of both countries, foster positive synergies across various sectors, and strengthen economic connectivity and cooperation,” said Lee.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
