Foreword by Minister of Agriculture And Agro-Based Industry

I believe the publication of this inaugural Malaysia Brands Directory 2007-2008 is timely and appropriate in view of the current global economic climate.

The Malaysia Brands Directory 2007-2008 provides a dynamic and cost-effective platform for Malaysian businesses and entrepreneurs to promote their respective brands in terms of products & service branding, corporate branding, identity and trademark. It serves as an influential global business reference guide that connects international buyers with Malaysian producers, manufactures and suppliers of products & services through the strengthening of brand & product positioning.

I believe this publication will enhance brand presence as well as serve as an important and useful source of information for local exporters as well as overseas buyers.

I wish to extend my heartfelt congratulation to Axos (M) Sdn Bhd for successfully compiling such an extensive and comprehensive directory to promote Malaysian Brands locally and in the global market. It will be an even more challenging task to keep such a directory up-to-date, reflecting current available brands in Malaysia. I hope the publisher will continue with the excellent work in years to come.

Thank you.
