Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak percaya pelaksanaan Komuniti Ekonomi ASEAN (AEC) menyediakan peluang lebih besar kepada sektor perusahaan kecil dan sederhana (PKS) tempatan untuk mengembangkan operasi di rantau Asia Tenggara. Perdana Menteri berkata, pelaksanaan AEC akan mengakibatkan liberalisasi lebih besar terhadap tarif dan sekatan bukan tarif dalam kalangan negara ASEAN. Sehubungan itu, beliau membe ritahu, sektor PKS tempatan perlu bersedia untuk merebut peluang yang ditawarkan menerusi pelaksanaan AEC.“Adalah penting bagi syarikat-syarikat PKS di negara ini mencapai ekonomi skala relatif atau mengemukakan usul bernilai tinggi. “Langkah itu akan menjadikan kita kekal berdaya saing berbanding sektor PKS di negara-negara ASEAN yang lain,” katanya ketika berucap membuka mesyuarat Majlis Pembangunan PKS Kebangsaan (NSDC) Ke-19 yang dipengerusikan beliau di bangunan Parlimen . Turut hadir Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Abdul Wahid Omar; Menteri Pendi dikan Tinggi, Datuk Seri Idris Jusoh; Menteri Perdagangan Antarabangsa dan Industri, Dato’ Sri Mustapa Mohamed; Menteri Kemajuan Luar Bandar dan Wilayah, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob dan Menteri Pertanian dan Industri Asas Tani, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek. Tidak ketinggalan Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan, Datuk Hamzah Zainudin; Menteri Pelancongan dan Kebudayaan, Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz; Menteri Sumber Manusia, Datuk Seri Riehard Riot Jaem; Ketua Setiausaha Negara, Tan Sri Dr. Ali Hamsa; Gabenor Bank
Negara, Tan Sri Dr. Zeti Akhtar Aziz serta Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif SME Corp. Malaysia, Datuk Dr. Hafsah Hashim. Pelancaran AEC yang bertujuan memperkukuhkan kerjasama ekonomi serantau dijadualkan berlangsung pada 31 Disember ini. Sementara itu, Najib berkata, Perjanjian Perkongsian Trans-Pasifik (TPPA) memberi peluang kepada Malaysia bagi menilai kedudukannya dalam pasaran, kekuatan serta kemampuan untuk bersaing. “TPPA dijangka dilaksanakan dua tahun lagi dan perjanjian itu bakal membawa banyak manfaat serta cabaran,” jelasnya. Perdana Menteri turut berbangga dengan pertumbuhan memberangsangkan sektor PKS walaupun berdepan dengan kenaikan kos akibat pengurangan subsidi, pelaksanaan dasar gaji minimum serta cukai barang dan perkhidmatan (GST).
Menurut beliau, sektor PKS berjaya mengekalkan prestasi pertumbuhan yang lebih baik daripada pertumbuhan ekonomi keseluruhan. “Sektor PKS berkembang pada kadar purata tahunan 8.6 peratus berbanding pertumbuhan purata Ke luaran Dalam Negara Kasar (KDNK) keseluruhan sebanyak 5.4 peratus dalam tempoh 2012 hingga 2014,” katanya. Najib memberitahu, keanjalan sektor PKS dalam menyesuaikan operasi mereka mengikut perubahan masa adalah satu perkara yang boleh dibanggakan. Perdana Menteri seterusnya me lancarkan aplikasi rasmi SME Corporation Malaysia (SME Corp) selepas mesyuarat berkenaan. Aplikasi yang boleh dimuat turun melalui Google Play dan AppStore itu mengandungi maklumat tentang program serta skim bantuan kewangan yang disediakan kerajaan untuk PKS.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the percentage change through time in the cost of purchasing a constant “basket” of goods and services representing the average pattern of purchases made by a particular population group in a specified time period. The “basket” is of an unchanging or equivalent quantity and quality of goods and services, consisting of items for which there are continually measurable market prices over time. Changes in the costs of items in the basket are therefore due only to “pure” price movements, i.e. price movements that are not associated with changes in the quality and / or quantity of the set of consumer goods and services in the basket.

Growing up in a large 300 acre estate in Kajang, Selangor where his father was the manager, Khadmudin Bin Mohamed Rafik spent his early years observing his father do business. From an early age he learned how to look for business opportunities. As he grew up he became interested in law and told himself he would be a lawyer when he grew up. But as in the case of most successful businessmen, he had within himself a spirit of entrepreneurship waiting to awaken and do great things.By the age of 21, Khadmudin was already making RM2,000 to RM3,000 a month trading in the coconuts from his father's estate. Although this gave him a great sense of achievement, he soon yearned to be independent, to build
The Police Hero
how own success story. At the age of 23, he decided to venture out into the world. His uncle who was in the Police Force suggested that he join the Police Force to gain experience and exposure. Having been drawn to law as a young boy, Khadmudin leapt at the opportunity and was appointed the rank of Probationary Inspector in the Special Branch. Little did he know of the heroic deeds he would be engaging in soon.When he joined the Police Force in 1976, it was during the height of the communist insurgency. The Perak Chief of Police had just been murdered by the communists in front of a school in Ipoh. Nobody wanted to be posted to Perak which was at the heart of communist activity. In the Special Branch, only 15 out of 126 officers volunteered to go to Perak. Khadmudin was one of them. He was involved in special operations throughout in the jungles of Perak, fighting against communists who were infiltrating the orang asli communities. Khadmudin's first contact with the enemy was in a mining field in Gopeng during Ops Sitiawan, when his troops were engaged in a firefight with the communists. It was during these deadly situations that Khadmudin learned a vital life-changing lesson - focus was the number one factor that separated success from failure. He received numerous commendations and awards during his tenure in the Police Force including the Pingat Pertabalan Sultan Perak and Pingat Jasa Kebaktian. In 1981 he was promoted to Area Inspector and was transferred to Taiping. In the subsequent years he rose through the ranks, becoming a Prosecution Officer and Senior Investigating Officer before becoming the Head Prosecutor in Batu Pahat in 1991.It was during the height of his career in the Police Force that his entrepreneurial spirit awoke again. He wished to provide a better income for his family, and so started to do what he used to in his younger days - look for business opportunities. He found out about a textile producing company where a good friend was working which was failing and was looking for a buyer. He bought over the company and installed his friend as the General Manager to help him manage the business. His General Manager remains with him until today. It was only in 1995 that he took up his optional retirement from the Police Force after 20 years of service. In 1996, he was able to finally actively participate in the running and building of his company.When he first took over the company, it was basically a new start, as the business had run aground. Starting with a staff of 10 from the previous company, Khadmudin planned his business growth with careful consideration. He focused on achieving a minimum target of 10% growth annually and diversified his marketing. With the focus and determination that he honed over his impressive career he started to drive his business upwards. As his operations grew, he soon had to look for financing in order to achieve his growth targets. He chose SME Bank over other banks due to the favourable rates offered by SME Bank. The different types on financing available was also a decisive factor for him.In 1997 when he badly needed to replace his ageing machinery, he was given a financing package totalling RM1.5 million to bring in new equipment from Germany. During those days of economic downturn, he was naturally worried about whether he would be able to meet the financing obligations. But his strategy of diversifying his markets paid off well, and his company was able to do quite well even through the economic downturn of 97-98 and achieve his target of 10% growth.Maple Tricot Industries Sdn Bhd supplies textiles to the local and export markets, they sell to large regional manufacturers of branded apparels, they sell fabrics to local garment makers large and small, they supply to the government and GLCs on tenders, and even to small time fabric traders. Today the company boasts of close to a hundred workers running his facilities that are able to produce 100 + tons of fabric a month, and have even started to produce fabrics for the automotive industry. With his legendary focus, Khadmudin now looks forward to even higher peaks of achievement.
