ForewordWelcome to Invest Malaysia 2015. With 66 companies involved, this year’s Invest Malaysia – its eleventh series – is set to be the most productive and rewarding one yet.

Repeating last year’s theme – “ASEAN’s Multinational Marketplace” – Malaysia is strategically located at the heart of ASEAN, offering significant opportunities both as an investment destination and as a gateway to ASEAN, home to over 620 million people. The companies on showcase further underscore the resilience and diversity of Malaysia and the region’s rapidly growing marketplace.

Malaysia is on course to achieve its national economic ambition of becoming a high-income nation by 2020. Looking ahead, future growth is further underpinned by Malaysia’s favourable demographic tailwind. We invite you to engage with our corporate leaders and to understand the opportunities to grow with us.

ForewordDear Capital Market Drivers,

Welcome to Invest Malaysia Kuala Lumpur 2015!

When it comes to the world’s leading markets, Malaysia stands out as one of the most diversified and sustainable marketplaces in the world.

Ranked 4th best for Financial Market Development by the World Economic Forum, 4th best in Asia by Corporate Governance Watch and home to 27% of ASEAN’s top 100 companies, it should not come as a surprise that Malaysia also sits within the top five of both the Bloomberg Best Emerging Markets 2014 and Most-Promising in 2015 lists.

Malaysia’s economic transformation has bolstered an already proven resilient economy and has yielded the growth of a diverse set of Malaysian-grown multinationals that are tapping into the rapid growth of ASEAN.

On this 11th installment of Invest Malaysia, it is with great pleasure that I invite you to capitalise on the unique, emerging market investment opportunities in Malaysia.

Tan Sri Amirsham A. AzizChairman, Bursa Malaysia

With this barge ownership, PBJV is now able to undertake bigger and bigger scale offshore pipeline projects, landing a huge win of RM2.24bn in 2013. In 2014, Barakah executed the outstanding orderbook in a timely and safe manner. This led to a good set of results for financial period ended 31 December 2014 (15MFY14). For the 15MFY14, group turnover rose 3.2 times to RM949.0million, EBITDA by 1.6times to RM149.4 million and headline net profit by two-fold to RM80.3 million.
