  • Family Firms and Brand Products in Malaysia: Originality, Productivity and Sustainability
    Edmund Terence Gomez and Wong Yee Tuan __________________________________ Family Firms and Brand Products in Malaysia: Originality, Productivity and Sustainability EDMUND TERENCE GOMEZ AND WONG YEE TUAN Abstract Two key questions in Malaysia's corporate history have not yet been answered. Why is it that only a small number of family firms produce brand products? Why has none emerged as a major publicly listed enterprise? This study employs concepts from family business literature as well as Alfred Chandler, Jr's business history approach to answer these questions. A blend of conceptual tools from these two bodies of literature offers insights into the evolution of these brand product family firms. By adopting this approach, this study reveals that the core issues requiring scrutiny are an enterprise's volume of investments in research and development, a skilled managerial team and an effective marketing tech- nique. Other issues include the need for a sound succession plan and a focus on a horizontal form of enterprise development. This article also reviews the capacity of the state to enable as well as hamper the rise of domestic brand product firms. K e y w o r d s : family firms, Chandler, brand products, Malaysia The Puzzle: Family Firms and Brand Products A major concern about family firms with a long and leading presence in the Malaysian economy is that they have no reputation for produc- ing brand products, i.e., a consumer good or service embodied in a trademark, design or symbol that has emerged as a household name (Acker 2002; Anholt 2005). This is the case even though families con- trol about 40 per cent of publicly listed companies, while the top ten families own a quarter of total market capitalization of the country's stock exchange, Bursa Malaysia.

  • A Time to Reflect
    Runcit Malaysia Magazine Issue 7 Tinjauan Runcit A TIME TO REFLECT How fast time flies! Welcome to our 7th issue of Runcit Malaysia magazine. It seems like only yesterday when we rolled-out the first copy of Malaysia’s only business improvement magazine for the traditional trade! I must say it has been quite a journey, especially in the initial stages. As no such magazine had ever existed in Malaysia before, most people (even among the manufacturers) could not comprehend the Runcit Malaysia concept. Some even doubted that it would do any good. But we persevered because we were convinced that retailers, like you, needed and would readily welcome credible and practical advice to strengthen and modernise your business, especially given the many challenges of running a small business today. Just to take stock of how retailers were responding to Runcit Malaysia magazine, we recently conducted a massive survey of 1,920 retailers throughout Peninsular Malaysia. The results (reported inside this issue) were highly positive and most encouraging! We found that the majority of you do read the magazine and find it beneficial. We are very proud of the fact that the Government is very supportive of Runcit Malaysia, as Yang Berhormat Datuk S Veerasingham informed us during a face-to-face interview. The Deputy Minister of Domestic Trade & Consumer Affairs Malaysia is very concerned about traditional retailers. So, do read the write-up to see what he has to say to you. In spite of our progress and successes along the way, we cannot rest on our laurels. We will keep improving the magazine to better serve your needs.
