IDRIS BIN HJ. HARON CHIEF MINISTER OF MELAKA To quote the father of modern economics, Mr. Adam Smith “Labour was the first price, the original purchase – money that was paid for all things. It was not by gold or by silver, but by labour, that all the wealth of the world was originally purchased”. To put it simply, skills and your willingness to work is your currency.

This event caters to the supply and demand need for suitable and talented manpower which is crucial for successful business operations in today’s highly competitive and globalised economy. It is inspiring to see that many well-established companies are participating in the MCCCI Career Fair 2016. Businesses should be on the lookout continuously for future talents that can help them reach their objectives and goals. Some goals might be over the horizon but it does no harm to be prepared for the future. To future employees visiting this career fair, I strongly urge you to seize on the available opportunities to upgrade yourselves to become more resourceful, and skilful and add value to your resume.
