TM Told To Expand Cooperation With MITI On Entrepreneur Development

KUALA LUMPUR, July 21 (Bernama) -- Deputy International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Mukhriz Tun Dr Mahathir told Telekom Malaysia (TM) to expand its cooperation with the ministry on entrepreneur development.



He said the company should work together with the ministry's Entrepreneur Development Division through the National Entrepreneur Development Institute whose role is to train and develop entrepreneurs in various fields including ICT and telecomunication.



"Perhaps, the cooperation in the areas of technology, skills and entrepreneur development funding can be optimised in realising the mission to produce true entrepreneurs," he said at the presentation of TM Entrepreneur Awards here.



He said TM had forged a close cooperation with the ministry with the signing of a memorandum of understanding in April between SME Corp and the ministry to jointly develop entrepreneurs under the TM Entrepreneur Development Programme.



The programme, he said, was a platform to mould and guide entrepreneurs to become world-class players.



"Entrepreneurs under the programme have advantages as they are given special attention through various development schemes and exposure to new areas of business," he said.
