Daikin Malaysia Launches POAS Affordable AC Financing Plan

DAIKIN Malaysia has unveiled its game-changing POAS financing plan, dubbed 'Pelan Mudah Milik,' making premium air conditioners accessible to Malaysian families with monthly payments starting from just RM52.
The market-leading air conditioning brand's latest initiative addresses the affordability gap that has prevented many households from enjoying quality cooling solutions in Malaysia's hot and humid climate.
What makes POAS special?
Standing for Peace of Mind, Optimal Comfort, Affordability and Satisfaction, POAS offers five key advantages that set it apart from traditional purchasing options:
Ultra-Low Monthly Payments: Customers can own premium Daikin air conditioners with instalments as low as RM52 per month, making quality cooling solutions budget-friendly for most households.

Addressing Real Malaysian Needs

'With POAS, you can now enjoy flexible and affordable payment options, whether through monthly credit card instalments or financing plans that match your budget – even without a credit card.'
The initiative recognises that air conditioning in Malaysia's tropical climate is more necessity than luxury, yet upfront costs have remained a significant barrier for many families.
Long-Term Benefits for Consumers
Beyond immediate affordability, POAS encourages smart long-term investment by providing access to energy-efficient models that deliver:
Cleaner and healthier indoor air quality
Reduced electricity bills through advanced energy-saving technology
Convenient wireless control via the Go Daikin mobile app

Bursa Malaysia forms industry working group to strengthen cybersecurity in stockbroking

Bursa Malaysia chief executive officer Datuk Fad'l Mohamed KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia Bhd has formed a dedicated industry working group to strengthen cyber resilience across the Malaysian stockbroking ecosystem. In a statement, the stock exchange operator said this coordinated effort follows the unauthorised trades incident on April 24, 2025. 'The industry working group represents a concerted effort to strengthen the cyber resiliency of our trading ecosystem. The industry recognises that cyber resiliency is not just a technology best practice — it is the cornerstone of a trusted and vibrant capital market. 'A resilient ecosystem safeguards investor confidence, upholds market integrity, and ensures that our digital infrastructure can withstand and adapt to evolving threats,' chief executive officer Datuk Fad'l Mohamed said. The industry working group, chaired by Bursa Malaysia chief regulatory officer Julian M Hashim, comprises representatives from four bank-backed participating organisations (POs), two non-bank POs, and two subject matter experts in the field of cybersecurity. The group held its inaugural meeting on June 17, 2025, during which it finalised its terms of reference. Its mandate includes assessing current cybersecurity practices and identifying systemic vulnerabilities within the stockbroking ecosystem. Additionally, the group will work on developing industry-wide standards and best practices for information and communication technology (ICT) risk management and incident response. It is also tasked with recommending enhancements to regulatory frameworks and operational protocols to strengthen overall cyber resilience. The industry working group targets to finalise its recommendation paper within four months, with the subsequent implementation phase focused on the execution of the recommendations. Acknowledging the different levels of operational complexity among stockbroking firms, industry consultations will be held to ensure the recommendations are practical and fit for purpose. Bursa Malaysia said stockbroking firms have recently implemented precautionary measures, including mandatory password resets, enhanced monitoring of unusual logins, blocking suspicious IP addresses, and issuing client alerts to safeguard login details. In line with these efforts, Bursa Malaysia had on May 21, 2025 sent out a directive to mandate that all stockbroking firms implement multi-factor authentication by the end of 2025. This requirement is a critical step towards enhancing the security of investor trading accounts and mitigating the risk of unauthorised access.

Developed through an exclusive partnership with Oracle Red Bull Racing, the new product line made its debut alongside a special public event at Elmina Lakeside Mall, designed to showcase its premium capabilities while engaging local car enthusiasts and families alike. The event highlighted the standout product from the range–the Armor All Podium Series Interior Detailer–alongside demonstrations of its trusted exterior offerings. Visitors were treated to complimentary car wash services, giving them a hands-on introduction to the advanced formulations now available to the Malaysian market. This new Podium Series represents a significant leap in car care technology, incorporating hybrid ceramic formulas based on advanced SiO₂ compounds. The result is a range that provides exceptional surface protection, long-lasting water repellency, and high durability across various vehicle surfaces. The collection has been designed with both professional detailers and everyday car owners in mind, combining performance with ease of use to suit Malaysia's climate and urban driving conditions. The Armor All Podium Series includes several standout products: the Hybrid Ceramic Wash & Shine, which delivers a slick, sudsy gloss and hydrophobic protection; the Hybrid Ceramic Tyre Shine, offering a deep, lasting shine for up to four weeks; and the Hybrid Ceramic Exterior Detailer, which enhances colour depth and forms a protective barrier on all exterior surfaces including vinyl wraps and decals. For interior care, the series includes the Interior Detailer, formulated to clean and refresh a range of surfaces including glass, tech screens, and premium materials while offering UV protection and a natural finish. Rounding off the lineup is the Hybrid Ceramic Protectant, which shields surfaces from dust buildup and future staining, reinforced with UVA and UVB protection. The new packaging also reflects Armor All's commitment to sustainability and user experience, featuring recyclable PET bottles and specially designed spray triggers for controlled application. According to Energizer Malaysia's Business Director for Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam, Diane Lee, the collaboration with Oracle Red Bull Racing has brought a level of car care innovation previously reserved for the elite racing world into the hands of everyday drivers. She noted that Malaysians have a strong connection to their vehicles–not just as a mode of transport but as an extension of their personality–and that the Podium Series was developed to meet these emotional and practical needs. As part of the nationwide rollout, the public is invited to try the full range at Elmina Lakeside Mall's Open Carpark from 21 to 22 June 2025, between 10:00 AM and 10:00 PM.

Eastern Steel launches Malaysia's first crude steel EPD

KUALA LUMPUR: Eastern Steel Sdn Bhd has introduced Malaysia's first environmental product declaration (EPD) for a crude steel product, supporting manufacturers in meeting rising global sustainability standards. The initiative was powered by EC Digital, an industrial carbon quantification solutions provider, which recently established a subsidiary in Malaysia to support the region's sustainability goals. It addresses the growing need for Malaysian manufacturers to meet stringent international standards, including the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism and supply chain requirements for verifiable certifications based on quantified carbon emissions. The EPD acts as an environmental nutrition label, presenting complex life cycle assessment (LCA) results in a standardised format. By quantifying impacts like carbon footprint, water consumption and air pollution based on a verified scientific approach, it provides the transparency essential to combat greenwashing and meet the stringent requirements of green building certifications and global procurement policies. Beyond supporting national climate goals, Eastern Steel said its adoption of international best practices in LCA and third-party verification is also establishing a transparent governance model for others to follow. This represents exactly the kind of credible, data-driven action required to support Malaysia's environmental commitments. Eastern Steel executive director Datuk Tee Choon Hock said in a statement that the company chose the EPD path as it represents the highest standard of transparency. "The company believes its customers deserve to know the verified environmental footprint of their products. "This entire process, from the detailed LCA to the final third-party verification, strengthens internal governance and gives partners unwavering confidence in their commitment to sustainable manufacturing," he added.
