Stronger currency performance is often associated with improved stability and easing inflation. Yet for many Malaysians, daily life still feels financially tight. Spending remains cautious, and household budgets continue to feel strained.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>This gap between economic indicators and lived experience highlights an important reality: economic recovery is not just a financial process, but a psychological one. Understanding how people perceive and respond to economic change helps explain why confidence often takes longer to return than the numbers suggest.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Why a Stronger Ringgit Does Not Instantly Change Perceptions\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>From a macroeconomic perspective, a strengthening Ringgit reflects improving fundamentals, better investor confidence, and stabilising price pressures. However, individuals and families do not experience these shifts immediately. Financial decisions are deeply shaped by past experiences, particularly periods of economic stress.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>When prices rise sharply or budgets tighten, the emotional impact is felt quickly. Even when conditions begin to improve, people remain cautious. This hesitation is not irrational, it is a natural psychological response to uncertainty.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Anchoring: How Past Experiences Shape Today’s Behaviour\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>One key psychological concept that helps explain this behaviour is \u003Cstrong>anchoring\u003C/strong>. Anchoring refers to our tendency to rely heavily on past experiences when evaluating new situations.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>For many Malaysians, memories of higher food prices, rising living costs, and financial uncertainty remain vivid. These experiences become mental reference points. Even when inflation slows or the Ringgit strengthens, people continue to assess their financial situation against those earlier, more challenging periods.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>As a result, improvements in the economy may be acknowledged intellectually, but they are not immediately trusted emotionally.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Loss Aversion and the Slow Emotional Recovery\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Another important factor is \u003Cstrong>loss aversion\u003C/strong>, a well-established principle in behavioural psychology. Loss aversion explains why people react more strongly to losses than to gains of the same size.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>When the cost of living increased, households felt the impact almost immediately. Financial stress, spending cuts, and heightened anxiety followed quickly. However, when conditions stabilise, the emotional recovery takes longer. People do not instantly feel better simply because prices stop rising.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>This is why many Malaysians continue to feel cautious even as economic indicators show improvement.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>How Psychology Shapes Spending and Consumer Confidence\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Psychological responses directly influence consumer behaviour. When confidence is low, people are more likely to delay purchases, reduce discretionary spending, and maintain strict budgets, even when economic conditions begin to stabilise.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>This explains why consumer confidence does not rebound the moment the Ringgit strengthens. A stable currency alone is not enough. People need consistent, repeated signals before they feel secure enough to adjust their spending habits.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Why Stability Over Time Matters\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>From a psychological perspective, trust is rebuilt through consistency. As the Ringgit remains strong and economic stability continues, expectations gradually adjust. Over time, households begin to feel safer, spending patterns loosen, and confidence slowly returns.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>This highlights a key insight for policymakers, businesses, and institutions: economic recovery is not only about improving indicators, but about rebuilding trust and emotional security.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Conclusion\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>While the strengthening Ringgit is a positive sign for Malaysia’s economy, emotional recovery naturally lags behind economic improvement. Concepts such as anchoring and loss aversion explain why many Malaysians continue to feel financial pressure even as conditions stabilise.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>At the University of Reading Malaysia, our \u003Ca href=\"/academics/programmes/undergraduate/bsc-psychology-professional-placement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Psychology programme\u003C/a> examines how human behaviour shapes decision-making across society, including economic and financial behaviour.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Discover more expert perspectives from UoRM by exploring our \u003Ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCMaiLEnQL7mYf7-x7zDEAcyAWwUw-7T9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Expert Series\u003C/a> or \u003Ca href=\"/contact-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact us\u003C/a> to learn more about studying Psychology at UoRM.\u003C/p>\n\u003C/div>",{"metaTitle":405,"metaDescription":406},"Why Malaysians Still Feel the Economy Is Tight | UoRM Psychology | University of Reading Malaysia","Why does the economy still feel tight despite a stronger Ringgit?

Exchange rate movements influence import costs, export competitiveness, investment appetite, and long-term planning. This expanded analysis from Henley Business School Malaysia explores the forces behind the Ringgit’s recovery, its implications for industries, and how organisations can position themselves strategically in a changing economic environment.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>A stronger Ringgit is typically a reflection of improving national fundamentals, from stable governance and inflation control to healthier trade performance and investor sentiment. However, the impact is not uniform. Import-dependent companies may benefit immediately, while exporters may need to refine their competitive strategies. Below, we break down the key drivers and practical business implications.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>What Is Driving the Ringgit’s Recovery?\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The currency’s appreciation reflects interconnected economic and policy developments. Understanding these drivers helps businesses interpret the broader operating landscape and adjust future strategy.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Improving economic fundamentals and trade performance\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Malaysia’s economy continues to benefit from strong demand in key export sectors including E&E manufacturing, commodities, and professional services. As global supply chains stabilise, export consistency helps strengthen the balance of payments and reduces volatility, contributing to a firmer Ringgit.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Clearer policy direction and fiscal discipline\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>The government’s ongoing work on subsidy rationalisation, targeted social support, and improved public finance management has contributed to renewed investor confidence. When fiscal frameworks are predictable and governance is strong, it strengthens external perceptions of economic stability which supports the Ringgit.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Increased investor confidence and capital inflows\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Malaysia’s strategic location within ASEAN, combined with improved policy clarity, continues to attract foreign direct investment and portfolio inflows. Capital entering the local market strengthens the currency through greater demand, while also acting as a signal of confidence in Malaysia’s long-term growth prospects.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>How a Stronger Ringgit Affects Malaysian Businesses\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The impact of currency appreciation differs across sectors. While importers may experience cost advantages, exporters may need to adjust their strategic positioning. Across industries, planning and agility become critical.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Lower import expenditure and operating costs\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Businesses reliant on imported components, machinery, or raw materials benefit from reduced input costs when the Ringgit strengthens. This may free up capital for innovation, digitalisation, and workforce development. Over time, this supports productivity growth, especially among SMEs.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Competitive pressures for export-driven sectors\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Exporters may face price-based competition as Malaysian goods become relatively more expensive abroad. However, this shift encourages companies to move up the value chain by emphasising branding, innovation, service differentiation, and product quality. Long-term competitiveness depends increasingly on innovation rather than cost alone.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>A more favourable environment for long-term investment\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Currency stability reduces uncertainty, enabling firms to commit more confidently to expansion projects, technology upgrades, and workforce upskilling. Investment-heavy industries, including real estate, technology, logistics, and financial services will benefit significantly from a predictable macroeconomic environment.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Strategic Considerations for Businesses Moving Forward\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>To navigate the evolving economic environment, organisations must reassess strategies, innovation priorities, and resilience planning. Henley Business School identifies several areas for strategic focus.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Reevaluating pricing, market positioning, and value creation\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>With narrowing price advantages, businesses should shift toward higher-value offerings, differentiated services, and innovation-led competitiveness. Strengthening brand equity and customer experience will be essential.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Building supply chain resilience and quality improvements\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Lower import costs create an opportunity to diversify suppliers, upgrade materials, and improve operational reliability. Stable input pricing can support better forecasting and reduce operational risk.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Investing in talent, digital capabilities, and leadership development\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>A stable business environment supports long-term investments in leadership and capability-building.

While exchange rates can feel technical and removed from daily life, their movements have real implications for households, businesses, and sectors such as higher education. This article expands on the Provost’s expert perspective. Examining the drivers behind the Ringgit’s recovery, the practical consequences for Malaysians, and what the future might hold if current trends persist.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The recent upward trend in the Ringgit is not the result of a single event but a combination of improving economic fundamentals, clearer policy direction, and renewed capital flows. Taken together, these factors suggest greater macroeconomic stability and a more favourable environment for investment, consumption, and long-term planning. Below, we explore these elements in detail and outline how different segments of society could benefit.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>What Is Driving the Ringgit’s Recovery?\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The Ringgit’s recovery is the product of multiple, mutually reinforcing trends. Understanding these drivers helps contextualise the currency movement and clarifies why its effects extend beyond foreign-exchange tables into everyday economic life.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Stronger trade and economic fundamentals\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Malaysia’s diversified export base, including electrical and electronics manufacturing, palm oil and other commodities, and an expanding services sector, has supported external resilience. As global supply chains gradually stabilise after pandemic disruptions, demand for Malaysia’s exportable goods and services has become more predictable. This steadier trade performance underpins currency strength by improving the balance of payments and reducing downside volatility associated with external shocks.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Improved governance and policy clarity\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Fiscal reforms, clearer policy communication, and measures to enhance transparency have helped restore investor confidence. Actions such as prudent public finance management, targeted subsidy rationalisation, and efforts to broaden the tax base demonstrate a commitment to long-term sustainability. Markets value predictability: when policymakers provide coherent signals about the country’s direction, capital allocators respond more favourably and supporting the currency as a result.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Renewed investor interest\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>As global capital seeks productive opportunities in the region, Malaysia’s combination of strategic location, competitive costs, and improved policy stability has attracted attention. Increased foreign direct investment and portfolio inflows contribute to demand for the Ringgit, providing an important source of support. This capital inflow often acts as both a signal and a mechanism: it signals confidence and mechanically strengthens the currency through FX market activity.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>What This Means for Malaysian Households\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Currency movements affect everyday life in concrete ways. For many families, the improving Ringgit can bring practical relief, particularly where imported goods or services play a significant role in household budgets.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Lower import costs and consumer prices\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>A stronger Ringgit reduces the domestic price of imported items, from food staples and medical supplies to electronics and raw materials for manufactured goods. Over time, this can ease price pressures across retail categories and improve the purchasing power of households which contributes to a gradual reduction in the cost of living.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Moderation of inflation\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>When import prices stabilise, inflationary momentum tends to weaken. Slower inflation helps households plan expenses such as schooling, healthcare, and housing with greater certainty. This can be particularly meaningful for middle-income families who feel the cumulative effect of price increases most acutely.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Improved confidence for long-term planning\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Currency stability reduces uncertainty, which is critical for decisions like saving for higher education, making down payments on property, or planning retirement contributions. A predictable exchange-rate environment supports better financial planning and can reduce the need for costly hedging or last-minute adjustments to household budgets.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Implications for Businesses and the Wider Economy\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Businesses will experience the Ringgit’s strengthening differently depending on their exposure to international markets, input sourcing, and pricing strategies. Overall, the movement creates both opportunities and strategic imperatives.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Lower input costs for import-dependent sectors\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Manufacturers, retailers, and service providers who rely on imported components or equipment benefit from reduced costs. Lower input prices can improve margins, free resources for investment, and allow businesses to invest in efficiency improvements or workforce development.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Pressure and opportunity for exporters\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>A stronger Ringgit can make exported goods relatively more expensive in foreign markets, creating competitive pressures for price-sensitive sectors. That said, it also incentivises firms to move up the value chain, focusing on product differentiation, higher-value services, and branding. Firms that adapt through innovation and quality improvements can turn currency strength into an opportunity to compete on value rather than price alone.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>A more attractive investment landscape\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Currency stability is one factor among many that investors consider. Together with improved governance and clear economic strategy, a stable Ringgit enhances Malaysia’s attractiveness as an investment destination across sectors such as technology, real estate, finance, and education. This inflow of capital supports growth, job creation, and knowledge transfer.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>How the Strengthening Ringgit Affects Higher Education\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The education sector is a strategic, long-term beneficiary of currency stability. Students, families, and institutions all stand to gain when exchange-rate volatility recedes.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Easing the financial burden for students and families\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Families budgeting for tuition, living costs, or study-abroad plans benefit from more predictable exchange rates. Reduced currency risk can make international study less daunting financially and can help families commit more confidently to long-term education plans.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch3>Greater appeal of internationally recognised degrees offered locally\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>Institutions like the University of Reading Malaysia deliver UK-accredited degrees on Malaysian campuses. When the Ringgit strengthens, the cost differential between studying locally and studying overseas becomes more favourable for local study.

Malaysia isn’t earthquake-prone, but what does this mean for our buildings?\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>When Johor recently felt earthquake tremors from neighbouring Indonesia, the event sparked public concern. Although Malaysia is not widely recognised as an earthquake-prone country, the question arises: are our buildings designed with earthquakes in mind? To answer this, it is important to consider Malaysia’s location, our building regulations, and the role of construction professionals, particularly Quantity Surveyors, in ensuring compliance, safety, and resilience.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Malaysia and the Ring of Fire. Where We Stand\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Malaysia is situated outside the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an area known for frequent and powerful earthquakes. This geographical position means our seismic risk is significantly lower than in countries such as Japan, Indonesia, or the Philippines. However, Malaysia is not completely safe from earthquake effects. Tremors from neighbouring Indonesia have been felt in parts of Peninsular Malaysia, and in East Malaysia, especially Sabah, the proximity to tectonic fault lines increases the risk. While severe earthquakes are rare, the possibility of tremors highlights the importance of resilience in Malaysian construction.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Building Regulations in Malaysia: Are Earthquakes Considered?\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Under current Malaysia building codes, including the Uniform Building By-Laws (UBBL), seismic building design is not mandated nationwide. For most everyday residential and commercial projects, earthquakes are not a primary consideration in the structural design process. However, in higher-risk regions such as Sabah, and in large-scale or high-rise projects, structural engineers may adopt seismic building standards and incorporate earthquake design Malaysia provisions into their work. This can include structural reinforcements and compliance with international codes, ensuring that critical facilities are better prepared to withstand potential tremors.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>The Role of Quantity Surveyors\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The role of the Quantity Surveyor in construction is fundamental to translating resilience from concept into practice. Unlike architects or engineers, Quantity Surveyors are not directly responsible for the physical design of structures, but their contribution is no less critical. They provide the financial stewardship that underpins every decision related to safety and compliance. By ensuring that budgets are rigorously planned and allocated, Quantity Surveyors make certain that projects can accommodate the necessary provisions for regulatory compliance, high-quality materials, and contingencies for unforeseen risks. This is particularly significant when seismic design features are considered. Engineers may recommend structural reinforcements or international seismic standards, but without a clear understanding of the cost implications, such measures risk being dismissed as impractical. The Quantity Surveyor bridges this gap by undertaking detailed cost analyses, lifecycle assessments, and value engineering to demonstrate how resilience can be achieved without undermining the financial feasibility of a project.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>In this sense, the Quantity Surveyor transforms seismic resilience from an abstract engineering aspiration into a deliverable reality. Their expertise ensures that safety provisions are not compromised in the face of budget constraints and that resilience becomes an embedded feature of the project rather than an afterthought. This dual responsibility, safeguarding both the structural integrity of the built environment and the economic value of the project, highlights the strategic role Quantity Surveyors play. By acting as mediators between technical design requirements and financial realities, they ensure that resilience, including earthquake considerations where relevant, is not only a matter of engineering excellence but also one of economic sustainability. In doing so, Quantity Surveyors help guarantee that Malaysia’s built environment is both safe and viable, protecting communities while delivering long-term value.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Future of Seismic Resilience in Malaysia\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Looking ahead, seismic resilience in Malaysia will become increasingly relevant. With rapid urbanisation, population growth, and the occasional tremors experienced from neighbouring regions, resilience is gaining more attention within the construction sector. Sustainable development is not only about green building design but also about planning for natural hazards. Quantity Surveyors contribute to this agenda through lifecycle costing, value management, and risk planning, ensuring that Malaysia’s built environment remains safe, efficient, and future-proof.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>In conclusion, while earthquakes are not a dominant factor in most Malaysian building projects, seismic considerations are applied in Sabah and for critical or high-rise developments. Engineers are responsible for embedding structural safeguards, while Quantity Surveyors play a pivotal role in ensuring that project budgets, materials, and compliance strategies align with seismic safety requirements. At the University of Reading Malaysia, our BSc (Hons) Quantity Surveying programme, accredited by four professional bodies, equips graduates with the skills to balance cost, compliance, and safety in line with Malaysia building codes and global best practices. By training future professionals to take on these challenges, we prepare them to contribute to safer, more resilient, and sustainable construction across Malaysia and beyond.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Interested in becoming part of the next generation of construction professionals?

2018.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>I’m currently working as a Consulting Associate, Knowledge-as-a-Service team (KaaS) in Frost and Sullivan whose office in Johor is at the proximity of Medini Iskandar. Frost and Sullivan is a “Growth Pipeline Company” which helps to identify, prioritize and execute new business growth opportunities for the past 60 years. The most interesting aspect of my job is getting to be involved in researches and studies related to different industries and it is indeed an eye-opener. Another reason that thrusted me to move forward is my influence as an information input and a factor throughout their business decision-making process. For instance, I am currently working on a database to generate insights about trends in patents from a timing, geographical and technological perspective.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>What I found most beneficial to my career from the programme at UoRM was the ways to construct an idea and put it into fruition.

Get into more competitions and activities, hang around with like-minded individuals and be exposed to varieties of perspectives.

The Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) degree offered at UoRM is the same as that offered on the University’s UK campus which is already well-recognized and established here in Malaysia. Students who choose to study law have many career options available when they graduate.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The most obvious option is a career in the legal profession as a legal practitioner. Here, law graduates are required to pass the Certificate in Legal Practice (CLP) exam in Malaysia or the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) in the UK. Graduates are also required to complete a compulsory 9-month period of practical training referred to as ‘chambering’ or pupillage under the supervision of a senior lawyer following which they will be called to the Bar and qualified to practise law.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Most following this route would work for a law firm as an advocate and solicitor. As with doctors, advocates and solicitors can choose to be generalists or specialize in a particular aspect of law such as family law, commercial law, intellectual property or other areas. Advocates and solicitors can rise steadily through the ranks to become a partner in a law firm. This usually takes several years depending on the size of the firm. Partners are either paid a salary or assume part ownership of the firm and take a share of the profits. Alternatively, more entrepreneurial-minded individuals can venture out and set up their own law firm.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Law graduates do not need to work specifically for a law firm or sit for the CLP/BPTC. Many choose to join the private sector as a corporate lawyer or legal counsel where they advise companies on legal matters; they would typically start their career as a legal officer before rising the ranks to head the legal department. In many cases, they may acquire industry-specific legal skills and knowledge. For example, those joining the finance and banking sector may develop specialist expertise in trust, securities, capital markets, taxation and banking law. Law graduates are also in high demand from consulting and professional services firms where they would serve as consultants and advise corporate clients.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Another interesting line of work is arbitration and mediation, which requires excellent communication, critical thinking and negotiation skills. Arbitration and mediation are both aimed at reaching a fair resolution to a dispute between two or more parties. Increasingly, companies are turning to arbitration and mediation as a way to resolve disputes as it is more cost-effective and faster than litigation through the courts.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Law graduates can also opt to work in the public sector and become civil servants with the legal departments in agencies such as the Ministry of Home Affairs, Royal Malaysian Police and Attorney General’s Chambers. In such cases, they will often be involved in providing legal advice or helping to shape public policy. Another option is to join the judicial service where they will support the magistrate.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>There are also opportunities to work in higher education as a law academic. Some enter academia after a significant stint as a practising lawyer where their extensive real-world experience is an asset in teaching many of the applied aspects of law. Others enter academia at a much earlier stage in their career where there is more emphasis on researching a specialised area of law. Those who are set on an academic career can study further for a PhD.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>In summary, law graduates have many different career options available to them. At the University of Reading, the emphasis is on developing law graduates who are agile and can quickly adapt wherever their career takes them. The School of Law at UoRM has excellent faculty and cutting-edge facilities to provide a world-class student learning experience including a moot court, legal clinic, e-library and learning resource centre.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cimg src=\"/images/joomla/law-infographic.png\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/p>",{"metaTitle":1147,"metaDescription":1141},"What can you do with a Law degree? | University of Reading Malaysia",{"url":1149},"/images/news/law-story3.png",{"url":1149},{},{"title":1141,"description":1145},{"metaTitle":1147,"metaDescription":1141},"news/what-can-u-do-with-law-degree","hTCULRP2cqLg_stEq5khOjPHn7a03GMdRTU3JbL0oKY",{"id":1157,"title":1158,"body":1159,"category":620,"date":1161,"description":1162,"eventDate":44,"eventEndDate":44,"eventType":44,"extension":5,"image":1167,"location":44,"meta":1168,"navigation":230,"path":1160,"registrationUrl":44,"seo":1169,"seo_settings":1170,"status":44,"stem":1171,"__hash__":1172},"news/news/programmes-delivered-online-mco.json","Programmes are delivered online during the MCO period",{"title":1158,"path":1160,"date":1161,"description":1162,"seo_settings":1163,"image":1165,"category":620},"/news/programmes-delivered-online-mco","2020-04-17","\u003Cp>Dear students and parents,\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Despite the Movement Control Order (MCO), the university remains operational, with students and staff being supported virtually.

Also present during the ceremony, industry players from BDO, Ernest & Young (EY), KPMG, Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC), Grant Thornton MSW, Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), ASAP Management Services, Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) and Johor Corporation.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Based on feedback from employers, three key qualities that have been identified as desirable in accountants are strong IT skills, good analytical skills, and astute commercial insight. As technology plays an ever-increasing role in accounting and finance, employers have expressed a need to hire professionals who possess a good understanding of data and modelling skills, as well as the ability to actively drive revenue through value added initiatives for their organisations.\u003Cbr />The Henley – ICAEW Programme (HIP) launched today is aimed at producing professionals with an honours degree-level education in accounting and finance, as well as the ICAEW Business and Finance Professional (ICAEW BFP) designation. The ICAEW BFP is an international recognition of technical competency, ethical awareness and commitment to ongoing professional development. HIP professionals are expected to join the workforce in 2022.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Professor Teck Y. Eng, Head, Henley Business School said that Henley Business School’s BSc Accounting and Finance programme is responsive to changes and demands in the industry. As thought leaders in the accounting profession, our collaboration with ICAEW reflects our commitment to high standards of education and relevance of our programme. The HIP will enhance our student experience and their employability by closing the gap between theory and the real world of actual practice.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Professor Wing Lam, UoRM Provost and Chief Executive Officer during his speech also stated that it is UoRM’s responsibility to produce high calibre, professional, future proofed graduates equipped with good ethics to feed to the industry. These components would make them stand out from the rest. I believe the HIP programme will be a flagship accounting programme in Malaysia under Henley Business School, which is one of the leading business schools in the country.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>“ICAEW works closely with employers in Malaysia and around the world to enable practical approaches that meet the needs of the industry. Strategic initiatives such as HIP are one of the many ways we share knowledge, insight and values to develop the accounting profession and ensure trust in business. We believe that accountancy is a force for positive economic change and we support our professionals throughout their career so they can make a difference,” said Loh Wei Yuen, Head of Malaysia, ICAEW.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>HIP is an innovative 4-year full-time study programme that includes compulsory completion of ICAEW’s Ethics Learning Programme.

However, construction disputes abound. Enhancing the level of knowledge of construction law may help reduce formal disputes. If this is achieved, less time and money would be wasted in resolving disputes and more effort could be put on getting construction projects completed on time, within budget, and to the contracted quality. Among the construction industry’s vision includes enhancing quality in construction, increasing productivity, reducing incidences of non-payment, and help avoid or resolve disputes more efficiently.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>This seminar will be used as a platform to demonstrate how this may be achieved from lessons from past experience, reviewing current practices, and innovating for the future. Recent construction court cases are reviewed for lessons to be learnt.
