Ministry of International Trade and Industry
Second National eCommerce Council (Necc) Meeting and eCommerce Day
10 June 2016The inaugural eCommerce
Day organised today by MITI, in collaboration with MDEC, marks another milestone in the Government’s efforts towards driving the national eCommerce agenda in the era of borderless trading of goods and services. The main objective is to reach out and educate the public and local business community, particularly SMEs, on the national eCommerce agenda.
Salient key events throughout the day include the soft launch of the National eCommerce Strategic Roadmap as well as MITI’s eCommerce Weblink that will provide overview on the eCommerce ecosystem in Malaysia as well as updates on eCommerce events organised by various Ministries and agencies throughout the year. The day also featured presentations by experts from AT Kearney, MATRADE and SME Corp on various eCommerce related topics, including promoting cross-border eCommerce as well as increasing SMEs involvement in eCommerce.
Speaking at the Opening Ceremony of the eCommerce Day, the International Trade and Industry Minister YB Dato’ Sri Mustapa Mohamed stressed that the growth of eCommerce was vital to Malaysia’s economic future. "The Government is committed to increase the adoption of eCommerce in the country. The 11th Malaysia Plan (RMK11) for example has set the eCommerce GDP contribution at 6.4% (RM114 billion) by 2020" he said. Currently, Malaysia’s eCommerce GDP contribution stands at 5.8%. In terms of eCommerce contribution to GDP, we are still behind compared to other countries such as China (21% of GDP) and the US (35% of GDP).
eCommerce is growing rapidly in Malaysia as more people are getting connected to the internet and it has become extremely important in Malaysia’s digital economy agenda.
The Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) Chief Executive Officer, Datuk Yasmin Mahmood highlighted that MDEC is constantly engaging with industry partners and relevant Government agencies to fully maximise eCommerce market potential in line with Malaysia’s targets to double the eCommerce annual growth rate from 10.8% in 2016 to 20.8% in 2020 as well as to position ourselves as the leading hub for eCommerce in the ASEAN region.
The eCommerce Day was attended by more than 500 participants from various eCommerce segments, including eMarketplaces (such as 11street and Lazada); payment solutions (such as MOLPAY and IPay88); logistic providers (such as Pos Malaysia and DHL); solution providers (such as Webshaper and Sitegiant); Chambers of Commerce and associations; and online sellers including SMEs.
The eCommerce Day also witnessed the exchange of two (2) MoUs between MATRADE and 11street and MATRADE and DagangHalal for collaboration initiatives on eCommerce. The MoUs will provide an avenue for Malaysian exporters to leverage on the training offered and to have the opportunity to be listed on these online marketplaces. This collaboration will also foster the growth of online sellers consistent with the government’s initiative to increase the adoption of ecommerce among Malaysian SMEs including halal exporters. This adds to the list of global e-marketplaces already in collaboration with MATRADE namely Alibaba, TradeIndia, eBay and Amazon as well as those for the China market such as JD.com and TMall.com through JinBaoMen (M) Sdn Bhd.
YB Dato’ Sri Mustapa Mohamed also chaired the Second National eCommerce Council (NeCC) meeting held at the sideline of the eCommerce Day. This meeting brings together major players involved in the development of eCommerce sector from the public
and private sector, including Ministry of Finance, Bank Negara, Customs, MDEC, MCMC, Ministry of Domestic Trade, Department of Statistics, Pos Malaysia, MITI, MATRADE, SME Corp, and eCommerce organisations and industry players, such as, Persatuan Usahawan Internet Malaysia (PUIM), The National ICT Association of Malaysia (PIKOM), MOLPay and 11street.
The NeCC discussed among others the key deliverables of the National eCommerce Stategic Roadmap. Six (6) Strategic Thrust Areas have been outlined under this Roadmap, namely:
Accelerate seller adoption of eCommerce;Promote national brand to boost cross-border eCommerce;Make strategic investments in selected eCommerce players;Provide economic incentives (fiscal, grants and subsidies);Lift non-tariff barriers; andIncrease adoption of eProcurement by businesses.
The Council also discussed Pos Malaysia’s strategic plan with an ultimate goal to strategise the Group’s ambition to tap the potential arising from eCommerce.
Moving forward, the NeCC will continue to be an important platform in fostering collaboration amongst all parties involved in this sector. Their insights will be crucial towards our focused effort in driving the development of Malaysia’s eCommerce sector.

Caely (M) Sdn Bhd is based in the northern Malaysian state of Perak, which is famous for its tin mine. Incorporated in 1986, Caely has enjoyed 15 good years in the direct selling industry and is a subsidiary of Caely Holdings Bhd, which is listed on Bursa Malaysia.
Caely commenced business by selling high quality lingerie for ladies, which remains as one of its best-known and best-selling products. After its initial success, Caely expanded its product range to remain competitive and adapt to market demands. The company now offers a variety of apparel and household products.
In its direct selling structure, Caely reaches out to nearly 100,000 members at various levels and has 60 outlets throughout Malaysia. Four years after it began operations, Caely was ready to venture overseas and explore opportunities in the global arena.
Its export activities commenced in 1990 when Classita (M) Sdn Bhd was established as a subsidiary of Caely to focus on overseas markets. The move was well rewarded, when Classita won the 10th European Quality Award organised by the Trae Leaders’ Club of Madrid, Spain in 1997.
The high quality products ensures repeat orders from its members, which is translated into increased revenue. In its headquarters in Wisma Caely, the professional management team of Caely is committed to maintaining quality standards in its products for its loyal and potential customers.
To achieve this, the company practises a stringent supplier policy, where only the best manufacturers with the latest technology and production facilities are chosen. In line with this policy, Caely and Classita obtained the ISO 9002 and ISO 9001 certifications in the year 2000.
In 2004, the group achieved a record turnover exceeding RM100 million, with more than 1,000 workers who produced over one million pieces of lingerie every month.
