The SMI Association of Malaysia has for the first time coordinated its efforts with the Finance Ministry and Bank Negara to create greater awareness of the Government's financial initiatives to give a boost to domestic small- and medium- sized industries (SMIs).
Speaking to reporters in Putrajaya yesterday, Deputy Finance Minister 1 Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen said the SMI Financial Solutions Roadshow 2004, which starts today, aimed at helping local SMIs obtain the necessary information on financial packages available to them through the local banking system and Bank Negara.
