Zafrul: Address lack of skilled EV workers quickly

Tengku Zafrul said more progressive steps must be taken to reskill and upskill local industry players to keep up with the expected spike in demand for charging stations.

KUALA LUMPUR: The lack of skilled electric vehicle (EV) workers nationally must be addressed if Malaysia is to keep up with the rapidly expanding regional EV market, says Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz.

The Investment, Trade and Industry Minister pointed out that there was promising adoption of EVs globally over the last few years.
