She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

Live selling isn’t new—but it’s never been this powerful. Across Asia, live commerce has become a billion-dollar industry, turning casual viewers into instant buyers with just a few taps. Now, with the launch of TikTok Shop LIVE Hub, Malaysia is stepping into the spotlight, giving micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) a powerful platform to sell, engage, and scale like never before. Backed by a collaboration between TikTok Shop Malaysia and TEKUN Nasional, this initiative is designed to help businesses—especially small and homegrown brands—leverage the power of live streaming, social selling, and influencer marketing to boost sales. But what does this mean for Malaysia’s digital economy? And more importantly, how can local entrepreneurs position themselves to take advantage of this shift? To unpack this, we’re joined by Ganesh Kumar Bangah, a name synonymous with Malaysia’s digital transformation. Ganesh has been at the forefront of Malaysia’s digital evolution for over two decades. Today, he’ll help us understand what this new LIVE Hub means for businesses, the strategies that separate successful sellers from the rest, and whether live commerce is truly the future of retail.

The Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) is being positioned as a potential game-changer for cross-border trade, finance and investment. In this episode of Enterprise Explores, we speak with Wendell Tan, Principal at Arthur D.

The era of the all-powerful, top-down CEO is fading. Today’s leaders must balance confidence with humility, control with empowerment, and profitability with purpose. But how can they make this shift? And what does it take to unlearn outdated management styles to stay ahead in a rapidly changing world? On Enterprise Explores, we speak with Ramesh Srinivasan, Senior Partner at McKinsey and Dean of the Bower Forum, to unpack insights from The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out. We explore the critical role of self-awareness in leadership, why psychological safety is essential for high-performing teams, and how leaders can develop micro-habits that drive long-term success. We also examine why leadership is an ongoing journey, not a final goal, and why today’s CEOs must act as facilitators rather than dictators to thrive. Whether you're an aspiring executive or a seasoned leader, this conversation offers valuable insights into the future of leadership. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Malaysia faces a talent crunch as fewer young people are choosing to continue into their tertiary education, which means that there are fewer workers entering the job market. With many SPM graduates opting for low-paying jobs over further studies, the value of a degree comes into question as the youth consider the cost-to-benefits of a degree in the current landscape. What does this mean for businesses? What can companies do in order to adjust to the talent squeeze in the job market? Today, we speak with Derek Toh, Founder and CEO at Hiredly Group as we explore what is really happening, how businesses are coping, and whether Malaysia is heading towards a talent shortage or a talent transformation.

BNPL: Convenience or Trap? 41:02

Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services are everywhere, making it easier than ever to split payments with no interest… if you pay on time. But for many young Malaysians, BNPL is turning into a debt trap, with overdue payments piling up before they even realise it. Are these services really helping people manage their finances, or are they encouraging overspending? Are BNPL providers doing enough to educate users on the risks, or are they relying on people spending more than they can afford? We speak with Nirmala Supramaniam, Head of the Household Financial Education Department at Agensi Kaunseling dan Pengurusan Kredit (AKPK), to break down the reality of BNPL debt. We explore how young Malaysians can make smarter spending decisions, the role of financial literacy, and whether stricter regulations are needed to keep BNPL in check.

The New Trade Order: Must-Know Insights For Business Leaders 41:53

21 วันที่แล้ว41:53

41:53

Geopolitics is reshaping global trade, positioning Malaysia, other ASEAN nations, and the Global South as key winners. In this episode of Enterprise Explores, we speak with Aparna Bharadwaj, Managing Director & Partner at BCG Singapore and Global Leader of BCG’s Global Advantage Practice, as she unpacks the forces transforming international trade and what today’s business leaders must understand to navigate this dynamic landscape. Drawing on insights from BCG’s report ‘Great Powers, Geopolitics, and Global Trade’, the conversation dives into how North America is reducing its reliance on China, while ASEAN and other Global South markets are emerging as key players. Aparna explains the domino effect of shifting trade flows, the impact of rising tariffs, and the strategic importance of building geopolitical muscle in today’s volatile market. The discussion highlights opportunities for diversification, the benefits of resilient supply chains, and the potential for nations like Malaysia to capitalise on these trends. Here are some AI-generated key highlights from the conversation: Global Trade Shift: Trade is moving from free-market ideals to systems driven by geopolitics, economic security, and shifting corridors, sparked by the US-China trade slowdown and rising economic nationalism. Key Trade Corridors: Expect a $160 billion shrink in US-China trade, rapid growth in China–Global South flows, and significant increases in US–India trade—creating a domino effect across regions. ASEAN & Malaysia’s Edge: ASEAN, especially Malaysia, benefits from a "China plus X" strategy thanks to pragmatic policies, special economic zones, and opportunities in the halal market. Impact of US Tariffs: US tariffs, a pillar of the "America First" policy, and potential reciprocal measures are reshaping supply chains and trade balances globally. China’s New Focus & Global South: China is pivoting away from the West toward increased trade with ASEAN, BRICS+, and the global South, where faster GDP growth and resilient FDI flows prevail. Business Strategies: Key recommendations for businesses include strengthening supply chain resilience, building geopolitical intelligence, exploring new growth markets, considering nearshoring strategies, and diversifying market footprints.
