Conpak CPA Limited successfully hosted the "Expanding into ASEAN: Malaysia Investment Strategies - Factory Setup & Tax Policies" seminar at Four Seasons Hotel in Futian, Shenzhen on 22 July 2025. The event attracted many senior executives and financial leaders from Chinese enterprises concerned about the Southeast Asian market, especially those planning to invest and set up factories in Malaysia, with overwhelmingly positive feedback.
The seminar addressed key concerns of Chinese enterprises entering the Malaysian market, providing in-depth analysis of critical considerations and optimisation strategies for investing and setting up factories there. As a core keynote speaker, Ms. Hazel Yim, Director of Conpak, delivered a keynote presentation titled "Investment Structure Setup & Oversea Direct Investment ODI Application". Ms. Yim analysed in detail how to build an efficient cross-border investment structure, and focused on the application of Foreign-Sourced Income Exemption (FSIE) policy, presenting practical tax planning approaches to help businesses reduce overall tax burdens and enhance investment returns.
