Anniversary
of the 15th STANDARDS
MALAYSIA
Nobody
could have fathomed that 15 years ago STANDARDS MALAYSIA would reach the place it is today. With more than
6000 standards developed and three accreditation schemes, STANDARDS MALAYSIA continues to increase its impact as the national standards and accreditation body in Malaysia. However, it does not mean that STANDARDS MALAYSIA can rest on its laurels and be complacent. With the launch of the
Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) by the Malaysian Government,
International Standards and Liberalisation (ISL), was highlighted under the
Strategic Reform Initiatives (SRI) as an important enabler to the New Key Economic Areas
(NKEAs). This further pushes STANDARDS MALAYSIA as the custodian of standards to the forefront and emphasizes on the relevance of STANDARDS MALAYSIA’s role to the country. It is hoped that STANDARDS MALAYSIA will continue to soar to achieve its vision “Accepted by Malaysians, Recognised by the World”.
Sambutan
Ulang Tahun ke-15 Standards Malaysia
Tiada
siapa dapat bayangkan 15 tahun yang lalu, STANDARDS MALAYSIA akan berada
di tahap ini pada hari ini. Dengan lebih daripada 6000 standard
dibangunkan dan 3 skim akreditasi, STANDARDS MALAYSIA
terus meningkatkan impaknya sebagai badan standard dan akreditasi
kebangsaan di Malaysia. Bagaimanapun, ini tidak bermakna, STANDARDS MALAYSIA
boleh menarik nafas lega serta lalai dalam menjalankan tanggungjawabnya.
Dengan pelancaran Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) oleh
Kerajaan Malaysia, International Standards and Liberalisation (ISL),
telah diketengahkan dibawah Strategic Reform Initiatives (SRI)
sebagai salah satu pembantu kepada New Key Economic Areas (NKEAs).
Dengan ini, STANDARDS MALAYSIA sebagai penjaga standards kini diletakkan di
barisan hadapan. Ini seterusnya menekankan betapa relevannya peranan
STANDARDS MALAYSIA kepada negara. Diharapkan STANDARDS MALAYSIA akan terus
maju kehadapan sehingga mencapai visinya “Diterima rakyat, Diiktiraf
dunia”.

Saya ucapkan tahniah kepada STANDARDS MALAYSIA diatas sambutan ulangtahun ke-15 penubuhannya.
Banyak yang telah dicapai oleh STANDARDS MALAYSIA ekoran pengkorporatan SIRIM Berhad pada 1 September 1996. Di saat itu, keputusan dibuat untuk mengasingkan aktiviti kawal selia standard dan akreditasi agar terus berada dibawah naungan Kerajaan. Fungsi dan peranan ini telah dapat terus dilaksanakan oleh STANDARDS MALAYSIA dengan jayanya.
Namun kita perlu ambil kira apa jua penambahbaikan di dalam mengimbas kembali segala pencapaian sepanjang 15 tahun kebelakangan dan menjadi garis panduan untuk pencapaian lebih cemerlang untuk masa akan datang.

On the occasion of STANDARDS MALAYSIA's 15th birthday on 28 August 2011, I'd like to express my gratitude to the people who made us where we are today; in particular the Hon. Minister of Science, Technology and
Innovation, senior officials from MOSTI, and the Chairman and members of the Malaysian Standards & Accreditation Council.
The road to achieve the vision "Accepted by Malaysians, Recognised by the World" is very much on track for STANDARDS MALAYSIA. I hope that all my people and our 'smart partners' will continue to be passionate and active in promoting the value of quality, standards and accreditation in Malaysia.
As Ramadhan is coming to an end, I would like to express my 'syukur' to be able to celebrate this holy month once again. With the month of Syawal dawning upon us, I would also like to take this opportunity to wish all Muslims out there, Happy Eid Mubarak, Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir
Batin.

On your 15th
anniversary, I wish to congratulate Standards Malaysia warmly
for your achievements.
Fifteen years is an
outstanding milestone and the active role of Standards
Malaysia has achieved as a member of ISO and in international
standardization in that time is clear. Standards Malaysia now
participates in255 ISO technical committees and subcommittees,
as well as taking part in the activities of the ISO Committee
on consumer policy (ISO/COPOLCO), the ISO Committee on
conformity assessment (ISO/CASCO)and the ISO Committee on
developing country matters (ISO/DEVCO).
Standards Malaysia is
also playing an active and important role in the ISO
governance. It can be proud of its re-election as a member of
ISO Council for the term 2010-2011 and also of the ISO
Technical Management Board for the term 2010-2012.
International
standardization plays an important role in the economic
development of a country, in being innovative and competitive
in markets worldwide, and finding solutions to global
challenges in the three dimensions of sustainable development
– environmental, economic and societal.
In
this, Standards Malaysia exemplifies the
theme of this year’s World Standards Day “Global
confidence”, which will be celebrated on 14 October.
International Standards
facilitate the growth and development of a country and
Standards Malaysia is an example of how involvement in and
promotion of standardization helps strengthen the national
infrastructure and supports the country to benefit from the
expansion of global trade and rapid changes in technology.
I wish Standards Malaysia
further success for many years to come.

ISO Secretary-General
