AUTOMEX DEBUTS IN PENANG, DRIVING MALAYSIA’S INDUSTRY 5.0 TRANSFORMATION

Organised by Informa Markets Malaysia, AUTOMEX Penang 2025 is running from 4–6 November at the Setia SPICE Convention Centre. The event was inaugurated by YB En Jagdeep Singh Deo, Deputy Chief Minister II of Penang, Dato’ Seri Wong Siew Hai, President of the Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association (MSIA), and Gerard Leeuwenburgh, Country General Manager of Informa Markets Malaysia, ushering in a premier platform for innovation, collaboration, and the future of manufacturing technology.

Spanning 5,500 square meters, AUTOMEX Penang features more than 200 leading brands and companies showcasing the latest in robotics, industrial automation, and smart factory solutions, and is expected to attract over 5,000 trade visitors.

For over a decade, AUTOMEX has been held alongside METALTECH in Kuala Lumpur, establishing itself as Malaysia’s definitive platform for automation innovation. Its expansion to Penang reinforces both the state’s manufacturing growth and the government’s vision for Industry 4.0 – and signals a step toward Industry 5.0, where human creativity and technology work hand-in-hand.

“By bringing AUTOMEX to Penang, we’re not just expanding our footprint; we’re reaffirming our commitment to Malaysia’s manufacturing ecosystem,” said Gerard Leeuwenburgh, Country General Manager of Informa Markets Malaysia. “Penang is where innovation happens. From automation design and semiconductor production to smart manufacturing systems, this state embodies what AUTOMEX stands for: progress, partnership, and possibility.”

A key highlight of AUTOMEX Penang 2025 is its strategic collaboration with the Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association (MSIA), elevating the event into a multi-dimensional platform for collaboration and innovation. MSIA, in partnership with Informa Markets, is organising the Silicon Malaysia Conference 2025 concurrently within the event, bringing together global leaders and innovators in the semiconductor and automation sectors to explore new frontiers in manufacturing technology.

“This collaboration bridges two of Malaysia’s most dynamic industries – automation and semiconductors,” said Gerard Leeuwenburgh. “By aligning these strengths, we’re creating opportunities for innovation and growth that will drive Malaysia’s competitiveness well into the future.”

“Our theme for the Silicon Malaysia Conference 2025 , ‘Made by Malaysia‘, reflects our ambition to lead, not only in what we manufacture, but in what we can design, develop, and imagine,” added Dato’ Seri Wong Siew Hai, President of MSIA.

AUTOMEX Penang 2025 supports the National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS) and the New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030), which aim to transform Malaysia into a global hub for high-value, high-technology industries. These initiatives align closely with Penang2030, the state’s plan to become a Family-Focused, Green, and Smart State that Inspires the Nation.

Recognised as the Silicon Valley of the East, Penang contributes nearly 30% of Malaysia’s electrical and electronics (E&E) exports and hosts over 350 multinational corporations alongside thousands of SMEs. This robust industrial ecosystem – backed by strong policies and skilled talent – makes the state the natural choice for AUTOMEX’s expansion.

In 2024 alone, Penang attracted over RM30 billion in approved manufacturing investments, with global automation leaders such as M.A.i, KUKA Robotics, and HP Inc. continuing to invest and expand.

AUTOMEX Penang arrives at a pivotal moment in global manufacturing transformation. The global industrial automation market, valued at USD 178 billion in 2023, is projected to nearly double by 2031, signalling an unprecedented wave of technological adoption and industrial transformation.

At the heart of this evolution, AUTOMEX Penang connects people, ideas, and technologies – serving as a platform where local SMEs meet global technology providers and Malaysia’s manufacturing story continues to advance through shared expertise and innovation.

“Automation is not about replacing people – it is about empowering them,” said YB En Jagdeep Singh Deo, Deputy Chief Minister II of Penang. “It allows our workers to focus on creativity, design, and innovation – the very qualities that make Penang what it is today.”

In line with this vision, the Penang State Government has invested in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), upskilling programmes, and smart city infrastructure, preparing 150,000 Malaysians by 2030 for high-value roles in design, advanced packaging, and smart manufacturing. Green and sustainable development is a key priority, with initiatives including Batu Kawan Industrial Park 2, green-tech zones, and resilient water, energy, and digital infrastructure.

“Penang is not only ready for Industry 4.0 – we are shaping the future of Industry 5.0,” emphasised YB En Jagdeep Singh Deo. “What truly makes Malaysia and Penang stand out is collaboration. No one succeeds alone. The partnership between government, industry, and academia is what drives real change.”

Since its inception, AUTOMEX has evolved from a trade show into a strategic industry institution, where breakthroughs in robotics, AI, IoT, and smart manufacturing are showcased, and partnerships are forged. By connecting technology providers with local SMEs, multinational corporations, and talent, the exhibition accelerates Malaysia’s transformation into a high-tech, high-trust, human-centric manufacturing nation.

As productivity gains multiply and new opportunities emerge, AUTOMEX Penang is set to become a signature annual event for Malaysia’s automation community – a hub where technology meets talent, and where Penang continues to lead the nation’s manufacturing excellence.

“When history looks back at this decade, let it say that Malaysia dared to lead – not because we were the biggest or oldest, but because we were the boldest,” said Dato’ Seri Wong Siew Hai. 

The exhibition addresses the complete spectrum of attendee needs – from C-suite executives charting digital transformation strategies to engineers seeking specific technical solutions, procurement professionals evaluating supplier partnerships, students exploring robotics careers, and policymakers shaping Malaysia’s industrial future.

AUTOMEX Penang 2025 runs from 4–6 November 2025 at the Setia SPICE Convention Centre. For more information or to register, please visit www.automex.com.my.

Laos Kicks Off First-Ever Digital Census with Nationwide Field Data Collection

First-ever digital census launches in Laos. (Photo supplied by UNFPA Laos)

UNFPA – Santiphab Phomvihane, Minister of Finance and Deputy Head of the National Steering Committee for the 2025 Population and Housing Census, led a field visit in Vientiane Capital on 3 November, accompanied by his delegation.

The visit marked the launch of nationwide data collection for Laos’s first digital census.

The census will run from 3 November to 28 December, following the training of 11,000 enumerators who will collect information from all residents and households using handheld digital devices, including foreign nationals who have lived in Laos for six months or longer.

The delegation included Athsaphangthong Siphandone, Vientiane Mayor, Visone Laomao, Deputy Head of the Lao Statistics Bureau (LSB), and Bakhtiyor Kadyrov, UNFPA Representative, alongside officials from the central census office and local authorities.

They visited Chanthabouly district to observe enumerators conducting household interviews and to engage with local officials on potential issues to ensure a smooth enumeration process.

The 2025 Population and Housing Census will collect data on population size, structure, growth, and distribution, as well as ethnicity, disability, housing, access to services, and education.

The results will guide government policies, support the 10th National Socio-Economic Development Plan (2026–2030), track progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals, and strengthen strategies for empowering women, youth, and persons with disabilities.

During the visit, Santiphab stressed the census’s importance and urged local committees to facilitate enumerators.

“Accurate data is fundamental to effective national development. When data is inaccurate, policies and plans risk being misaligned with the real needs and priorities of the people,” he said.

Bakhtiyor Kadyrov noted that, after four years of preparation, nationwide field data collection had officially begun. He highlighted UNFPA’s support alongside development partners including DFAT Australia, Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC), Luxembourg, GIZ, the United States, and China Aid.

“UNFPA is proud to be part of this national effort. Together with our partners, we will continue to provide the support needed to ensure the success of this first-ever digital Population and Housing Census. We believe the census is not only about counting the population, but about recognizing and empowering people, because behind every number is a person, a story, and a dream,” he said.

Preparations for the 5th Population and Housing Census began in 2021 under the guidance of the Census Steering Committee, with technical support from UNFPA and partners. The 2025 census will be the first digital census in Lao history, enhancing data accuracy and accessibility while laying the foundation for a modernized national statistical system.

Leaf-Wrapped Lao Snack Mieng Goes Viral in Vientiane

Leaf-Wrapped Lao Snack Mieng Goes Viral in Vientiane.

A traditional Lao snack has gone viral. Mieng, a leaf-wrapped delicacy, is experiencing a surge in popularity after a TikTok video showing crowds lining up to buy it captured the nation’s attention.

With the cluster fig season now underway, more people are discovering the snack’s unique flavors and fresh, local ingredients.

The latest craze, Mieng Mark Duea, features fillings wrapped in tender cluster fig leaves. Each portion combines cluster fig, winged bean, rice paddy herb, and wild betel leaf, all tied together with a fragrant lemongrass sauce that highlights the dish’s fresh taste.

Ouvanda Xayavong, known locally as Pun, runs a small fruit stall in Vientiane and is among those promoting this snack. Originally from Thakhek district in Khammouane, Pun shared her special sauce recipe, which she says is the key to the dish’s success.

Her sauce includes lemongrass, garlic, chilies, salt, sugar, and fermented fish, the more fish, the better the taste.

All the ingredients to mix together.

Pun explained, “We use fermented fish from my district. It gives a smooth, rich aroma. People love it not just for the taste but because we put our heart into it.”

Mieng is still a rare find in Vientiane, but word is spreading fast. Once people try it, they tell their friends, and soon everyone wants a taste. 

Customers say they can’t get enough of it, describing the flavor as deeply Lao, thanks especially to the savory note of fermented fish.

“This snack brings back memories of home,” said a 35-year-old customer. “The ingredients are simple, but the taste is very Lao. It’s a real Lao snack.”

A set of Mieng costs only LAK 20,000, and comes with cluster fig, winged bean, wild betel leaf, and a flavorful lemongrass sauce. Some customers like to add pork crackling for an extra layer of crunch and flavor.

The snack has won fans of all ages. High school students Taytay and Dumex said they enjoy the mix of salty, spicy, and slightly bitter tastes that make Mieng so addictive. 

With its fresh ingredients, distinctive flavors, and deep roots in Lao tradition, Mieng is quickly becoming a must-try snack in Vientiane.
