1st (Thu) & 2nd (Fri) December, 2011 Menara KL, Kuala Lumpur “That (price-fixing) is like a cartel....The Malaysian Competition Commission (MyCC) will take action on any kind of ‘ganging-up’ among industry players.” - Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaacob. (Source: Sunbiz - 18th Oct, 2011) WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND With the new Malaysian Competition Act 2010 coming into force on 1st Jan 2012 any enterprise engaging in the fixing of prices or other trading conditions with their competitors, would face serious infringement penalties. Price fixing, predatory pricing, consumer protection, abuse of dominance, bid-rigging, cartelisation, imposing barriers to entry, anti-trust, prohibited horizontal and vertical agreements, etc are some of the terms which may haunt Malaysian Enterprises if they are not ready for this Act. Any commercial sector and enterprise can be investigated by the Malaysian Competition Commission (“MyCC”) for potential breaches of the Competition Act 2010. Enterprises engaged in commercial activities would either have to get their practices and house in order by 2011 or risk being challenged in regard to potentially anti-competitive conduct. The respective Competition Commission and Authorities of numerous jurisdictions have taken action against, amongst others, employment agencies, coach operators, ticketing agencies, modeling agencies, vitamin cartels, air cargo operators, airlines, etc. Globally almost every sector has faced competition and antitrust challenges and some familiar business sectors would include oil & gas, airlines, financial institutions, the pharmaceutical industry, manufacturing, ports, telecommunications, construction and healthcare. To date, more than 100 countries around the world have either some form of competition or antitrust policies or legislation in place. Besides your Legal Advisors it is critical that your senior management, directors, heads of department, business strategists, management staff, sales and marketing divisions and other visionaries have a clear understanding of this new law and its implications. It would be unthinkable for managers to have to explain to their board of directors that after months or years of planning and executing strategies, a corporation/organisation is being investigated by MyCC and could end up facing a very substantial infringement penalty, which could reach up to 10% of worldwide turnover of the organisation (which could include the worldwide turnover of a group of companies). Attend this comprehensive workshop and get your pressing questions mainly on the What, Why, Who, When, Where and How surrounding the Competition Act 2010 answered.
