The Malaysian FA market largely comprises an expanding base of local and Japanese enterprises. These firms span numerous industries, including electrical, electronic, automotive, food and beverage, and more, each of which requires various services for the FA products they use. Until now, the servicing of Mitsubishi Electric’s FA products in Malaysia has been handled by the company’s ASEAN FA Center in Singapore. To improve local access to timely service and support, Mitsubishi Electric has now decided to establish the Malaysia FA Center, which will also provide training, technical consultation and proposals for system enhancements and upgrades to meet the rising expectations of local customers.
