CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
YAM TUNKU ALI REDHAUDDIN IBNI TUANKU MUHRIZ
Independent Non-Executive Chairman
Taliworks has been resilient. While COVID-19 left an indelible mark in our history, leaving many institutions and individuals reeling from the effects of the pandemic, we were fortunate, and through persistence and perseverance, we had a successful year.
There is no denying that rising commodity prices, inflation, regional tensions and resulting supply shortages are emerging risks for 2022. Moreover, the resurgence in COVID-19 cases led by Omicron and its sub-variants continues to be a cause for concern. The global outlook remains weak, where the International Monetary Fund projected (in Jan 2022, before the war in Ukraine) that global economic growth will moderate from 5.9% in 2021 to 4.4% in 2022. In comparison, Malaysia is in a better position, with Bank Negara Malaysia projecting the economy to grow between 5.3% and 6.3%, supported by continued expansion in global demand, relaxation of containment measures, reopening of international borders, improvement in labour market conditions and recovery in private investment.
