Malaysia’s current broadband penetration as of end of 2008 is 21.4%.Its till lags behind in broadband penetration compared to other more developed nations in Asia Pacific e.g. South Korea (92.8%), Hong Kong (85%), Singapore (78.5), Taiwan (66%), Australia (63.7%), Japan (62.7%) and New Zealand (55.7%).
In conclusion, RFID has the potential to contribute a total value added of USD 17,070 million (RM 59,744 million) to the Malaysian nominal GDP over the 5 year period from 2011 to 2015. This is based on the anticipated value added derived from level of adoption and invested sum of USD 28.57 million (RM 100 million) into the 5 core thrust sectors. In total, this translates to approximately 1.00% of the nominal GDP contribution from value added derived from RFID initiatives during this stated period.
In conclusion, RFID also showcases potential to bridge the gap of earning capacity per capita for every hour worked between Malaysia and other more affluent nations. Although the labor productivity analysis does show an increase of USD 0.247 (RM 0.865) to the nominal GDP per hour worked and this increase may seem small, it should be noted that this translates to approximately USD 1.976 (RM 6.916) per 8 hour working day average in 2015. When further analyzing this data, this increase of USD 0.247 to the nominal GDP per hour worked is equivalent to an increase of USD 17,070 million (RM 59,745 million) to the nominal GDP based on an estimated working population of 20,384,000 in 2015. This significant increase will contribute towards the Malaysian Government’s aim of moving the country towards a higher economy nation.
A strategic roadmap for RFID usage for the short, medium and long term need to be in place to achieve overall vision and aims. Relevant government ministries and agencies driving adoption need to be well coordinated to avoid overlap of activities.Stakeholders need to work closely together to ensure all plans materialized and no areas/sectors are overlooked. Invite foreign companies specializing in RFID related technologies to initiate R&D activities.More emphasis on R&D activities to be put in universities to develop innovations and future
Stonger government intervention to increase traction among end user segment.Government to work more closely with other stakeholders to promote and educate people on the possibilities with RFID through funding or mandates to increase adoption rate. Benefits of RFID deployment will not be achieved without understanding and fine-tuning various processes within the enterprise to accommodate this technology.A large portion of adopters will be related to government related sectors/applications; they need to ensure all business processes have been customized when planning an RFID rollout.
