Message from Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director
Dear Friends
It is always a pleasure to write a few
words for Berita UAC to keep our
friends and stakeholders informed of
events in the Company.
The Company recently announced its
financial performance for the half year
ended June 2009. Operating conditions
and business sentiments during the
first half of the year were challenging
as demand for the company’s core
building products was sluggish. Group
sales revenue for the half year was 9.5%
lower than that for the same period of
2008. Profit from core business was flat
but income from rental revenue and
investments in equities had helped to
bolster the group profit before tax for
the half year to RM11.252 million. The
near term outlook remains uncertain
and much depends on the state of the
economies of the different countries in
which our products are sold and used.
The full announcement on the Group’s
performance is available on the company’s
website at www.uac.com.my as well as
on the website of Bursa Malaysia.
Despite
the
difficult
business
environment, the Group continues
to invest in enhancing production
efficiencies and capabilities. A new
finishing machine was commissioned in
May. This new machine has enhanced
the finishing quality of our products at
higher output rates. We also continued
to invest in human capital through
staff training and recruiting new staff
to strengthen key departments in the
Group. A group wide Annual Family
Day was held in June in Ipoh. It was a
day which brought together employees
and their family members for a morning
of games for all ages with plenty of
food for all. Blood donation was one
of the activities in conjunction with the
Family Day.
As part of the company’s corporate
social responsibility programme, we
recently concluded the last in the series
of the UAC Architectural Students
Design Award Competition (‘UAC
ASDAC’) with different institutions of
higher learning. The primary objective
of UAC ASDAC is to prepare final year
architectural students for the market
place through impacting knowledge on
product attributes, usage and installation
knowhow on the range of UAC’s
products and Boustead Sissons Paints
Sdn. Bhd. and Johan Ceramics Berhad,
related companies in the LTAT/Boustead
Group of Companies who were also cosponsors of UAC ASDAC.
I thank all our stakeholders including
our business partners for their continued
support. I thank also all our dedicated
staff who collectively have made sacrifices
and pulled together as a cohesive team
during these difficult times.
I wish all our Muslim friends and
colleagues ‘Selamat Berpuasa’ during
Ramadan.

Utusan daripada Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif/Pengarah Urusan
Rakan-rakan sekalian,
Sesungguhnya saya berasa gembira
kerana dapat menulis sepatah dua kata
untuk Berita UAC agar rakan-rakan
dan para pemegang kepentingan kita
dapat dimaklumkan mengenai aktivitiaktiviti Syarikat.
Baru-baru
ini,
Syarikat
telah
mengumumkan prestasi kewangan
untuk separuh tahun pertamanya yang
berakhir pada Jun 2009. Keadaan
operasi dan sentimen perniagaan
pada separuh tahun pertama adalah
mencabar kerana permintaan terhadap
produk-produk binaan utama Syarikat
telah
berkurangan.
Perolehan
Kumpulan untuk separuh tahun
pertama menurun sebanyak 9.5%,
berbanding tempoh yang sama pada
tahun 2008. Keuntungan daripada
perniagaan teras adalah mendatar
tetapi perolehan dari hasil sewaan dan
pelaburan ekuiti berjaya meningkatkan
keuntungan sebelum cukai Kumpulan
bagi separuh tahun pertama kepada
RM11.252 juta. Jangkaan untuk masa
terdekat masih tidak menentu dan
banyak bergantung kepada keadaan
ekonomi negara-negara lain di mana
produk Syarikat kita ada dijual atau
digunakan. Pengumuman lengkap
prestasi Kumpulan boleh didapati di
laman web www.uac.com.my dan juga
di laman web Bursa Malaysia.
Walaupun keadaan peniagaan adalah
sukar, Kumpulan terus melabur untuk
mempertingkatkan kecekapan dan
keupayaan pengeluaran. Sebuah
mesin baru telah mula digunakan
pada bulan Mei. Mesin baru ini telah
meningkatkan kualiti kemasan produk
pada kadar pengeluaran yang tinggi.
Kita juga terus melabur dalam modal
insan melalui latihan penjawat dan
pengambilan penjawat baru untuk
mengukuhkan lagi jabatan-jabatan
utama dalam Kumpulan. Hari Keluarga
Tahunan Kumpulan telah diadakan
di Ipoh pada bulan Jun. Pada hari
tersebut, semua penjawat dan ahli
keluarga mereka telah berkumpul untuk
menikmati pelbagai acara permainan
dan menjamu selera. Antara aktiviti
yang diadakan bersempena dengan
Hari Keluarga tersebut ialah aktiviti
menderma darah.
Sebagai sebahagian daripada program
tanggungjawab sosial korporat Syarikat,
baru-baru ini kami telah berjaya
menamatkan siri terakhir pertandingan
‘UAC Architechtural Students Design
Award Competition’ (‘UAC ASDAC’)
dengan beberapa institusi-institusi
pengajian tinggi. Objektif utama ‘UAC
ASDAC’ ini adalah untuk menyediakan
pelajar tahun akhir jurusan senibina
dengan maklumat mengenai ciriciri produk, pengetahuan mengenai
penggunaan dan pemasangan pelbagai
produk UAC dan Boustead Sissions Paints
Sdn. Bhd. dan Johan Ceramics Berhad,
syarikat-syarikat berkaitan dengan LTAT/
Kumpulan Syarikat Boustead yang juga
penaja bersama ‘UAC ASDAC.’
Saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih
kepada semua pemegang kepentingan
kita termasuk rakan bersekutu di atas
sokongan berterusan mereka. Terima
kasih juga kepada semua penjawat yang
berdedikasi yang telah bersama-sama
berkorban dan berganding bahu sebagai
satu pasukan padu semasa menghadapi
kegawatan ini.
Sempena bulan Ramadan ini, saya juga
ingin mengucapkan ‘Selamat Berpuasa’
kepada para sahabat serta rakan-rakan
sekerja yang beragama Islam.

A Fun-Filled Family Day
for all Employees
U
AC Berhad recently organised an interactive family day for all its employees and family members. The family day is an annual
event to foster closer ties between employees and their families.
The family day started bright and early on a Saturday morning where more than 1,500 UAC employees and family members came
together for the event. The day’s events began with a simple ceremony of releasing a pair of doves by Chief Executive Officer /
Managing Director, Mr. Koo Hock Fee. This was followed by a half-day programme filled with fun, food and entertainment.
Throughout the day, there were numerous games for fathers, mothers and children. Among the activities that took place were a
colouring contest, lucky draws, telematches and a blood donation campaign.
Mr. Koo releasing a pair of doves
One of the main highlights was a cultural show featuring the essence of Malaysian culture through songs and dances. Families
were treated to a riveting musical performance comprising Malay wooden percussion instruments such as ‘seruling’ and a gong
by a specially invited band. There were also other interesting performances such as a bhangra dance and a tae-kwan-do and ‘silat’
demonstrations. The much anticipated ‘Tug-of-War’ contest attracted six teams competing to be the strongest team.
The children also demonstrated their creativity in the colouring and drawing competition. Screams of excitement could be heard
during a series of challenging games for the children. The adults were also not forgotten as they participated in the games organised
for them. A generous amount of food from KFC and Pizza Hut and drinks were also distributed throughout the entire family day.
Other events included employees and their spouses pairing to participate in the ‘Shampoo Me’ competition and the lucky draws.
Employees walked away with fabulous prizes from the lucky draws which included a fridge, DVD player and a wide range of
electrical appliances.
Overall, it was a
truly unforgettable
family affair as it
provided
parents
and their children a
wonderful avenue to
bond together in a
warm and entertaining
atmosphere. It certainly
ended on a high note as
families left the venue
with not only prizes and
presents but with smiles
on their faces.

Khazanah ‘Graduates Employability
Management Schemes’
I
n spite of the challenging economic
environment, UAC Berhad remains
committed towards its Corporate
Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives
as evidenced by its efforts to provide
training opportunities for graduates in
the employment market by supporting
Khazanah’s Graduate Employability
Management
Schemes
(GEMS)
programme.
GEMS is aimed at equipping graduates
preparing to enter the employment
market with commercially useful skills
and valuable experiences that would
boost their employment opportunities.
A total of 14 graduates from various
local universities joined UAC under
this programme during which they
will undergo six months of intensive
training in Production, Technical
Support, Quality Assurance/Research
& Development, Property, ICT,
Purchasing Department and in our
subsidary company, UAC Steel.
The trainees will be given on the job
training and perform their respective
duties under the guidance of their
mentors. Essentially, the six-months
programme will provide exposure
to technical operations and prepare
them for the working world in future.
Additionally, trainees will be encouraged
to widen their mindset and learn other
important lessons such as creative
thinking, resource management and
social skills that will mould them to
be responsible and efficient working
professionals.
Here is what one of our GEMS trainee
has to say about his experience with
us:
“I am very pleased with the exposure
I have received from working at UAC.
Firstly, it has enabled me to pursue
more career aspirations in line with
my major.
Secondly, to include a reputable
name such as UAC in my resume is
certainly a positive aspect. Thirdly,
it is a great place to kick-start my
career, obtain valuable experiences
and to better discover and understand
my job interests. It has also given
me a good perspective on the actual
responsibilities of an engineer. The
projects I have received have taught
me how to manage my time and
resources more effectively.
Fikri Rozaini b. Muhamad,
Bachelor of Mechanical
Engineering, UITM – Shah Alam
Attachment – Production Department
Apart from this, my mentor has
challenged me to think outside my
normal thought process and to stretch
my mental capabilities. Finally, it was
truly interesting to observe the topics
that I have studied in my business
classes being played out in front of me
everyday at work.
Overall, this programme has exceeded
my expectations. Together with the
presence of an incredible mentor,
wonderful peers and a comprehensive
learning experience within a short span
of time, I certainly could not have
asked for more. UAC has equipped
me with valuable skills that I can use
to succeed in the engineering world.”
