We Help Make Things Better
Through the provision of world class products and services, DRB-HICOM is not only one of the leading business entities in Malaysia, but
also one that has become synonymous with quality. This success however comes hand-in-hand with a corporate social responsibility,
something that DRB-HICOM attests to fully, and strives to uphold, in every aspect of its business and work culture. At DRB-HICOM, social
responsibility is part and culture of the business ethics and the Company consistently supports the social activities in which the society it
operates within.
Through a dedicated pool of resources and funds set aside annually, DRB-HICOM is actively involved in various social activities that
encompass various levels of society, they are mainly for the benefit of the less fortunate, the needy one and for the improvement or
development of a targeted community such as women, children and young society. This includes providing assistance in various forms to
orphans and underprivileged children, the disabled, senior citizens and the needy families. The Company also supports social and welfare
activities, volunteer organisations, women associations, welfare associations and foundations in Malaysia in its effort to reach out to as
many needy Malaysians as possible.
In addition to these groups, DRB-HICOM also provides assistance to non-government organisations (NGOs) such as the Malay Chamber of
Commerce and Industry Malaysia, which strives to develop and assist local entrepreneurs. Support is also given to the joint project with
Ministry of Entrepreneurial and Cooperative Development to aid its efforts in helping nurture young Bumiputera entrepreneurs through the
Young Entrepreneurs Project.

DRB-HICOM is also actively involved in the Malay Ping-Pong Championship of Malaysia - DRB-HICOM Chairman’s Trophy, which is in its
third year.
The championship which is organised by the Malay Ping-Pong Association of Kelantan is aimed at seeking and grooming young talent to
excel in the game, with the hope that they will then qualify to be part of the national squad and compete in national and international
tournaments.
Another aspect of DRB-HICOM’s corporate social responsibility involves the collaboration in establishing the temporary National Automotive
Museum at the Sepang International Circuit (SIC) under the auspices of the department of Museum and Antiquities. The objective is to
educate the Malaysian public and create greater awareness on Malaysia’s industrialisation drive which has since propelled the country to
greater heights. DRB-HICOM together with other leading corporate companies in Malaysia participate to showcase the automotive
components and parts produced by the respective company.
Apart from showcasing three units of Modenas motorcycles and a HICOM Perkasa truck, DRB-HICOM also displays automotive components
that are produced by companies under DRB-HICOM. This includes Malaysian Truck & Bus Sdn. Bhd., Oriental Summit Industries Sdn. Bhd.,
HICOM Diecastings Sdn. Bhd., HICOM Engineering Sdn. Bhd., HICOM Teck See Manufacturing Malaysia Sdn. Bhd., PHN Industry Sdn.
Bhd., Siemens VDO Instruments MY Sdn. Bhd., ZF Steerings (M) Sdn. Bhd., TRW Steering & Suspension (M) Sdn. Bhd., HICOM-Honda
Manufacturing Malaysia Sdn. Bhd., HICOM-Suzuki Manufacturing Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. and HICOM Yamaha Manufacturing Malaysia
Sdn. Bhd.

Human capital, the driving force behind all work processes, is a main
contributor to our achievements and successes thus far. As we look
into the future, we see again our 31,500 strong workforce rising up
to the challenges of business and change to move us forward. These
challenges, together with the new working paradigm leveraging on
knowledge management, prompted us to take a closer look into the
vital processes of Human Resource function as we strive to develop
our talents as the catalyst for performance.
HUMAN RE SOURCE MANAGEMENT
At DRB-HICOM, we believe that establishing a firm foundation in
management is the key to leveraging on our human capital. To achieve
this, the Human Resource function as a contributing business partner,
has undergone further refinements to retain its value-adding edge.
With the Human Resource Policies and Procedures and Code of
Ethics in place, the strategic initiatives and processes can now move
in unison towards the attainment of the Corporate goals.
DRIVING A PERFORMANCE WORK CULTURE
Being a result-focused Group, the emphasis on managing
competencies through Human Resource Management takes centre
stage in linking human capital with performance. The adoption of
competencies as the enabling agents for performance not only
streamlines Human Resource function but also channels our workforce
contributions to the achievements of DRB-HICOM. In our strive
towards building a performance-focused culture, we are also mindful
to incorporate the Human Resource Scorecard/Benchmarking
exercise for internal improvements as well as a comparative guide
to take us to the forefront. This also gives our Performance
Management System a critical reality impacting on the overall
performance of the Group.
DEVELOPING OUR HUMAN C APITAL
Growing our own talents and nurturing future leaders are part of our
on-going effort to manage our human capital. A talent pool is being
pursued to yield the talents for business continuity and organisational
renewal that will augur well with the needs of the Group as well as
being consistent with sound corporate governance.
In addition, our commitment to human investment and management
of careers provides the template for DRB-HICOM to engineer its
“software” for greater success. To realise this, our DRB-HICOM
Learning Centre (DHLC) has conducted some 100 programmes
benefiting more than 1,700 Group personnel of various levels.
In addition, the development of our human capital necessitated
the participation of our personnel in external workshops, locally and
overseas which befit the requirements of the jobs as well as the
Group. Apart from this, our close association with professional
bodies and institutes of higher learning for the overall growth of
our workforce complemented the pursuit of DHLC to transform
our workforce into knowledge workers.

S AFET Y, HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT (SHE)
DRB-HICOM’s continuous effort in providing a safe, healthy and
environmentally friendly workplace to all employees sees the SHE
Department playing a pivotal role in ensuring Group Companies
comply with all statutory and regulatory requirements. Apart from
the SHE audits, our Group SHE Department provides training and
guidance to ensure the attainment of these objectives. Our Group
Companies have also taken initiatives to optimise the usage of raw
materials thus generating less wastes. This is in line with our
aspiration to be an environmentally responsible corporate citizen.
Our SHE Steering Committee continues to set benchmarks and goals
for Group Companies to follow. These include the ILO-OSH 2001
and OSHAS 18000 Safety Management Systems as well as the ISO
14001 Environmental Management System. The emphasis in safety
awareness through SHE initiatives among Group Companies has
seen the reduction of industrial accidents and workdays lost as
compared to the previous year.
INDUSTRIAL REL ATIONS
The highly harmonious industrial relations climate within the Group
is consistent with the Group Policy on Industrial Relations. This is
evidenced through the non-occurrence of labour unrest and industrial
conflict as well as the successful conclusion of seven Collective
Agreements within industrial norms.
As a Malaysian conglomerate with diverse workforce, we pride
ourselves in fair treatment of all employees across the board,
regardless of race, creed and nationality. Despite the challenges
faced, we believe that the manifestation of a greater team
performance is dependent on a favourable working environment.
The healthy industrial relations climate experienced throughout the
Group has further strengthened our resolve and commitment to
develop our workforce at all levels which we believe will be
reciprocated by the value-adding contributions to the overall Group
performance.

Information Technology
The DRB-HICOM Technology Division continues its endeavors to
align ICT investment and deployment with the Groups business
objectives and priorities. Now in its third year of implementation,
the Group Strategic ICT Plan is on track to achieve DRB-HICOM’s
goal of being a technology-empowered organisation.
Having set the foundation of the Group’s ICT deployment through
the first strategic thrust of ‘Connect the Group’, and the second
strategic thrust, ‘Rationalise and Centralise Infrastructure’, DRB-
HICOM continues its efforts to elevate the Group’s ICT maturity by
intensifying its implementation efforts in the remaining thrusts
identified in the Strategic ICT Plan.
In line with the ever-increasing reliance of businesses on information
and the growing importance of information assets, the Company
launched the Group Information Security Policy in safeguarding the
confidentiality, integrity and availability of the Group’s information
assets. The exercise aims to equip Group companies with
standardised policies, practices and procedures in handling the
Group’s information assets.
During the financial year under review, emphasis was given to
converge the Group’s portfolio of software applications with the
third strategic thrust. In executing the strategy, an implementation
approach called the ‘Federated Application Architecture’ was
adopted, which provides an enterprise-wide foundation of core,
common applications, across all DRB-HICOM entities. The
framework will specify applications that are common to an industry
cluster whilst at the same time recognising and catering for any
unique application requirements of a company within each cluster.
Another key project initiated during the period under review was
the shared Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System adopted by
several of the automotive component manufacturing companies
within the Group. Once completed, the project will result in better
efficiency through the streamlined internal business processes and
supply chain operations of the companies.
The fourth and final strategic thrust of the Group Strategic ICT Plan,
aimed at supporting decision making processes through the provision
of integrated information to all levels of management, also came on
line during the period under review, with the commencement of a
Business Intelligence project. The project will create a common
corporate reporting and analysis mechanism to provide critical
business information and key metrics to gauge the health of business
units within the Group.
With all the four strategic initiatives under the Group Strategic ICT
Plan in place, DRB-HICOM is now well poised to evolve itself into a
technology-empowered group to achieve its vision.

Our Environment
W A ST E N OT , W A N T N OT
In a bid to continue its efforts to conserve the environment and
increase the level of awareness on environment preservation, Alam
Flora Sdn. Bhd. (a member of DRB-HICOM) embarked on a unique
project targeted at Malaysian students, who would serve as
“environment ambassadors” and write about their observations and
experiences. The “Waste Not, Want Not” project, which was jointly
carried out with the Newspaper in Education (NIE) unit of the New
Straits Times (NST), was highly successful as the “environment
ambassadors” took turns to interview the personnel involved and
write in-depth articles on the importance of waste management,
seven of which were published in the NST.
The initiative involved a field trip for the 37 students aged between
11-14 years to visit a solid waste management plant and understand
the processes involved. This also included an overview of the waste
management industry in Malaysia, along with general tips and
education on how to embark on environmentally-friendly practices
such as recycling, source separation, scavenging at landfill sites
and composting. In addition to being given insights into waste
management, irresponsible waste disposal and littering issues were
also discussed with the students.
The students were also taken to the Kuala Lumpur Transfer Station
(KLTS) plant where they learnt how waste was transferred to the
landfill in Puchong. In addition to this, they were also given a briefing
on Alam Flora’s various environment conservation efforts, including
its recycling buy-back centre at the KLTS compound which is
open to the public. As part of their education process, a workshop
was held at the NST’s premises, whereby several Alam Flora
representatives spent time reiterating the importance of recycling
and waste management. The entire process culminated in the seven
articles which were then published in the NST, aimed at a wider
audience.
The “Waste Not, Want Not” project with the NST is among the
various initiatives Alam Flora has embarked on in an effort to
instill greater awareness on the importance of effective waste
management practices and recycling, particularly amongst the
younger generation.
