GE and ASEAN.Innovation andpartnership at work.

With over a century of history in ASEAN, GE is, until today, a partner for sustainable growth in the region. One that continues to support the development of its infrastructure and people. One that changed this region for the better when, in April 1890, it installed the Philippines’ first electric street lights on Real Street, in Manila.

Since then, we have grown to more than 7,500 employees in ASEAN with offices in nine countries, bringing us closer to our local customers. This has not only helped us to deepen our relationships with them but it has also enabled us to localize our solutions to address their challenges.

Building, Powering, Curing, and Moving to make the world better has been a GE promise in ASEAN.

How have we delivered in this respect? Let us consider a few examples. Our energy-efficient wind turbines which can generate 1.5 megawatts (MW) of energy and components for power generation are made in Hai Phong, Vietnam for export worldwide. Every 38 seconds, an aircraft equipped with GE technology takes off in ASEAN. In 2012 alone, one in five people in ASEAN flew on such an aircraft. Life-saving medical technology is now within reach of millions of people in the region with GE's modern and affordable medical solutions. Our longstanding support for Indonesia's railway infrastructure, which has lasted over six decades, now moves 200 million Indonesians annually.

We keep our promises not only through solving local challenges, but by offering solutions that bring this region to the world, and the world to this region.

Our ability to thrive in ASEAN for over a century is derived from answering a very simple―and yet profoundly intricate―question: "What does ASEAN need?"

Evidently, the answer also demands that we reach tomorrow's goals from where we are today. Consider this: from 2010 to 2020 alone, ASEAN's workforce is expected to grow from 388 million to 444 million. The rise of the middle class is expected to grow by 50 percent to 160 million by 2015. The consumption of energy, water, healthcare, and transportation will rise in tandem.

GE will leverage its scale, industry expertise, and technology to help address these needs through partnerships, localization, and co-creating solutions with our customers. After all, each nation will have its own unique set of challenges which will be solved through a finely-tuned and responsive process.

The future prospects for the ASEAN region are upbeat as it inches towards integration as a single market in 2015. We commit to being a long-term partner with the region and to weave ourselves ever more into the fabric of communities we serve and will carry on well into the future.

Let me invite you to take a look at our people, partners and customers with whom we work to drive sustainable growth in the ASEAN region and make a difference in the lives of the communities here.

GE began its journey in Southeast Asia more than a century ago.

In 1890, GE installed the Philippines’ first electric street lights in Manila. These street lights were amongst the earliest in the region, so fortunate passersby along Real Street, Manila, bore witness to a genuine technological marvel of the time. As the Philippines became a part of US territory at the turn of the century, it was the earliest beneficiary of GE technology. The first hydroelectric power plant came into operation in Benguet in 1915. Benguet Consolidated Mining Company, owner of the facility, built two additional plants using GE generators to match the increasing demand for electricity. Due to GE's growing presence in the Philippines, the International General Electric Company established its first affiliated company operation in the country in 1935.

GE increased its coverage in the region eastward to Indonesia, where it supplied substation and car equipment to the Java State Railways in 1924 to electrify its railways for suburban passenger service. Similar to the marvel of electric street lights in Manila 30 years prior, hundreds of Indonesians were reported to have run excitedly alongside the trains shouting at the top of their voices, whilst others rode on the most modern equipment of the time. Shortly after, the Redjo Agoeng, one of the most prominent sugar factories in Madiun, Indonesia, adopted GE’s electric motors in its operations, becoming Java’s first sugar mill to install modern, electrically-driven grinding rolls.

When the State of Brunei began searching for its own power generation source in 1967, it turned to GE for support. GE supplied an 8,750 kilowatt gas turbine which underwent a baptism by fire when it was tested to the limit to illuminate Brunei’s arches, buildings, and the Sultan’s Mosque during his coronation. Impressed with the reliability of the unit, the country ordered two more

gas turbines after this event to support the entire electricity demand of the country.

Back in the Philippines, its huge iron ore reserves lacked processing facilities. GE supported the establishment of Iligan Integrated Steel Mills Inc. in 1969, the Philippines' and South East Asia’s first integrated steel mill, through its expertise and equipment installation. Besides helping the country produce quality steel products and realize maximum industrial growth, this achievement was a source of pride amongst the people.

In 1981, GE played an important role in supplying and maintaining equipment for the Indonesian state oil and gas enterprise, Pertamina, in its Arun gas field. Besides boosting the profile of that industry in Indonesia, it also increased the contribution of the industry to national productivity. In that same year, GE opened a new aviation service facility near Changi Airport in Singapore that provided repair service for critical parts of aircraft engines.

The 1980s was also an important time for other aviation achievements in the region. For example, GE played a major role in the design, equipping, and building of the Aircraft Engine Center in Jakarta, Indonesia, and Thai Airways International's test cells. GE supported a radio medical clinic program in Thailand in 1983 to help connect doctors in city hospitals with nurses, midwives and healthcare workers in remote villages.

One hundred years have gone by and our history is peppered with accomplishments such as these. Not only are we growing from strength to strength, we are also deeply committed to being a partner with the region for many decades to come.

Our History in ASEAN

76 | GE ASEAN

A reliable supply of energy and access to clean water are fundamental needs for a community to live, grow and develop. In every ASEAN country, the disparity between those with easy access to electricity in the urban centers and those in the rural areas who do not, precludes millions from enjoying the benefits of having a power supply.

Furthermore, with a burgeoning population, energy generation concerns abound in light of the region's energy source limitations. With the fluctuating global price of oil due to a limited supply of easily accessible wells, where then will the region turn to, to meet its energy needs?

GE has responded to this by offering a series of intelligent and advanced power solutions that have already been implemented throughout ASEAN. Through a combination of grid modernization, smart networks, efficient gas-powered turbine generators, and alternative energy sources, GE will continue to provide what the region needs to advance. The transformation of the region’s economies is underway. We partner to power it .

Powering

98 | GE ASEAN

17,000 beacons of light

Indonesia's 17,000 islands make it difficult for its rural areas to receive electricity as they rely on distant main power grids or are powered by small, localized grids. To realize its economic growth potential, Indonesia will need to generate even more electricity as well as increase its electrification rate. Indonesian utility company, Perusahan Listrik Negara (PLN) is on track to achieve this, with current installed capacity at 42 gigawatts (GW). However, from 2012 to 2021, the plan is to add 57 GW of capacity on top of the current capacity.

GE has installed more than 700 units of gas engines in Indonesia that operate using natural and non-natural gas fuels, including its Jenbacher and Waukesha generators. A third of these engines is used to generate renewable and clean energy derived from waste such as wood chips, palm oil mill effluent, biogas from agricultural waste, low-rank coal syngas, coal bed methane, and other oil and gas sector byproducts. Furthermore, GE’s latest technologies in power generation, such as its Frame 6B 3-Series, Frame 9, LM6000-PG, and Frame 6FA Aeroderivative gas turbines have also been implemented in Indonesia.

Different power challenges, one answer: GE

In the 1970s, GE’s first Frame 5 gas turbine was supplied to the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) for use at its Lan Krabue power plant. Since then, EGAT's gas turbine fleet has grown to over 100 units with a combined production of 8,000 megawatts (MW). Besides EGAT, GE also supplies other Thai energy producers like PTT, Ratchaburi, and Tri Energy with combined-cycle gas turbine equipment.

EGAT's Saha Power Plant uses two GE LM6000 Aeroderivative gas turbines each rated at 44 MW. The gas turbines, which began producing power in early January 1999, provide power to EGAT and other manufacturing companies in the Saha Industrial Park. The Rojana power plant also features two LM6000 gas turbines supplied by IHI, and these units began commercial operation in late February 1999.

Thailand’s largest chemical producer, PTT Utility, has a 13-year contractual service agreement with GE to ensure its Rayong power plant operates smoothly. The gas turbines there generate more than 300 MW of power to run more than 15 petrochemical plants.

Vietnam's energy revolution is in the wind

Located about 200 kilometers southwest of Ho Chi Minh City, in the Mekong Delta region, the Bac Lieu project was the first wind farm in Vietnam. Built using GE wind turbines, the project was designed to protect the environment of the region, known as the “rice basket” of the country, which accounts for the largest amount of Vietnam’s rice exports. The 10 wind turbines in Bac Lieu produced 16 MW of power which joined the national grid in June 2013. The second phase of the project will involve the construction and installation of more than 50 GE wind turbines.

The Hai Phong wind turbine facility manufactures generators for 1.5 MW wind turbines with components sent to service centers around the globe. The facility employs about 600 Vietnamese. With total export volume in excess of US$271 million, the wind turbine facility is amongst the best-performing industries in Hai Phong.

A new grid for reliable, affordable power

Alongside Vietnam’s state utilities provider, National Power Transmission Corporation (a subsidiary of Vietnam Electricity, EVN), GE is working to improve power transmission by upgrading the country’s power infrastructure through advanced solutions such as fuseless technology. GE’s series capacitor banks will be installed as part of the upgrade of the 500 kilovolt Pleiku–Phu Lam transmission line to increase power capacity from 1,000 amps to 2,000 amps.

Measuring 500 kilometers in length, the Pleiku–Phu Lam line is the backbone of Vietnam’s north-to-south power transmission. Increasing the capacity of the line to transmit power across the country more efficiently will enable EVN to mobilize generation sources to more effectively meet power demand. In addition, with a fresh supply of approximately 800 MW channeled to the southern area of Vietnam, lower electricity costs and a more reliable and stable power transmission grid will benefit surrounding communities.

Intelligent meters for savvy consumers

In 2012, GE strengthened its position for the Advanced Metering Infrastructure Integrated Solution (AMIIS) pilot project with MERALCO, the Philippines’s largest distribution facility which serves 25 percent of the country’s population and over 5 million customers in Manila alone. One hundred and eighty households in Rizal, a province adjoining Metro Manila, participated in a pilot-test under the AMIIS project using prepaid meters.

With GE’s smart meters, MERALCO customers will be able to monitor their daily energy consumption and more effectively manage their electricity usage. Aside from giving consumers the responsibility of managing their energy usage, GE’s AMIIS package enables remote access to the meters, which will further enhance MERALCO’s ability to improve monitoring of outages, service connections, power quality and power demand in real time. MERALCO plans to offer its new AMIIS solution to 40,000 customers within its franchise area, which covers the Metro Manila region and its neighboring provinces.

Rice, Asia's wonder crop

Currently, only 50 percent of rural villages in Cambodia have access to electricity with demands for power growing at 25 percent a year. Located in the country’s rural rice milling region of Kamphong Cham, the SOMA Group selected GE’s Waukesha gas engine technology to power its Hak Se mill.

Cambodia produces about 400,000 tons of concentrated rice husks annually, which can be used as a reliable source of biogas to produce renewable energy. After the rice husk is converted into biogas, two GE VHP 5904 Waukesha engines burn it to generate 1.5 MW of renewable electricity. Less than 2 kilograms of husk can produce one kilowatt-hour of electricity. Part of the power will support the rice mill’s operations while surplus electricity will be sold to the local grid, providing an economical power supply and improving the living standards of people in the area.

This project helps to meet the goals of Cambodia‘s Rural Electrification Program which is focused on supplying electricity to every village by 2020 and connecting 70 percent of the country’s households to the grid by 2030.

21st century fuel

In renewable energy, GE is partnering with the Indonesian utility company, PLN and other partners to pilot a biomass power plant that uses wood chips and bamboo as fuel using Jenbacher technology. This pilot power plant is expected to generate 1 MW of electricity when it is completed. In the first year, PLN will buy hard wood chips from suppliers as feedstock. Simultaneously, in the second year, PLN will use its own supply of hard wood from this plantation.

Being a part of Petronas’ first FLNG

Malaysia is GE’s Asia Pacific headquarters for its Turbomachinery Solutions and Downstream Technology Solutions for the company’s oil and gas business. GE has a well-defined footprint in the country and is working with the national oil and gas company, PETRONAS, to provide advanced turbo compression technology for its Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Train 9 project in Bintulu, Sarawak. GE’s compression trains are vital elements of the liquefaction process where natural gas is cooled to a liquid state.

GE will also supply its gas turbine-driven compressor packages to PETRONAS for a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility that is being developed off the coast of Malaysia. The facility, the first of its kind in Malaysia, is scheduled to be implemented in 2015. It will be moored about 180 kilometers off the coast of Bintulu, Sarawak, and is designed to produce 1.2 million tons of LNG a year.

The project is an extension of GE's global frame agreement with PETRONAS, under which GE supplies a range of gas turbine packages for its projects worldwide.

GE's refined technology propels Thaioil

Thaioil Power's investment in GE’s advanced Dry Low NOx (DLN) technology was aimed at replacing the combustion systems on two GE Frame 6B gas turbines at a cogeneration plant in Sriracha in the Chonburi Province. The 130 MW plant supplies power and steam for the Thaioil refinery at the site, with excess power sold to EGAT, the national power generation company. The refinery produces 275,000 barrels of oil per day, which represents more than a fifth of Thailand’s total refining capacity. As a result of the DLN technology upgrade, the Sriracha cogeneration plant now has the lowest level of nitrogen oxide emissions for any power generation site in Thailand: 10 parts per million. In other words, the emissions reduction per gas turbine at the Thaioil site is equivalent to taking 6,750 cars off the road in Bangkok. DLN also uses less steam, freeing up steam energy to be used in the oil refinery processes.

How clean can a glass of water be?

The GE Singapore Water Technology Center at the National University of Singapore (NUS) is a key part of our Global Technology network that develops advanced water technologies to solve some of the world’s most pertinent water challenges. Singapore’s vision and commitment to innovation in the field of water makes it an ideal location for our center and our partnership with NUS enables us to undertake collaborative projects in the field of water purification.

The Technology Center brings talented scientists and engineers together to work on state-of-the-art technologies such as advanced membrane technology, analytical technology, membrane chemicals, and systems engineering. We are working to develop new solutions for low-energy seawater desalination, water reclamation, and more efficient water reuse that constitute advancing fundamental research and innovation in water treatment.

1716 | GE ASEAN

New lights, new tune

GE has partnered with Tune Hotels, a major budget hotel chain in Asia, to jointly explore and implement green solutions across its portfolio of hotels around the world. GE has so far retrofitted 2,876 light points with energy-efficient light-emitting diode (LED) lights across three Tune Hotels in Malaysia. The LEDs used to create ambient lighting in the hotel interior were able to achieve the luminance level required by the customer whilst being more energy-efficient than the fluorescent lighting used previously. Furthermore, GE's Tetra Signage system was used to illuminate the hotel's signage.

With GE’s new lighting solutions, Tune Hotels will enjoy estimated savings of 30 to 40 percent in terms of energy and maintenance costs. This translates to a payback period of approximately 1.6 years. From an environmental perspective, the reduced energy consumption can eliminate 824,999 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per year, which is equivalent to planting 102.3 acres of new trees.

Always ahead of the pack

The Metro Turf Racetrack project is a 45-hectare development in Batangas, Philippines. It is a modern race facility that includes a 1,525 meter long racetrack surrounded by a total of 46 light posts, 39 of which encircle the oval while the rest are attached to the grandstand. The GE 1500 Powerspot lighting solution was used at the Metro Turf as it met stringent standards governing night time races where capturing various elements of the race require sufficient illumination. As the project used fewer light fixtures than usual, the Metro Turf also enjoys lower energy consumption during its operation.

1918 | GE ASEAN

The rapid growth of the region's demographics has, for the better part of the past century, not been supported by an increase in basic healthcare provisions. Whilst this holds true for many rural folks, those in the urban areas are themselves deprived of access to advanced medical treatment due to high costs and lack of accessibility to these technologies. The disparities in medical services between and within countries will prove to be an impediment to national growth if complications in maternal health and terminal diseases go unchecked.

GE is working with governments and private providers across the region to develop the infrastructure and solutions required to meet these enormous healthcare needs. We are providing advanced diagnostic and treatment tools to help physicians better detect and treat diseases, and are delivering patient record systems to lower costs and enhance patient care. The region faces a gap in healthcare and our priority is to work with government agencies and healthcare institutions to help deliver effective healthcare in a safe and efficient manner.

Healthcare

2120 | GE ASEAN

Modern healthcare solutions delivered

In Indonesia, nearly 50% of the population lives in a peripheral region1, a region that is isolated from another region because of physical and human factors. Meeting the needs of the population, especially in these rural areas, is an important factor in meeting the country’s Millennium Development Goals to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates.

Rural healthcare is an area where GE has an innovative solution: Vscan 1.3, a pocket-sized, battery-powered ultrasound device. Specially adapted for the Indonesian market, the user interface of this device is in Bahasa Indonesia, and is packaged with attractive financing options by Bank Negara Indonesia to enable healthcare providers to purchase and operate their own ultrasound device. Less than two percent of total healthcare practitioners in Indonesia today are equipped with the means to use the technology in their practice. Vscan 1.3 will support the country’s goal to reduce its maternal mortality rate.

Beating cancer through quick detection

GE recently took another step towards its healthymagination vision – bringing better healthcare to more Filipinos – with the Philippines’ National Kidney and Transplant Institute (NKTI) award to KHealth Corporation, a medical device distributor, for a GE Healthcare Cyclotron and a Positron Emission Tomography-Computerized Tomography (PET-CT) system.

GE’s PET-CT scan is an invaluable diagnostic tool that simultaneously performs two individual tests to detect cancer and determine its stage. The highly sensitive PET scan detects the metabolic signal of actively growing cancer cells - a key element in the diagnostic process - while the CT scan creates a detailed image of abnormal cancerous tissues inside the body, including their location and size. To identify any abnormalities, a radiopharmaceutical marker called Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is injected into the patient. This marker will be produced by the Cyclotron machine installed at NKTI. Combined, a PET-CT scan provides doctors with comprehensive information on the disease and allows them to plan treatment effectively.

The Philippines is among the countries with a rapid increase of cancer incidence. Data from the Philippine Cancer Facts and Estimates 2010, which culled and analyzed two decades of cancer information in the country, showed that there were 82,468 new cases of cancer in 2010, and nearly 52,000 Filipinos died in the same year of cancer or cancer-related complications. According to the Department of Health, cancer is the fourth highest killer disease in the Philippines.

Better tools for better practitioners

In August 2012, GE signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Health (MoH) in Vietnam, marking the start of a collaborative journey to increase access to quality healthcare across the country and lower healthcare costs. Under the MoU, GE will work closely with the MoH to cooperate on a study to assess the feasibility of local manufacturing of medical devices for the domestic market and the factors necessary to attract large-scale investments.

Both parties will also work together to offer training and employment opportunities for Vietnamese doctors and medical staff. The MoU is part of GE’s "In-country, For-country" initiative, which focuses on improving local innovation and building products, resources and technology for local needs. The goal is to develop products that are tailored specifically to a country’s environment.

2524 | GE ASEAN

As the largest archipelago in the world―with a staggering 17,000 islands―how does Indonesia, which also has a population in excess of 200 million people, cope with transporting its people even within its borders? Or consider the Philippines, whose position at the far east of ASEAN, in the midst of seas and oceans, necessitates air travel? We cannot even begin to fathom the importance of transportation when we remember that these hundreds of millions of people also need food, mail and a host of other things that require delivery.

Fortunately, GE is in the business of developing locomotives, aircraft engines, and systems that are helping countries in the region improve the transportation infrastructure so crucial to their evolution as modern and integrated market economies. With its partners, GE has over 1,300 aircraft engines in service in the region, accounting for 55 percent of all aircraft engines used. Hence there's a good chance that most of the 82 million people in ASEAN who flew in 2012 flew on a plane powered by GE or its joint venture companies’ engines.* As the world’s leading aircraft engines and locomotives provider, GE does not just support the region’s economy, we partner to move it.

Note: *Figures are based on GE Aviation marketing analysis. GE’s partner engines include engines manufactured by CFM International (a 50/50 joint company between Snecma (Safran) and GE), and engines manufactured by Engine Alliance (a 50/50 joint company between GE and Pratt & Whitney).

Moving

2726 | GE ASEAN

Places to go, people to meet

Due to terrain limitations, ASEAN nations rely heavily on air transport to service intra- and international travel. Over the past two decades, flying has become the means of travel for many as it has become a more affordable and attractive option. The affordability of flying has been heavily influenced by cost reductions enjoyed by airlines who then pass on the savings to consumers―reductions that come from, amongst other things, efficient engines that use less fuel and can be relied on to meet the airline's hectic schedules. It is what helps budget airlines maintain the competitive costs and underpins every national carrier's pride in safe, luxurious and comfortable travel.

AirAsia, Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air, Thai Airways, Vietnam Airlines, Jetstar Pacific, and Malaysia Airlines are amongst our valued customers in the region. We have long partnerships with many of them, as in the case of Thai Airways, whose aircraft have flown over 5 billion miles on GE engines for four decades. This number is still growing. Recently we provided GE90 engines to BOC Aviation, Cebu Pacific, Jetstar Pacific, Mekong Air, Philippine Airlines, Singapore Airlines, SilkAir, Vietjet Air and Vietnam Airlines.

In the case of AirAsia, 200 of its Airbus A320neo aircraft will be powered by LEAP engines which are heavily-rooted in advanced aerodynamics, environmental, and materials technology development. These engines will provide 15 percent better fuel consumption, reduced carbon dioxide emissions, a 50 percent reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions, and up to a 15 decibel reduction in noise―all of which are backed up with legendary reliability and low maintenance costs. In June 2013, AirAsia ordered additional CFM LEAP-1A and CFM56-5B engines to power 100 Airbus A320 aircraft that it is operating. The deal, worth in excess of US$8 billion, expanded on an earlier order due to AirAsia's unbridled confidence of the engine's capabilities. Garuda Airlines has also chosen these LEAP engines to power 10 of its Airbus A320neo aircraft.

Navigating through new aviation territory

GE and AirAsia, together with the Malaysia Department of Civil Aviation (DCA), are currently working on an initiative that is changing the way we fly. GE is implementing the world's first network of International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Required Navigation Performance Authorization Required (RNP AR) flight paths designed by a third-party in Malaysia, which is set to be deployed at 15 Malaysian airports. The program includes GE-designed ICAO 9905-compliant RNP AR approach paths, which is the highest-performing type of

performance based navigation (PBN) procedure that allows aircraft to fly precisely-defined paths without relying on ground-based radio-navigation signals. It can also be designed to shorten the distance of an aircraft's flight en-route, reducing fuel burn, exhaust emissions and noise pollution. The technology's reliability can help air traffic controllers reduce flight delays and moderate air traffic congestion.

GE will be designing, deploying, validating and maintaining a network of precise RNP procedures to utilize AirAsia's A320 fleet performance characteristics. Kuching and Penang International Airports were the first to undergo evaluation work. GE will also provide education and training for the flight crew, technical staff, dispatchers and air traffic controllers.

In November 2013, AirAsia received approval to fly Required Navigation Performance (RNP) flight paths in Malaysia, with support from GE Aviation. The Malaysia Department of Civil Aviation Authority (DCA), the regulator and air navigation service provider, granted the nation’s first RNP operations approval following a successful RNP flight validation conducted at Penang.

To date, GE Aviation’s Flight Efficiency Services has delivered flight procedures for nine airports; Penang, Kuching, Langkawi, Johor Bahru, Miri, Sibu, Sandakan, Tawau and Kota Bharu, with the remaining six airports to follow.

Powering a quantum leap

One of GE's longstanding partners in ASEAN, Garuda Indonesia, was a natural partner of choice to open the CFM56-7B engine test cell at its Garuda Maintenance Facility (GMF). The engine test cell, which was inaugurated in February 2013, is a strategic step that will help Garuda Indonesia enhance GMF AeroAsia’s engine shop capabilities, in line with international safety and maintenance standards. In the test cell, engines are hung in a larger chamber and measured through various sensors that mimic various actual flying conditions. The development stage also involved GMF’s engineers, which provided opportunities for technology and knowledge transfer to GMF employees.

This collaboration with GE is part of Garuda Indonesia’s transformation program, “Quantum Leap 2011 – 2015,” to strengthen the capability of its subsidiary, GMF AeroAsia, and support its vision to become a global player. Garuda Indonesia has ordered more than 400 GE and CFM aircraft engines, including the CFM56-7B, CFM56-5B, LEAP-1A, CF34-8C, and GE90-115B engines.

28 | GE ASEAN 29

Center of excellence for outstanding aviation

Malaysia Airlines (MAS) and GE jointly established an aircraft engine overhaul facility at the Malaysia Airlines Aero facility in Subang, Malaysia, in 1997. GE Engine Service Malaysia, the first of its kind in Southeast Asia, services the engines of not only the MAS fleet but also GE’s regional and global customers. The joint venture focuses on the overhaul and repair of CFM56 engines as well as other engine types in the MAS fleet.*

GE Engine Service Malaysia is one such example of how GE contributes to the growth of supply chains by providing maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services for aircraft engines in Malaysia besides servicing over 20 airlines. The MRO network in Malaysia involves over 250 individuals guided by the Lean Six Sigma Principles, and their service attests to global best practices and technological know-how in aviation that support the up-skilling of locals.

As a result of this facility, GE provides better regional customer support service and helps reduce ownership cost of GE engines, which is vital to its growing customer base in the region. The benefits to the country, GE, and regional customers are also significant: Malaysia has upgraded its current aerospace technological capability, accelerating its ability to develop indigenous technology while moving towards becoming an aerospace hub.

Moving 200 million people

GE has been supporting Indonesia’s railway system for 60 years from the time its national railway, PT KAI, bought its first GE locomotive. As of today, there are more than 320 GE locomotives in operation there, transporting 200 million people annually. Taking this partnership further, GE's collaboration with PT KAI has broken new ground with the development of a center of excellence, Balai Yasa Yogya, which is a part of GE's investment in the country's transportation and talent development.

Note:*CFM56 and LEAP engines are products of CFM International, a 50/50 joint company between GE and Snecma (Safran).

3130 | GE ASEAN

ASEAN is constituted primarily of developing countries, some of which have only very recently transitioned from the primary to secondary sectors of economy. As the region comes to terms with capital development, which will take time, youth unemployment issues will need to be addressed and a whole generation of young people will need to be equipped with skills and training. Moreover, women are beginning to come to the forefront all across ASEAN with talent development needs to make them relevant to today’s and tomorrow's workforce needs.

Drawing on its global resources, GE is empowering the region’s workforce through knowledge transfer, capacity-building, and training, while its capital and partnership agreements are helping companies grow, develop their operations and achieve their ambitions. GE is not just watching as the region realizes its future. We partner to help build it .

Building

3332 | GE ASEAN

Realizing a nation's potential

In the next five years, GE will spend more than US$300 million in Indonesia to support the country’s focus on infrastructure development. As part of this commitment, GE will partner with PLN, Garuda Indonesia and Pertamina to develop the GE Learning and Technology Center which will serve as a center for leadership and engineering, and localization of GE applied technology.

GE has, at present, on-going learning programs with key customers namely the GE-Garuda Leadership Institute, GE-Pertamina Oil and Gas University, GE-KAI Leadership Development, and GE-PLN Leadership Development. The new GE Learning and Technology Center announced in February 2013 will centralize all these learning activities that we have with our partners, and extend the programs and facilities to other partners and customers.

The investment will see GE strengthening its presence in the country, increase local content of its technology and solutions and contribute in a significant way to human resource development and local talent building.

Working in the present for the future

An upcoming GE Engineering Center in Vietnam will provide 200 young engineers with the opportunity to work on product design, application, and servicing in the oil and gas sector in Vietnam and the region. The Center, which is located in Ho Chi Minh City, will focus primarily on subsea systems and it will, in the long term, be subsequently expanded to accommodate application engineering, production design, and servicing for other businesses including, but not limited to, power and water, and healthcare.

Leadership programs

Women’s Network

The Women’s Network accelerates the advancement of over 100,000 women at GE, cultivating their leadership skills, business practices, contacts and career opportunities. The network was created in 1997, with 42 hubs in the United States and Europe to accelerate female employees’ advancement at GE. Today, that mission extends to the network’s 171 hubs located in 45 countries around the world. The mission of the network, which is a volunteer organization made up of GE employees, is to enhance the role, competency, and visibility of women in each country's workforce. In ASEAN there are six hubs that are a part of the network, with representation in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Women’s Network hub in Thailand joined forces with GE Volunteers to raise US$3,000 for the Camillian Social Center in Rayong which provides care to orphaned children living with HIV/AIDS as well as terminally-ill patients. In 2012, GE Malaysia was conferred the best Workplace Practices and Women Empowerment award by the Malaysian government - a testament to GE’s commitment towards diversity and the hard work of the Women's Network in Malaysia.

Ecomagination

Ecomagination is GE's commitment to build innovative solutions for today's environmental challenges without compromising on economic growth. The initiative was launched in 2005 to address critical challenges, including the need for cleaner and more-efficient sources of energy, reduced emissions and abundant sources of clean water. Since then, GE has been using its unique energy, technology, manufacturing and infrastructure capabilities to meet customers' needs in these areas.

GE’s ecomagination products support ASEAN infrastructure from the smallest light bulbs to the biggest aircraft engines. GE’s Jenbacher gas engines are powering the San Pedrol landfill in Laguna, the Philippines. This is the first landfill gas power plant in the country that uses methane generated by the landfill as an energy source for the gas engines, thereby reducing the emission of methane, a harmful greenhouse gas.A leading Cambodian industrial conglomerate, SOMA Group, has selected GE's Waukesha gas engines to power a new rural, rice husk biomass energy project. The project is Cambodia's first integrated biomass gasification gas engine solution which will use rice husk waste as a reliable source of biogas to produce much-needed renewable energy in its rural areas.

In Malaysia, GE signed an agreement with Malaysian company Green & Smart Sdn Bhd (GNS), which entails providing a proven solution for waste-to-power using GNS' patented technology in anaerobic digesters and GE's Jenbacher gas engine technology to produce power and supply to the Malaysian electricity grid.

GE’s LM6000 Aeroderivative gas turbine technology enables lower fuel consumption per unit power output than competitive technologies, yielding fuel cost savings, and less nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide emissions for turbine operators. In Indonesia, combined with other GE gas turbines, the aeroderivative technology is generating more efficient power to help meet the country’s electrification goals.

In the air, GE90-115B aircraft engines power Garuda Indonesia, Thai Airways, and Vietnam Air. The GE90 engine significantly limits fuel consumption and restricts hydrocarbon emissions to 40 percent of the level permitted by current international standards. In the coming years, the CFM LEAP engine will join the fleet of AirAsia, BOC Aviation, Garuda Indonesia, Jetstar, Lion Air, and SilkAir. The LEAP engine has 15 percent better fuel consumption, low carbon dioxide emissions, 50 percent fewer oxides of nitrogen emissions, and will reduce noise emissions by 75 percent, making flying more comfortable and less harmful to the environment.

healthymagination

healthymagination is about providing better health for more people by focusing on improving quality, expanding access and increasing affordability of care. It is a US$6 billion strategy which was launched in 2009. Through this strategy, we are leveraging technology, people and partnerships to transform how healthcare practitioners treat disease, empower communities to get healthier, and help build a healthcare system that helps people live better lives.

GE has over 65 healthymagination products including the Vscan, the pocket-sized, battery-powered ultrasound device. In ASEAN, the Vscan is being used by physicians to improve access to maternal and infant care in rural Indonesia and also by trained clinicians and cardiologists in the remote jungle villages of East Malaysia.

In 2012 we launched Vscan 1.3 especially for the Indonesian market. This device supports our efforts to help reduce Indonesia's maternal mortality rate by 75 percent by 2015, one of the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals.

HealthAhead

HealthAhead is how we live healthymagination at GE. It’s what we call our culture of health. Our goals for HealthAhead are to partner with GE employees and their families around the world to help them live and work in the healthiest way possible. Through this initiative, we aim to decrease health-related absences and strive to manage the growing cost of healthcare for both our employees and GE.

GE citizenship

Citizenship at GE is more than a program or a set of good intentions - it is a full-time commitment built upon GE’s values and actions. These actions are integrated directly with the business strategy similar to the company’s business operations. We have a defined strategy, goals, and metrics that make it actionable and accountable. At the heart of GE’s approach is a simple framework: make money, make it ethically and make a difference. This is an integrated approach, as each piece depends on the others for overall success.

GE Volunteers

For more than a century, volunteerism has been a vibrant part of GE’s culture, as both an individual employee activity as well as an organizational effort. We coordinate our resources ― including products, matching gifts, grants and people ― to create responses tailored to local and individual challenges. In ASEAN over 4,000 employees contributed more than 30,000 hours to volunteer work in 2012.

GE Foundation

GE Foundation, the philanthropic organization of GE, works to solve some of the world’s most difficult problems. With its partners, the foundation focuses its efforts in the areas of health, education, the environment and disaster relief. In 2012, the GE family invested more than US$200 million in global community and educational needs.

GE Scholar-Leader Fellowship

The GE Scholar-Leader Fellowship is administered in select universities in Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. In addition to covering education costs, GE provides leadership sessions and interactions with GE managers to help students further understand GE’s culture and leadership initiatives. We also established a cooperation program between Vietnam National University‘s and Duke University’s Masters Program in Public Policy for Environment Protection in Vietnam.

Developing Health Globally

The Developing Health Globally (DHG) program is GE Foundation’s philanthropic program that aims to improve access to quality healthcare for some of the world’s most vulnerable populations. Established in 2004, the DHG program aims to strengthen healthcare systems in the developing world by upgrading equipment and infrastructure, and providing ongoing training and support which are critical to the success and sustainability of those systems.

In Cambodia, the DHG program has actively supported 31 public hospitals by providing new medical equipment in key areas, such as the casualty ward, ICU, operating theater, labor and delivery wards, nursery, radiology unit and laboratory. In partnership with Calmette Hospital, we provided in-depth clinical training to healthcare staff on monitoring, anesthesia, ultrasound and X-ray.

In Indonesia we are partners with the Ministry of Health to increase the survival rate of newborn babies. SMS text messaging will be used to expand midwives’ ability to connect with new mothers and follow up on their care in the 30 days after delivery. New mothers will also receive timely information to help identify health warnings and seek appropriate care from a skilled provider during the postpartum and postnatal periods.

With the Ministry of Health and Jhpiego, a non-profit organization, we are working to help reduce maternal infection in Myanmar by implementing safe birthing practices that can be leveraged in large and small facilities across the country. As a part of the effort, GE Foundation will provide the tools and equipment necessary for safe birthing and the treatment of newborn respiratory distress and jaundice.
