Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the official launch ceremony of the Wanita MyWira Accelerator 2025.

Today marks more than just the beginning of a programme, it reflects a bold national commitment to advancing gender equality in the workforce. The Wanita MyWira Accelerator aims to equip Malaysian women with the skills, flexibility, and support needed to succeed in high-growth sectors such as AI, digital, and the green economy. Through targeted training, returnships, and employer partnerships, this initiative strives to empower over 100,000 women by 2030, while promoting inclusive, family-friendly work environments across the nation.

On behalf of TalentCorp, KESUMA, KPWKM, and the World Economic Forum, we thank you for witnessing this significant milestone. Let us move forward together in building a workforce where every woman can return, remain, and rise, for the benefit of our families, our economy, and our shared future.

Thank you, and we wish you a pleasant and productive afternoon ahead.
