“We are honoured to support Malaysia’s vision of becoming a key aerospace node in the region as outlined in the country’s Aerospace Blueprint 2030. The opening of Boeing’s new expanded corporate office in Kuala Lumpur reflects our deep commitment to the Malaysian government, our employees, customers and partners in the country,” said Penny Burtt, president, Boeing Southeast Asia. “This office will serve as a pivotal hub to advance our efforts in customer support, aviation safety, sustainability and supply chain in Malaysia, home to one of the largest aviation markets in Asia-Pacific.”

YB Liew Chin Tong, Deputy Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) Malaysia, said, “I welcome Boeing’s continued support in driving forward Malaysia’s Aerospace Blueprint 2030. With this office expansion, Boeing has reaffirmed its commitment to fostering a resilient and sustainable supply chain anchored in Malaysia, to the whole Asia Pacific region. With our robust industrial ecosystem, strategic geographical position and stable talent supply, Malaysia is well-positioned to be an aerospace hub for the region. We also appreciate Boeing’s efforts in developing local talent to support its operations in Bukit Kayu Hitam, Kedah.”

Edgard D. Kagan, the United States Ambassador to Malaysia, said, “This is a terrific example of an American company committed to the Malaysian market.  What they're doing is good for the United States and good for Malaysia.  Boeing mirrors the efforts of so many other American companies to develop Malaysian workers, integrate Malaysia into their global supply chain, and commit to helping Malaysia and Malaysians increase their competitiveness in the aerospace sector--all while strengthening the U.S. economy back home.”
