SEED Programme

We’re
planting the SEED of opportunities.

Through our Socio-Economic Enhancement Development (SEED) Programme, Sarawak Metro is committed towards capitalising on the investments made for the KUTS project.

The development of many cities has been intertwined with the development of their mass transit systems, which in turn creates opportunities and provides benefits for its people especially in terms of business prospects and job creation. Hence, capacity building and capability building programmes are needed to address gaps in the labour market and industrial development.

The SEED Programme will be used as a platform to acquire new capacity and capability that will generate additional industrial and economic activities. This is in line with the aspiration of the Sarawak Government to enhance economic growth, to produce more skilled manpower, to be competitive and to be a high-income and developed state by 2030.

Key Benefits

Generate a More Capable Workforce
Export Knowledge and Expertise Globally
Create Added Value from Investments
Generate Employment & Economic Opportunities
Capitalise on Emerging Markets & Technology
Strengthen Sarawak’s Public Transport System

How it Works?

The SEED Programme was initiated to generate positive net revenue from investments made through KUTS project.

The implementation concept is quite similar to the Industrial Collaboration Programme implemented under Ministry of Finance Malaysia through a policy under the Federal procurement process, whereby the foreign contractors/suppliers agree to transfer extra economic activities to the buyer as a condition for the sales of goods or services. Similar offset programmes have also been widely practised in other countries such as Austria, Canada and Saudi Arabia especially in high technology related procurement such as defence and aerospace.
