NSTnation Miti: 58pct electrical items in M'sian market substandard

He said the electrical appliances were not certified and not in compliance with the Malaysian standard.

Sirim Bhd’s unit, Sirim QAS International Sdn Bhd and its partners -- Energy Commission, Malaysian Electrical Appliances Distributors Association and the Federation of Malaysian Electrical Appliances Dealers’ Association -- have embarked on a nine-month long campaign to increase the awareness on the importance of Sirim-ST approved appliances among consumers, manufacturers and importers.

Apart from safety awareness, he said the campaign also aimed to protect the manufacturers and to ensure that all distributors -- both online and offline -- provide good quality products to the consumers. “For now, we do not want to put any unnecessary restrictions on e-commerce activities to control people from bringing in such product, but rather, we want to empower consumers to make the right choice,” he said.
