"Malaysia needs to continuously invest and develop its human capital in order to compete effectively in the global arena. Administrative professionals are a vital component of any business organization and Ricoh is committed to promote professional development and recognition of their roles," said Lim Eng Weng, Managing Director of Ricoh (Malaysia) Sdn.
