Groom Big Program identifies potential and aspiring small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to be nutured by both MITI and MPC through training programs, mentor-mentee consulting services and site visits. Mitti Cable Sdn Bhd manufactures and supplies cables and electronic gadgets to some major utility and communication companies in Malaysia. Several ARI researchers have been selected by MPC to conduct accounting-related training programs, which include among others: Financial statement analysia, financial management, overhead management, costing and other management accounting courses. ARI has also been entrusted by MPC to write case studies of eight Groom Big companies. During their recent site visit to Mitti Cable Sdn Bhd, the researchers met up with the Group Managing Director  Dato’ Mohd Saffian Azizul  Rahman and his management team.  The researchers were then taken to visit Mitti's three main factories namely "Electronics Cables", "Power Cables" and "Telephone Cables".  In a nutshell, Mitti's infrastructures and new export market potentials are very promising indeed.  Congratulations..
