Seems like Canon is doing very well here in Malaysia.

Canon Marketing Malaysia has seen a 70% surge in profits so far this year over 2005, recording its highest profits since its incorporation 19 years ago.

In a statement on Dec 22, Canon Malaysia said its performance was achieved against a backdrop of rising unit sales of Canon products and more efficient operations.

It did not reveal the profit amount, nor the specific financial period.

“Although there was only 5% revenue growth due to declining price points, Canon notched a signification growth of 30% in unit sales in five of our primary consumer and business products as well as hikes in market shares,” said its president and chief executive officer Liew Sip Chon (pic ) .

“This was supported by the steady demand for consumer products and businesses, from SMEs to the public sector, pouring in more investment into technology in their pursuit for efficiency and more effective processes.

Pretty big growth!

Hi, my name is Michael. Normally known around the net as Michaelooi, the unscrupulous guy who writes inane stuffs on his blog for his sheer twisted self absorbing pleasure. Whatever.

But there’s one side of me that not many people know of - that is my naturally given aptitude in arts and photography which have made me millions of bucks. Alright, I lied. I’m just another guy who’s very compassionate in arts and never became good enough of it to be a professional. And it has been 8 years since I’ve been doing this - capturing the sights that I love with my cameras, or any photography equipment I happen to lay my hands on.

But that’s not important really. What’s more important, is that I’ve been given a chance to showcase amongst the worst of my work here to torture your mind, and we’ll have to thanks Digisniper for that. Constructive feedbacks will be appreciated.

My cameras : Canon EOS 350D, Nikon FM2, Sony F707, Canon Ixus 500, Minolta Riva Zoom Pico (sometimes even disposable cameras…)
My photoblog : Capacity Overload

This picture was taken outside my apartment a few months ago. It’s the same view I see when I go to work every morning. It was on that morning, that the shutterbug bit me and got me into capturing this view…

Canon EOS 350D F8 4″ ISO100
