Pausing For Reflection

Yeo Eng Ping delves into the science of making adjustments to ensure sustainable growth.

The unexpected change of government has been transformative for Malaysia, and no one appreciates this more than Yeo Eng Ping, the Asia- Pacific Tax Leader at Ernst & Young Malaysia. But with change, she points out, comes a period of adjustment.

“Others outside Malaysia see this change as a positive thing. Positive change is good because it usually spurs a nation to do better in all fields. It also generates new perspectives and ideas for improvement – especially in how businesses can operate more effectively. So, from the outside looking in, things are looking very positive indeed for Malaysia.

“Internally at Ernst & Young, we’ve also gone through our own adjustment period. As part of this process, we have had to build new relationships with parties that we have not interacted with before. But of course, this is also a positive thing as it opens up new avenues, and our business has fared well as a result!”
