Hi, I'm currently interested with the award given by Majlis Rekabentuk Malaysia (Malaysia Design Council) and looking if anyone here experience in participating this award.

The award is basically given to companies in Malaysia with reputable product design but so far not many people aware of this even when it was started at the end of the 90's.

Looking forward for those whom involve in receiving this award.

never heard of this but interesting, will share it with my industrial design frineds

Well I'm not surprise if you're unaware of if because most of the award recipient said the same from the market. This award existed since 1997 if I'm not mistaken, which is my purpose of doing this research.

May I know which industry you're in or your friends are in? There are around 13 categories:

1. Architecture and Environmental Products
2. Commerce and Trade Fair Products Products
3. Craft Products
4. Household, Kitchen and Bathroom Products
5. Industrial Products
6. Jewellery, Fashion and Accessories Products
7. Leisure, Hobbies and Sports Products
8. Living Room and Bedroom Products
9. Media and Home Electronics Products
10. Medicine and Rehabilitation Products
11. Office and Administration Products
12. Packaging Products
13. Public Areas and Transportation Products

Anyway, thanks for your feedback
