KK集团隆重欢庆21周年
（吉隆坡1日讯）KK集团创办人兼执行主席拿督斯里蔡志权博士在KK集团21週年晚宴上指出，以欧美日韩等国的便利店市场供需情况看来，大马便利店行业的市场，充满发展濳力。
他说，调查显示，发达国家平均每2000人口对比1间便利店，因此以大马3200万人口来算，便需要至少1万6000间便利店才能应付市场需求；而目前大马市面上仅有约5000间各品牌便利店。
“根据数据，在美国每间便利店服务2100人；日本则是1对2200，及韩国则是1对1250。”
他指出，KK集团至今已拥有636间分店，而且业务仍在继续扩充及攀向另一个高峰，并且期望服务更多的社群、人民，为国家发展作出贡献。
针对即将在国会提呈的2023年财政预算案，蔡志权建议，政府应该以更高的视角看待如何协助国家走出眼前的困境,以便国内的企业可以持续生存,以商为本,以民为先,以商养民,让企业商家负起责任,为人民提供就业机会，为人民提供持续性的收入。
