BACKGROUND.<br />

CG Computers Sdn Bhd was the brainchild of both<br />

Mr Li Chau Ging and wife, Peggy. CG Computers was<br />

established in 1995 when Li decided to set up<br />

a company dedicated to serving the Apple market<br />

through the company’s leading brand—<strong>Switch</strong>.<br />

Apart from being the longest serving Apple Premium<br />

Reseller in Malaysia, <strong>Switch</strong> also attained the status<br />

of Apple Gold Service Provider (certified Apple Repair<br />

Centre) in Asia. Li’s interest in the Apple brand began<br />

in university, and flourished even more in his first job.<br />

However, after being a self-appointed Apple<br />

ambassador, he realised that there was so much<br />

more that could be done to uphold the Apple image.<br />

This led Li to establish CG Computers with monetary<br />

support from his parents.<br />

Today, CG Computers owns 6 brand names including<br />

<strong>Switch</strong>, Urban Republic, Urban Coffee, Erafone<br />

Malaysia, Samsung Experience Store (Kuching) and<br />

a Service App called “Techero”. In 2014, Indonesia’s<br />

retail giant, PT Erajaya Swasembada (Erajaya), acquired<br />

60% of CG Computers.<br />

Li Chau Ging<br />

Managing Director<br />

CG Computers Sdn Bhd.<br />

CG Computers Sdn Bhd continues to service and<br />

supply products to a wide market, which includes<br />

institutions, design and printing press firms,<br />

accounting firms, multi-national corporations as well<br />

as home users. CG Computers practices an innovative<br />

and transparent corporate culture, choosing a more<br />

casual employer-employee relationship.<br />

With a total of 35 retails in Malaysia, and 650 retail<br />

outlets in Indonesia, CG Computers and Erajaya group<br />

show no signs of stopping.

CREW TRAINING<br />

BY PROFESSIONAL TRAINER | KANT, MALCOLM, JOSHUA.<br />

VOL. 001 Page/017<br />

To ensure both customer experience and customer training<br />

are well in place, of course we would need to train our own<br />

crews in the first place.<br />

| Crew training are basically performed when:<br />

| We have a new candidate that would be deployed in any<br />

of our outlets.<br />

| Existing crews are trained to refresh and enhance<br />

their knowledge.<br />

| A new production launch or product update takes place,<br />

to ensure crews are able to cope with the change.<br />

Crew training is done on a regular basis to ensure all crews are<br />

in line with the company’s direction as well as well informed<br />

on the current products in our outlets. Indirectly it also improves<br />

morale of our crews as training helps the employees get job<br />

security and job satisfaction.
