“One District One Industry” Programme – Orang Asli Village in Carey Island,
Selangor
The “One District One Industry” Programme or Program Satu Daerah Satu Industri
(SDSI) 91 in Malaysia is an adaptation of the “One Village One Product”
Programme that was first introduced in Japan. 92 The underlying concepts of the
SDSI are to identify local products/services from a district having high commercial
potential, and to provide support to the locals to develop, promote and market
those products/services in order to enhance the local community’s capacity to
generate income. 93
At the initial stage of implementation, the SDSI in Malaysia was executed without
any form of coordination, whereby different agencies autonomously implemented
their own approaches to support locals to develop their products/services. 94
However, in 2004, a Cabinet Directive called for a more organised employment of
ICU, ‘Garis Panduan Perlaksanaan Program Satu Daerah Satu Industri (SDSI)’, (Jabatan Perdana Menteri,
2012) 8, 12, 13 <http://www.icu.gov.my/pdf/arh_pk/gp_sdsi_2012.pdf> accessed 6 October 2014;
Implementation Coordination Unit (ICU), Prime Minister’s Department, ‘Program Satu Daerah Satu Industri
(SDSI), 5 <http://www.icu.gov.my/pdf/artikel/slide_sdsi.pdf>; accessed 26 September 2014. The SDSI evolved
from being implemented as One Village One Product (Satu Kampung Satu Produk) in 1992, to One Village One
Industry (Satu Kampung Satu Industri) in 2002, to SDSI in 2003. A coordinated implementation of the SDSI in
Malaysia stemmed from a Cabinet directive in 2004.
