InTune is based in, and operates from, Malaysia, a South East Asia region with its own challenges and opportunities. For example, currently both economically and politically the country is not very stable. Following the COVID-19 pandemic there have been rising costs and thinner margins, with many industries still struggling to fully recover. A lot of extra employment related costs are being passed on to SMEs, such as an increase in minimum wage, an increased amount of maternity and paternity leave, and other additional staff costs that are being recommended. It is also currently very challenging to look for and find suitable talent to hire. On the other hand, there are certainly opportunities to be found for InTune working out of Malaysia. For instance, although staff might be hard to find, there is definitely a noticeable rise in the requirement for businesses to turn to outsourcing as an alternative. SMEs are certainly becoming more open to InTune Outsourcing, given the current circumstances. InTune Outsourcing is unique in many different ways that sets it apart from its competitors.
