Rubber Industry Smallholders Development Authority

RISDA traces its roots to 1952 with the establishment of the Rubber Industry Replanting Board (RIRB) which headquartered at the District Office in Jalan Raja, Kuala Lumpur.It commenced operations on 8 February 1973, taking over many functions of its predecessor agency, the RIRB and its launch was officiated by the-then Prime Minister, Abdul Razak Hussein.[1][9][10] In 1978, RISDA announced it went on to venture the plantation business to help upgrade its service to rubber industry smallholders in Malaysia, particularly in the state of Perak.[15][16] In December 2010, the agency established RISDA Entrepreneurs Club (RISEC) with the aim to empowering rubber smallholders in generating the nation's income.[18][19] The college, which was located in Alor Gajah, Malacca, also offers academic study programs at certificate and diploma levels.
