Malaysian Business Degelation To Visit Myanmar
KUALA LUMPUR, May 24 Asia Pulse - A 55-member Malaysian delegation,
comprising business executives from various economic sectors and
representatives of
the National Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia (NCCIM), will
be in
Yangon next week to explore opportunities in forging smart business
partnerships with
their Myanmar counterparts.
Led by NCCIM president Tajudin Ramli, the group will participate in the
Malaysian-Myanmar Smart Partnership Business Networking session, which
is a
one-to-one business contact session with potential Myanmar partners
with the view to
facilitate strategic Malaysian-Myanmar business alliances.
In a statement Saturday, NCCIM said the delegation would also exchange
views with
their Asean counterparts on critical business issues during meetings
of the
Asean-Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Asean-CCI) and Asean-CCI Business
Forum there.
NCCIM said the visit was in line with its efforts to promote greater
interaction between
Malaysian businessmen and their Asean counterparts to forge new
partnerships and
fresh business ideas.
It said the Asean-CCI Business Forum on Wednesday would focus on small
and
medium size enterprise (SME) issues -- a clear recognition by Asean-CCI
of the role of
the SMEs in regional recovery.
Over 250 participants from Asean and its dialogue partner countries,
including senior
government officials from Myanmar and Asean business leaders, are
expected to attend
the business forum which, among others, would discuss issues such as
investment
opportunities in Myanmar, promotion of foreign direct investment within
Asean
economies and development of SMEs in the region.
On Thursday, the mission participants will attend the 56th Asean-CCI
Council Meeting to be chaired by its current president, Tajudin.
